Murid is a Sufi term meaning "committed one" from the root meaning "willpower" or "self-esteem". It refers to a person who is committed to a Murshid (spiritual guide) in a Tariqa (spiritual path) of Sufism. Also known as a Salik or a seeker, a Murid is an initiate into the mystic philosophy of Sufism. When the seeker makes a pledge ( Bay'ah) to a Murshid the seeker becomes initiated as a Murid. The initiation process is known as `ahd or Bai'ath. Before initiation, a Murid is guided and taught by a Murshid or Pir who must first accept the initiate as his or her disciple. Throughout the instruction period, the Murid typically experiences visions and dreams during personal spiritual exercises. These visions are interpreted by the Murshid. A common practice among the early Sufi orders, was to grant a khirqa or a robe to the Murid upon the initiation or after he had progressed through a series of increasingly difficult and significant tasks on the path of mystical development. This practice is not very common now. Murids often receive books of instruction from Murshids and often accompany itinerant Murshids on their wanderings.
