In Islam, Barakah or Baraka ( Arabic: بركة "blessing") is a blessing power, [1] a kind of continuity of spiritual presence and revelation that begins with God and flows through that and those closest to God. [2]
Sacred places are said to contain barakah and ward off evil spiritual forces, thus monastries and Sufi temples are often visited for protection against demonic beings. [3]
