If mystical travelers attain perfection in this world, they will do so. If they passed away before attaining perfection, they would be dead as a martyr. They are an immigrant who has gone towards God and after death, they will attain perfection.
God the almighty uttered: ” Anyone who leaves his home, there emigrating to God and His Messenger, and then is overtaken by death, his compensation falls on God.”
Ayatollah Mohammad Saleh Komeily (God graciously preserves him.)
