Bismillah Rahman Raheem. Tariqa is an Arabic word that means a way. Tariqa is terminology applied by all over the world to mean shortest Straight way of Islam to reach Allah ( God) Subhanahu Wataala, Most Gracious the Exalted is He. Islam is an Arabic word that means Submission to Allah (God).

So Tariqa simply means shortest straight way for Submission to Allah ( God). This Straight way, is mentioned in mandatory prayers as the way of prophets and pious believers, but not the way of those who earned Allah’s Anger nor those who are Lost, in the first chapter of Quran called Suratul fatiha. Saying:

Alhamdu Lillah Rabil Alamen Arahman Raheem, Malik Yawmi Deen , Iyaka Na’bud wa Iyaaka Nastaeen, Ihdina Siratal Mustaqeema, Sirata Ladheen An,amra aleihim Gharil Maghdhubi aleihim wala Dhaaleen
