The word Tarīqah linguistically means “manner” or “method” and
in reference to the field of Tasawwuf, it refers to a school or
order, e.g. the Chishtī Tarīqah, Naqshbandī Tarīqah, Shādhilī
Tarīqah etc. Tariqah in relation to Tasawwuf is
analogous to the word “madhhab” in relation to the schools of
Fiqh. The science of Fiqh concerns itself with the
external injunctions and regulations pertaining to things such as
salāh, fasting, stealing, interest etc., and the science of
Tasawwuf concerns itself with the internal injunctions and
regulations pertaining to things such as praiseworthy qualities, e.g.
gratefulness, patience, sincerity etc. and reprehensible qualities,
e.g. pride, ostentation and greed etc.
