Abstract

Knowledge is sacred in itself. And the reason for its sanctity is the efforts of man to achieve it, which have not been done to There are millions of followers belonging to the "Zhikri" sect in Pakistan's Baluchistan province, especially in Makran Division and Sindh, as well as in Iranian Balochistan. Not much material is available about the history and teachings of the Zikri sect, hence little information is available about the sect. This sect is counted among those sects and traditions, whose tradition was transmitted from breast to breast. The reason for this sect is Tasmiya, their frequent mention of God. There is no exact information about the date of the beginning of this sect and its founder, there is also a difference in the accounts. Due to the greater emphasis on the remembrance of God, the place of worship of the dhikrs is also called the "zikrkhana".
