This book presents a story of the sincere search for the true religion and the divine guidance, which led to the ultimate destination. Hazrat Moulana Yunus Patel Saheb (rahmatullahi alaihi) narrated this incident, presenting detail and explanation in the lessons derived.
The discourse leaves one with deep appreciation for the tremendous bounties of Imaan and Islam and the great fortune of being followers of Nabi Muhammad (sallalllahu alaihi wasallam).
This book was completed during Hazrat Moulana's lifetime in Muharram 1424 (March 2003) and also includes a few complementary extracts from another talk of Hazrat Moulana (rahmatullahi alaihi)

Following the traditions of the Ehl-e-Haq (Truth Bearers), Khanqah revives the rare traditions of Sulook, Tazkia, & Tasawwuf while staying clear of all kinds of Bidda’hs (innovations in the religion) and complies strictly with the rules and boundaries prescribed by the Sharia.

The topic of Sufi institutions on Wikipedia is getting confused and fragmented. As of April 2024, we now have a new WP:CONTENTFORK with the conversion of Takya, previously a redirect here, into another article about effectively the same thing but with a different title, covering some areas but not others, as this article also does. That's in addition to Takyeh, Zawiya, Dargah, and others (though at least the first two are more focused on specific regions). The differences in practices and functions of these institutions vary based on period/region/tariqa; the use of different terms does not necessarily denote a different function, certainly not in a consistent way across the Islamic world. Since this is a global English encyclopedia, not a regional reference, different non-English terms do not necessarily correspond to different topics here, as Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Aside from the POV problems and content forks it creates, it also makes it impractical for readers and editors to find the correct link to the article they need.
As this is the older article by far, Takya should be merged back here and we should instead consider moving this article to use a more inclusive title (probably more descriptive and in English), with the native terminology then explained separately and other articles dealing with subtopics for particular regions, periods, tariqas, etc. R Prazeres ( talk) 18:51, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
Khānaqāh (or khānqāh) is a Persian word for the place where Muslim mystics gather. It was, and still is, used mainly in Iran, Afghanistan, Central Asia, western China, and the Indian subcontinent. Other terms were more common elsewhere, such as zāwiya in Arab lands, Africa, and Indonesia, and tekke in Turkey and the Balkans. All these terms are often interchangeable. Usually translated as “Ṣūfī lodge” (rather than “convent”) in English, the khānaqāh is a room or an establishment where Ṣūfīs assemble around a spiritual master to perform rituals (often by night or in darkness) and to share meals, to communicate with one another, and to follow spiritual teachings.
