The Sultan of the ‘Ulema, al’Iz al-Din ‘Abdu al-Salam wrote:

“The way to Allah is made up of the apparent and the inner. Its apparent path is Shari’ah and its actualization is the inner. Two words bring both the apparent and the inner together: “It is You alone we worship and it is You alone we beseech for assistance.” “It is you Alone we worship” is the Shar’iah and “It is You alone we beseech for help” is the inner.”
