Khwaja-e-Khwajegaan Khwaja Bahauddin Shah Naqshband Radi Allahu anhu gave the following advice about the friends of Allah:
"When you go to visit a friend of Allah, you should examine yourself and analyse your state; if you see that your Deen has improved through this company, then make it incumbent upon yourself to make this company regular." The great Khwaja Radi Allahu anhu further stated, "Tru
e self-analysis is when a saalik continually assesses his own actions; he should regret his shortcomings, thank Allah for his progress and always work tirelessly to improve." When you sit in the company of the friend of Allah, the fayz (overflow of spiritual blessings) that you receive is in fact a reflection of that special gaze." Another point he made was that "The friends of Allah are endowed with the knowledge of many secrets concerning the wonders of creation, but those with this knowledge do not disclose it, whereas those who have no idea talk a lot and pretend they know everything."
