Naqshbani tareeqa is the fastest - Some people may find it offensive, - Obviously our intention is not to insult - If you follow the lecture of the Ghazali's work, I spoke about that in detailed - To understand this we should know the meaning of ''Suluk'' and ''Jazb'' - Lets talk about two Suluki tareeqas; 1. Shadhili; They say; the progress that you do by Dhikr you will nullify by some sins. That's why first you have to finish off these sins that may confuse your progress. Otherwise, it could be that the status that you gain in one year of Dhikr you lose by committing one sin (slandering for example) - So, in order to carry on progressing you need to make sure that you get rid of your habits of committing sin - You have to go through several durus of muraqaba - In each you will be fighting with several sins that you addicted to - So, you will clean yourself from the most destructive sins that nullifies your progress - Minimum period of this is about two years (even thou I haven't seen any one who crossed it in this period) - Some of the Shadhili mureeds that I know cross it in 10-20 years but majority don't cross it but will be stuck some where within these durus - Shadhilis class the following sins as most common and destructive; Slander, Backbiting, Lying, Cursing, Beating (beating will nullify every thing straight away) - As you see, its not so quick! - I had a deal with Shadhilis very well, so I know them - I know a lot of them addicted to slander and falsehood, Even I know some of their peers slanders (well I was slandered by him few times, and I can prove it. And he is proud of slandering!) 2. Qadiris - They have to cross through several different types of ''Nafs'' - First is ''Nafs Ammarah'', second is ''Nafs Lawwama'' - For you to upgrade from the first to second, you have to get rid of your addiction to the sins one by one - And to see where are you spiritually you need to go into the ''Khulwa'' - In khulwa you see things - These things have to be translated by your Peer to see if you've reached to the second nafs - For example you may see an elephant. That will mean that you have an arrogance and you have to work on it to get to the next nafs - And as soon as you reach to ''Nafs mutmainnah'' you have high risk to fall back to nafs ammara again - Most of the mureeds fall back - Then you have to restart every thing from the scratch - Some of the peers even don't know that they are sulukiy - They don't know how to give tarbiya in suluki tareeqah - I would say not some, but most of the peers - But with the naqshbandis - They have ''Wilayah Sughra'', ''Wilayah Kubra'' and ''Wilayatul-Malaika'' - The serious mureed can gain the first one in six months - This battle of the sulukis to gain this first level starts only after purifying their self from the sins! - So, you see the difference - Khuja Ubaidullah sai; The final point of others included in our start point! - And Imam Rabbani confirmed that in ''Maktubat'' - One of the latest Qutbs from Central Asia was Naqshbandi - And he started in very late age - But gained wilaya kubra in such a short period (few months)
