Transliteration:( Wa kaifa tasbiru 'alaa maa lam tuhit bihee khubraa )
155. This tells us Shariah is a name given to outward knowledge while Tareeqat is based on hidden knowledge and mystic secrets. Hazrat Musa (On whom be peace) was the Imam of Shariah, but Hazrat Khizr (On whom be peace) was the expert of Tareeqat. Therefore, the works, which Hazrat Khizr did, outwardly seemed to be against Shariah.
