Honorable Naqshbandi Order

Among all the great orders of Sufism, Naqshbandi order has evolved from the teachings of Hazrat Abubakr Siddique (RA), while all other prominent orders evolved from the teachings of Hazrat Ali Ibn Abi Talib (RA).

Originally this order (Tariqa) was known as the Siddiquiah Tariqa, based on its origin from Hazrat Abubakr Siddique (RA). In the 14th century a great saint of this Silsila, Shaykh Baha-ud-Din Naqshband Bukhari (RA) made significant contributions in helping understanding the essence of Islam and its spiritual values, after whom this silsila was later named as the Naqshbandi Silsila. One of the key contributions of Hazrat Baha-ud-Din Naqshband Bukhari (RA) was the silent zikr, which later became a part of the Naqshbandi foundation.

Sufism is the spiritual essence of Islam and it has been traditionally passed down from Shaykh (spiritual teacher) down to his followers. This traditional relationship can be traced back all the way to our beloved Prophet (PBUH).
