Faqr is the terminology often used by Sufis to refer the way or course that removes all the veils between Allah and man, hence bestowing him with His Vision (Deedar) and Union (Visal).Holy Prophet Mohammad Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam declared Faqr as his pride and attributed Faqr especially to his Holy Self. He Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam said:
Meaning: Faqr is my pride and Faqr is from me. [1]
Faqr means that degree of soul's accession to Allah where His Vision (Deedar) and Union (Visal) were bestowed upon the Holy Prophet Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam at the Night of Accession to Allah (Shab-e-Meraj). He prayed Allah to bestow this great blessing of His Deedar and Visal as a gift for his nation (Ummah). Allah blessed him with the gift of fasts and prayers (salat and saum) for the apparent purity and with the light of Faqr for the internal and intrinsic sanctity of the soul, thus opened the way to access Allah for the ummah of Hazrat Mohammad Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam. Holy Prophet Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam declares:
Meaning: Faqr is my pride and Faqr is from me and Faqr is the reason of my superiority over all the prophets and messengers. (Ain-ul-Faqr)
