  • Ahmad ibn Ajiba said:
The word warid means the traveler and one who comes. It is said, 'So-and-so warada to us,' meaning he came to us. In the technical nomenclature (of the Sufis), the warid is what is gifted by the Real Allah upon the hearts of His saints, the gifts of gentle breezes that grant them the power to move, and perhaps startles them or removes them from their sensory perception. By its nature, it comes suddenly and does not remain for long.[6]
  • Ibn Ata Allah al-Iskandari said:
No one belittles the litany (wird) except a man who is exceedingly ignorant. The warid is to be found in the Hereafter, while the litany vanishes with the vanishing of this world; therefore, it is more fitting to be occupied with something for which there is no substitute. The litany (wird) is what He seeks from you; the warid is what you seek from Him. What comparison is there between what He seeks from you and what you seek from Him![7]

Misconducts

Hazem Abu Ghazaleh said about Sufis' misconducts about the waridates:

Some Seekers (murids) might leave their daily litanies (wirds), arguing that they have too much work to do and too little free time. Their personal devils whisper to them and suggest that this is a legally valid excuse and an acceptable justification, and that it is perfectly fine to delay the litanies until there is free time. The esteemed Sufis have warned the spiritual wayfarers from negligence, procrastination, and waiting for free time.[8]
Some seekers (saliks) might leave their litanies (wirds) and suffice themselves with the warid. They are seemingly unaware that the litany (wird) is sought from them as a means of drawing near to Allah, and that the esteemed Sufis have never neglected their litanies (wirds), no matter what degree of perfection they attained.[9]
