| After a long and all-round learning, the murid returns to his or her first sheikh. |
| And then, according to this, every murid is given certain tasks for the whole period of learning and corresponding parts of the teachings. |
| These include the shrews, some moles, some bats, the striped skunk, the pinniped carnivores, toothed whales, the aardvark, and murid rodents. |
| The brown rat is a rather large true murid and can weigh twice as much as a black rat and many times more than a house mouse. |
| Two prime examples of this are the murid rodents and the lagomorphs. |
| Around 1150 living species of murid rodents have been described, but surely many more remain to be discovered. |
