منية المريد (The Desire of the Aspirant — Timbuktu Sufi MS, 1780)

And the age is never devoid of a seeker who has found the awrad daily litanies of this knowledge.
What is required of those who desire them, and what is required of him after taking them:
It is proper for every Muslim, the habit of not visiting the saints is recorded,
Whether they are the dead or the living, and this excludes the companions and the prophets.
There is no harm in some of the poor meaning the disciples/seekers visiting others, and that is according to what has been practiced.
And everyone who took from a Sheikh and visited others, he does not benefit from him, nor the visited.
And we have no purpose in visiting them, because the best of those who command has forbidden us from it.
And with that, we have a correct purpose of benefiting without doubt, as it appeared.
Once for the Jawharat al-Kamal The Jewel of Perfection, a specific prayer in our count, and by it this following.
The Prophetic Presence of the high ranks is a visitation to the master of men.
As if it equates to visiting the messengers, and every pole, prophet, and saint.
