He emphasizes the significance of the transmission of spiritual knowledge and the transformative power of the connection between guide and guided. The lecture also explores the attributes of the murshid, highlighting their role as a reflection of divine qualities such as al-Hādi (The Guide) and al-‘Alīm (The Knower).
