Bayat is derived from Arabic word “bayah” which means deal or agreement between two groups or parties or persons. Likewise Bayat is an agreement or deal between a man and his Creator Allah that the man will hand over his everything to Allah which is actually belongs to Allah already and in reward Allah blesses that person with his vision and closeness.
Bayat is the basic and foremost requirement of Islam. Quran and books of Hadith proved its importance. However the vision, closeness and union with Allah is not possible except taking bayat (oath of allegiance) on sacred hands of a spiritual guide. All the sufi saints especially Sultan ul Arifeen Hazrat SakhiSultan Bahoomentioned bayat in his books so many times.
