In Sufism, the wazifa ( ; plural: wazaïf) is a regular litany practiced by followers and comprising Quranic verses, hadiths of supplication and various Duas.

==Presentation== It is recorded in the various rituals of the Sufis that one of their main invocations takes place with an individual or collective daily and weekly dhikr and wird known as wazifa. This wazifa thus refers only to the part of this ritual devoted to the invocation of the supreme qualities of Allah Almighty.
