In Sufism, the Wazifa Zarruqiyya (Arabic: الْوَظِيفَةُ الزَّرُّوقِيَّةُ) is a regular wazifa or litany practiced by followers in the Shadhili order of Sufism and whose first line is "the ship of salvation for those who resort to God"' (Arabic: سَفِينَةُ النَّجَا لِمَنْ إِلَى اللَهِ اِلْتَجَا).[1][2]
Presentation
[edit]This wazifa was initiated and compiled by the Maliki Sunni Sufi theologian Ahmad Zarruq (1442–1493 CE), the founder of the Zarruqi branch of Shadhili sufism.[3] to train his murids or followers to recite morning and evening litanies daily.[4] This Muslim scholar and sufi sheikh assembled a panoply of Quranic ayahs and prophetic duas dedicated to the morning and night litanies to which the murids must assiduously submit.[5] Zarruq, who studied in Béjaïa, is well-known in the Muslim world[6]
The components of this wazifa were taken from the "Chapter of the morning and evening Adhkar" in the book written by al-Nawawi (1233–1277) entitled Selected Remembrances from the Words of the Master of the Righteous (Adhkar Nawawiyya ).[7][8]
There is no Sufism except through fiqh, and there is no fiqh but through Sufism.[9]
Practice
[edit]This wazifa is recited individually or collectively after Fajr prayer in the morning and after Asr prayer in the afternoon.[10] The recitation begins with the pronunciation of Ta'awwudh then of Basmala followed by Āyah 163 of Surah al-Baqarah.[11]
Next comes the tilawa of Āyah 1 from Surah Al Imran, followed by Āyah 111 of Surah Ta-Ha and then the Throne verse.[12]
Several verses follow each other in the recitation with a specific repetition for each of them. Then the murid recites authentic duas related by Muhammad, and relating to the morning and evening as well as to personal and congregational well-being.[13]
The content of the wazifa is finally completed with the recitation of the last three verses Āyates 180 to 182 of Surah As-Saaffat.[14]
