Dear brother first of all i must appreciate your excellent research work in this website and you have made clear many historical mis conceptions , especially when it comes to Hazrat Fazal Ali Qureshi (r.a) .
Now coming to my question straightaway, I live in Lahore and want to learn Qalbi Zikr. Now since khawaja Mohammad Tahir alias Sajan sain lives in sindh and its very dificult for me to get myself benefited from his blessed company. So would you recommend or advice me any of his Khalifa in Lahore or nearby.
And also would you sugest any books of the Silsilah Aliya which would enhance my knowledge regarding tasawuf and Silsialh.
Thanking you in advance in anticipation of your early reply.

My name is Samer and i am from Singapore. I want to take initiation in this path as my spiritual thirst is overpowering me. Please help me. I am looking for a path built on the edfice of Sharia and Sunnah which will never move a hair’s breath away from it. I have read about imam rabbani and his staunchness in shariah and sunnah and would love to follow on his footsteps.
In Singapore there are many tarqahs but with strange beliefs and laxing in Shariah. Pirism is bordering at shirk and so on. That’s where I read about Sheik Ahmad Sirhindi. Kindly guide me in this path.
Hey, plz help me to find the chain of “HAZRATH MOHAMMAD SADDIQ BUKHARI” who is positiomed at No.112 .
I belong to his family but I dont have his past। History….SO plz help me….
Salam. Kindly credit Sultan ul-Awliya Mawlana Shaykh Nazim Adil al-Haqqani qadasAllahu sirrahul ‘aziz for the photos of the names of the Twelve Imams from Haram al-Sharif Masjid an-Nabawi ﷺ or simply cite my blog from where they were borrowed. Thanks. Allah guide us and reward our goondess and forgive our weaknesses. Ameen.

I have been to this place called Menzil and i can say only that i have never seen a place like that. In a village where no people live but still in every salaat there are at least 1000 people gathering for dja maa at. Can you give me more information about the Sheikh over there.

Alhamdulillaah! Wonderful site. i am doing some research in English (in a limited scope) on the subject of Tasawwuuf. i embrace all the Sufi turuuq that unite all Muslims in the Blessed Rasuul’s way. i would love to get in touch with some brothers with whom i can share some interesting subjects of mutual interest. i am a volunteer social worker and a voracious collecter and reader of books, especially Islamics. May Allaah help us all and help us to be in His protective care. Allaahumma aameen!

جزاك الله خيراً

Selamun Aleykum ve Rehmetullah we Bereketuhu
Ho scoperto questo blog per caso e grazie a Dio sono contento, è meraviglioso, pieno di informazioni , specie per noi occidentali che non abbiamo la possibilità di poter avere contatti diretti con Pir qualificati.
Sono un murid italiano affliliato alla Naqshibandi in Italia dal 2010.
Abito in sardegna, un’isola nel mediterraneo.
Spero di poter continuare a seguire, con l’aiuto di Dio, le indicazioni riportate nel vostro sito. E spero di poter avere contatti se possibile con maestri della Mujaididi.
Grazie
Wassalam
