چکیده:
Karamat is a supernatural occurrence emanating from the saints (Awliya Allah) and holds a special position in mysticism and Sufism. Various types of karamat are categorized into three main forms: informing of the unseen, knowledge of the subconscious, and influence over the physical world, each comprising several sub-types. Among the sub-types of karamat are influencing the physical world and healing the sick, which sometimes occurred during the lifetime of the person possessing karamat and sometimes after their death. The illnesses involved in this type of karamat were often congenital or chronic diseases that all physicians were unable to treat, or they arose due to a Sheikh's curse. The methods of healing are very diverse; among them, one can mention reciting Surah Hamd, reciting prayers, stroking, blowing, applying saliva, using the belongings of the person with karamat such as clothes, shoes, hats, and toothpicks, sprinkling water, reciting poetry, lifting the illness, the patient's repentance, etc. In most of these karamat, the patient receives complete healing such that sometimes they do not suffer from that illness for the rest of their life. In this article, using a descriptive-analytical method, an attempt has been made to categorize and analyze the various methods of healing karamat mentioned in early mystical prose books.
