Explanation:

The Sufis were divided into fourteen silsilahs (orders) with each silsilah having its own pir (guide) called Khwaja or Sheikh. The pir and his disciples lived in a khanqa (hospice). Abul Fazl while writing in the Ain-i-Akbari speaks of fourteen silsilahs of the Sufis.

These fourteen silsilahs were divided into two types: Ba-shara and Be-shara.

Ba-shara were those orders that followed the Islamic Law (Sharia) and its directives such as namaz and roza. Chief amongst
these were the Chishti, Suhrawardi, Firdawsi, Qadiri and Naqshbandi silsilahs.

The Beshara silsilahs were not bound by the Sharia. The Qalandars belonged to this group.
