The term „spiritual guide‟, known as „Murshid‟ is closely associated with the spiritual movement of Sufism. Murshid is, commonly recognized as a guide, a leader, a Guru, an instructor, a teacher or a person under whose supervision and guidance a seeker Salik undertakes his journey to the path of Salook. So, Sufis has laid great stress on the need and importance of Murshid for a seeker in every reign. This is the admitted fact by the Sufis that success in this world and hereafter is not possible without the guidance of Murshid. The concepts of Sufis about Murshid, his importance and his role, described by Sufis, have been used by poets in Persian and Urdu poetry and likewise in Punjabi Sufi poetry too. The concept of Murshid seems more strong and clear in Punjabi Sufi poetry. So the aim of the study is to highlight the origin and development of the concept of Murshid in Sufism generally and in Punjabi Sufi poetry specifically and to analyze the need and value of Murshid for Murid on the path of Salook with special reference of Punjabi Sufi lyrics of four Punjabi Sufi poets i.e Baba Farid, Shah Hussain, Nosha Ganj Bakhsh and Sultan Bahoo.
