The political approach of Shaykh Zāhid Gīlānī paved the way for Shaykh Ṣafī al-Dīn Ardabīlī’s political thinking and his closeness to the power-holders of the time. In addition to acquiring the rules and manners of Sufism, Shaykh Ṣafī al-Dīn learned from his master the political approaches for expanding his Sufi order, as well. These approaches turned into a political movement in the Safavid order and eventually laid the foundation for one of the great orders in the history of Iran.
