Niaz, Gatpath and Ab-e-shafa

Post by a0197572 »

Can someone please explain the differences in meaning of Niaz, Gatpath and Ab-e-shafa. I know at the high level they refer to the same thing. But I am seeking more concrete definitions and any subtle differences in what each term denotes. References would help.
