Thank you

May God bless you as well 😊 with successful life and eternal life.
The most peaceful people on surface of earth I’ve spent time with them. The naqshbandiya sufis always say first shariah then tariqa they basically mean if you can’t follow Shari law properly there is no need to come to tariqa.
Shariah the commands of Allah you have to follow. We have to be Muslims 1st thensufies
Well what does shari'a law mean? It's such a vague word, everyone has their own definition and criteria of what shari'a means so at the end of the day, it's void of any consensus and meaning
Edit: it's really hard to find even two people in the sufi orders who agree on what shari'a means in practice. Yes, most may agree in theory though
@Ali Baba your remark is true regarding my wrong terminology I've used, I'll give you that but how is it relevant to what my point is?
@Ali Baba yeah, but what's the point of believing in something ill defined?
@Ali Baba what I mean is that the rules found in the Islamic books of jurisprudence are not matching what people believe.
I visited Sheikh Bahauddin Naqshbandi and its environment gave me a goose-bump......ALLAH bless his soul...
I must say as a Muslim its so hard to find such complete and concise information such intricate topics like naqshbandi and thank to you i have a better understanding of it!! I wish u all the success as u are clearly a very neutral source of info . Much love
Many people misunderstood about sufism by thinking that sufism does not respond explisitely towards oppression. On the other hand, movements like Shaykh Omar Mukhtar in northern africa, Shaykh Said Pirani in Kurd area of eastern Turkey, also Independence war of Indonesia under mostly Shaykhs who practice sufism.
.
Sufism teaches to follow the shari'ah not just formally, instead with more into being grateful and love connection to Allah. That is why to discipline our qolb (heart-brain consciousness) is the path of sufism teach. They do not force other to follow God orders by merely performing an act. Growing ones' counsciousness toward our need to God and how to bestow our best to God's way is much more encouraged.
.
My GrandPa and Ma both belong to Naqsabandi order. My GrandPa went to jihad call to push Netherland (and Allies) from Indonesia. Now still living, 97 years old, still praying and fasting during ramadan. No one except God can push him to "just" pay the 'fidya', a fasting-compensation. They seems very happy, living in a very 'poor' looking bamboo house in East Java.
Love your contents here.
Thank you!
I agree. That’s the problem with the way Salafis tend to present Sufi practices. As if all of them do not follow sharia and just dance around in mazars.
Whereas the spread of Islam by large numbers happened at the hands of Sufis and they were at the forefront of many social and political movements.
The first anti colonial uprise in Indian subcontinent was started by one Sufi leader and one Hindu spiritual guru who actively took up arms to fight the British colonizers.
There are many more such instances. Unfortunately, the wahabis and salafis draw a picture of the Sufis that make them look like lunatics and paint themselves as logical modern monotheists. Which is ironic considering Sufism dates waaay back even before Ibn Taymiyah was even born. Anyway, I appreciate your comment, thank you.
Shaykh Said Pirani was more of a nationalist movement rather than religious. Naqshbandiyya supported such movements thought, like menemen incident in western turkey too.
A good video, and the stuff said here is generally true. There are numerous claims that aren't specifically true however. Lots of Naqshabandis engage in loud zikr for example, even with musical dhaff instruments. The Naqshabandi Order also places great emphasis on following a single living Shaykh, and the Shaykh decides according to circumstances whether to engage in loud or silent zikr. If loud zikr begins to serve ones own pride and ego, then the Shaykh commands silent zikr. If the silent zikr serves pride and ego, then loud zikr is practiced. The key is to combat the ego and different cultures express pride and arrogance either loudly or silently, and the form of zikr is to counter that.
There are 41 Sufi Orders, with 40 stemming from Ali and one from Abu Bakr. The Naqshabandis recognise this and generally do not really consider themselves any more orthodox than other orders. What they are highly critical of however, are people who ONLY embrace sufi practices while neglecting Shariah, like people who like sufi music and song or poetry, but do not pray 5 times daily like how Islamic shariah law stipulates. This is because it amounts to another ego-serving pursuit of picking the parts of Islam one likes and neglecting and ignoring other essential and often more important parts.
Mashallah
Thank you for further clarification on the topic brother.
Aghrr the ego! After years of doing the work as honestly and earnestly as i could (although at times i was very lazy), I would now say that there are no specific rules, be it loud or silent dhikr, because "one technique would supposedly tease the ego", which is what we want to watch in ourselves. If all roads lead to Rome, likewise all techniques lead to God and it really does not matter if a person has a big ego, or enjoys the sound of his/her own voice or likes to show off, because it is important to experience the ego and recognise it in order to reach self-knowledge and the divine qualities as well as realise the ultimate, ie. 'there is no other God but God' (La ilaha illallah), which is tantamount to saying that All that Is is God. In my personal experience, it takes a long time to understand all the tricks of one's ego and arrogance, and the essential ingredient is sincerity, courage and honesty with oneself to look at one's shadow self. Rules are always a frame supposed to have a deeper meaning, but they can also be a distraction from the goal because focusing too much on the form can stop the flow and experience with God. This is why I cannot and could not adhere to the Naqshbandi tariqa or other similar turuq.
@@latifa1310 interesting take, what tariqa do you adhere to now?
@@ahmyk9190 I do not adhere to a tariqa anymore but used to follow a Mevlevi tariqa which I left because it no longer resonated due to the dysfunctionality of its people who I feel did/do not understand the true meaning of Service to others ('Khidma'). However I will always be grateful to all the spiritual gifts and experiences I received and to the inner beauty I saw in most of its people even though many of them were dysfunctional. I liked the fact that men and women are mixed, but that's personal to me and I respect women who prefer their own intimacy together with other women only. I visited some other tariqat but they resonated even less with me. I do not have a sheikh or sheikha but I met a true sheikh who does not call himself a sheikh. We all need a sheikh to start with and the different styles of Shuyukh correspond to the multiple types of personalities. But at some point we understand that everybody is our sheikh in that everybody is a messenger of God and is a reflection of our self and a mirror, as such if we are truly honest with ourselves, we know what we need to work on. I learned to be very attentive to the messages I hear or see because within these, there is a lesson for me or some gift from God. When I need help with something specific, I ask God and the answer comes either in a dream, as a thought (inner message) or through someone, or a video, etc...God is my ultimate guide and his path is my tariqa...a rocky path but worth it.
You spoke in a very articulate way, there was a neat academic clarity. Thanks!
Here in Argentina there are many Naqhsbandi groups around, formed mainly by converts to Islam who had travelled to the Mediterranean countries. Also, there are some Halveti and, specially, most people from the senegalese migrant community are part of the Murid order.
Are the Naqshbandis murids of Shaykh Nazim?
@@sifatraihan3455 selâm aleyküm, they're! Also form sheikh Mehmet Adil now, sheikh Nazım son.
Which part in Argentina??
@@Paco619 there are naqshbandi dergah, would like my WhatsApp? Where are you from? Dergâh in argentina are 2 working good. Then you have small groups in different cities and towns. Cities (groups): Mendoza (dergâh), Córdoba, Buenos Aires, Bariloche, Comodoro Rivadavia(in Patagonia many families and algo dergâh) Santa Fe, San Lorenzo. Then in town: El bolsón, Bialet Massé, San Esteban, la consulta, lago puelo, Trelew, Trevelin. And maybe I'm forgetting to name some but those are most places I visited.
Hi I'm intrigued I'd like to know more pls
As-salamalaikum to one and all May Allah’s blessing be upon you all,your lectures are excellent and I appreciate them very much I’m a student of comparative religion and my Tarikah is Naqshabandi for over 30 years and my grandparents were Haqqani Adil Nazims 1st disciple May Mercy peace and blessings be upon rahim Allah Sheik Adil Nazim and all Awliahs,Prophets, specially upon Nabi Rasol Muhammad (SAW) also may Allah bless you for all your works.Jzk
Waleikum asselam warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu ♥️
This is a superbly made academic introduction to one of the most vibrant and historically influential Sufi orders. From its foundational inception in the late fourteenth century with its unique Golden Chain tracing to Abu Bakr, to what has often been characterised as a degree of political and polemical competitiveness toward other Sunni Sufi orders as well as Shi'as, you have deftly and delicately covered Naqshbandi history, unique self-identity as "orthodox Sunni Sufis", praxis, and outlook. I hope you will perhaps do other presentations for the Shadhili, Chisti, and Qadiri orders, as well as the Safavi and Bektashi. You are to be commended!
As a student of Dr Chittick and a lifelong student of comparative religion and intellectual history, I was particularly gratified to see how you delicately handed Sh. Ahmad Sirhindi's perhaps well-intentioned misunderstanding of Ibn 'Arabi.
My best wishes for your continued success, Filip! It is a joy to have found your channel. I shall greatly look forward to your videos.
BarakAllahu fik.
Who's Dr Chittick?
@@mirrazashah8961 Professor William C. Chittick is a philosopher, translator, and author of many books on Sufism, Islamic philosophy, and Islamic mysticism.
@@ryanhunter2987 is he Muslim?
@@Alamgir-ri6px Allah knows best, read his books and decide for yourself, his contributions are outstanding and groundbreaking, one thing that can be said about him is he is extremely sympathetic to Islam in all its traditional facets specially it’s spiritual dimension and Sufism as a whole as though he were a Muslim.
Al-Muqqadimah brought me here. Excellent presentation. Thank you!
I have been binge-watching everything on this page since I came across it. really enjoyable I must say. it would be really great if you could dedicate a video to the 'Tijjaniyya Sufi Order' 😀. I wish you peace and good health.
By th way, great collaboration with Al-Muqqadimah.

What is this is web site or u tube channel
Almighty has given you tremendous ability to understand the things and narrate the most hard ideas to the audience. So fluent and eloquent yet so simple.
very informative and well researched content. Good job.
Islamic tradition in Indonesia especially in Sundanese people in western java is also influenced deeply by Sufi especially Naqhsabandi. Mostly my big family is follow Naqhsabandi tradition
How does the Naqshbandi tariqa work? Is there a difference between Naqshbandis from Indonesia and Naqshbandis from Turkey, Cyprus such as Shaykh Nazim (Qaddas Allahu Sirrehu). I know Shaykh Luqman Efendi, the khalifa of Shaykh Abdulkerim Kıbrısi (Q.A.S), is from Indonesia. He has an Ottoman Dergah in New York.
@@DarioHaruni each schools have major practices that similar & other minor practice had a little differences.
Main differences is the lineeage chains of scholars we accept the teachings of practices from.
Like Indonesia had Inonesian scholars.. Like Turkey similar teachers with Haqqani & from Cyprus vice versa.
Only Prophet Muhammad pbuh, is our role model and leader and not any sufi
@@sba9450 we have been blessed to follow our prophet Muhammad SAW through the teachings of our scholars throughout the time. Whoever appreciate their teachers in truthful & manners really is thanking the Prophet SAW.
@@boretobe its true to a certain extent what you say. The Scholars arent the Religion. The Scholars help us understand the Religion but they themselves arent the Religion. If any Scholar says anything against the Qur'an or Sunnah then he is wrong on that issue no matter who he is.
May Allah swt bless you with heavenly guidance and enlightenment.

So I just recently found out that my Great-Grandfather was a Naqshbandi and very staunchly adhered to the silsila. But since then, the family's adherence to the silsila has watered down to the point that I only recently found out that our family once belonged to this Silsila. Watching this video was a very unique and interesting way of learning about my heritage. Thank you!
Mashallah who's mureed was he?
Good mashaAllah you dont need a sheikh to “guide” you. Your family learned this over the years, Allah guides you.
@@yknows3158 you're wrong brother
In order to learn Quran you have a teacher who guides you through the recitation and tajweed etc
Ultimate guidance is ofcourse from Allah but that's not whats being discussed here
Similarly a sheikh guides you when u join a silsila
@@ghulamnabi0learning Quran and tajweed is one thing but not grave worship asking from the dead and believing a sheikh will answer for you on judgment day etc thats what naqshbandi sheikh nazim followers believe. Which is not Islam, it actually takes you out of Islam.

But no problem
Stay blessed
I'd like to watch a wider video on Naqshbandiyya Tariqah. I appreciate a lot your work and very accurate observations on different topics.
Salam!
Thanks for making such a beautiful information video. Shiek Nazim Al-Haqqani is my shiek my teacher.
Also, a topic request: The Qadiri Tariqah....
sheakhuna abdulqadir al jeylani i am interested :)
That is Bidah. Beware of Tariqahs. Follow the prophet (Peace be upon him) and the Sahaba. These Tariqas will lead you astray. Dancing, singing and drums in the masjid is not from the sunnah
@@lungakumalo4973 brother sufism is real Islam. This will lead you to allah. Your heart can feel the change.
@@ikramulislam7033 islam is what the prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him, taught us....not what we think it is. This is a deen of proofs....show me in the Sunnah with proofs as to where this is allowed
@@lungakumalo4973, this knowledge is not for everybody body and not everybody can’t understand. If you want to learn please read Ibne Arbi, Imam Gazzali, and Mujahid Alfasani. There are two things in islam Shariyat and Tariqat. Shariyat is most important and first step to this knowledge. You can not deny any knowledge until you understand.
i like your section in Al-Muqqadimah
and cam to see the content :)
Enam 159.verse
You have no relation with them, as there are those who smash their religions into sects and factions. Their job is up to Allah. Allah will inform them of what they did.
Muslims are only attached to Allah(god).
Araf 3.verse
(Saying): Follow that which is sent down unto you from your Lord, and follow no protecting friends beside Him. Little do ye recollect!
a true Muslim does not belong to the sect.
use your mind.
What a great summarisation and in depth analysis.
You are an inspiration. May God bless you. 💚
Another topic request: Hadrat Khidr (KW) and the inter-religious/inter-cultural representations of "Khidr-like" figures in different societies and religions for example "The Green Man" folklore of Europe, Hermes Trismegastis/Tehuti in Hellenic Egypt and "Krsna" in Vedic Traditions.
oh my gawd, YESSS
this would definitely be a great youtube topic! down here in Bangladesh, we have folklore tales about this khwaza Khizr and Local saints Manik Peer, Badr Peer which is a syncretism in between Sufi and Hindu practices, where god Shiva and Hadrat Khidr becomes mixed together!
@@shahranhussain6037 I didn't know that. That's very interesting indeed. I would love to know more.
Also Saint George in some Middle Eastern Christian customs.
Wasnt hadrat khizr in surah kahf in the Quraan. He was more knowledgeable than Moses as. He lived underwater.
Hazrat Khidr is in the Naqsyabandi Golden Chain salasilah.
I got to say that I am quite impressed by the level of research you had done. Especially in contrasts to many other non-Sufis who have a tendency of misrepresenting the traditions/discipline and it's foundation. I have seen many videos of Westerners especially stating outright wrong statements about Sufism. I myself am a Naqshbandi and I find nearly all of what you said to be consistent.
As I see that you are very interested in religions and their spiritual traditions I pray the Almighty God guides you to the Absolute Truth.
Ps. You earned yourself a new subscriber.
Yourself is still jahil with your own life on earth. So how can it be possible for you to know and to understand the life in the hereafter? There will be no peace on earth until you realize your own insignificance and it is your imagined self-importance that led to the downfall of your religion. People have gradually been moving away from a superstitious mindset, a primitive dependence on metaphors like Heaven and Hell and into a mature realization that the reality the five senses is the only reality. You are adult and should act and think like adult.
@
Who do you think you are, to talk to me in such a manner. I didn't address you first of all, nor have I "shoved my religion" down your throat. I have witnessed events in my life that have led my certitude that Islâm is True. What do you know about me or the things I have seen?
And then you go on and ramble about how their would be peace until we realise our "insignificance". First of all, no human is insignificant to begin with. Secondly, Muslims have been martyred in the name of secularism and other ideologies and you're trying teach us about peace? Even now as I'm writing this there are Muslim Uyghurs in concentration camps being pressured to denounce their Faith.
"People have moving away from a superstitious mindset , a primitive dependence on metaphors like Heaven and Hell into a mature realisation that there is no reality beyond the 5 senses".
What an arrogant outlook. People have simply abandoned their former Faiths in favour of Empiricism and Darwinist Evolutionism. There's nothing "mature" about that. Who are you to say that being an adult means being an atheist? Are you too dukn to realise that throughout history adult humans have believed in religions until recently? And you're acting all of a sudden as if you figured everything out. If so, then please answer this. What brought everything untk existence. You cannot answer this with your 5 senses, so don't try to act smart with me.
@
"Thousands of religious followers have claimed and witnessed the same events"
I haven't even told you the things I have witnessed and yet you act as if you've been told by followers of other faiths. And if rather the case, why should it be relevant to me? Whatever they claim to have been subjected to can never serve as proof for me.
"...as how thousands of Muslims can do brutal things each year or month, while billions of others like yourself never seen bothered about it."
Firstly, you who are you to say that we dont seem bothered by it. Muslims are the number one victim of terror attacks. People like me (Sufis) are especially targeted. Thirdly, most Muslims condemn the attacks unlike some very few. I know the Ummah better than you do as I am a part of it. Thirdly, I'd like to see the statistics proving that they number up to thousands.
Now to answer your foolish rant about how I can believe that Islam is the Ultimate Truth and how Islam will changes and blah,blah.
What I believe has nothing to do with you and you have no right to come to me and disrespect me like that. And who told you that Islâm is changing? Where is the change? Stop talking about things that you don't know of. If I feel in my heart that this is the Truth then who are you to try to ridicule me for it. You are blind and arrogant that is the problem. Now you keep implying that Islam is not the Truth but are you even searching for the Truth? Have you ever asked God to prove Himself to you, or asked Him to guide you? Watch yourself first and stop being arrogant.
@
"If you are a real Muslim you shouldn't have denied this and considering that this religion is not entitled to equal respect or acceptance."
I don't deny terrorist attacks. And I am not responsible for them. Why should the entire religion be to blame, when the very same religion prohibits murder? Why should all Muslims be to blame when these actions are carried out by a minority out of a minority sect, which good deviant views? Of course Islam is entitled to respect and acceptance. It isn't up to you to decide. A decent human being doesn't discriminate others based on stereotypes.
"Now, let me know your biggest misconceptions propagated about your new like of Islam."
It is not a "new kind" of Islam. And for you to think that you will somehow refute the our perceptions surrounding our Prophet (Salla Allâhu 'alayhi wa sallama) using our early scholars. Try that and I will refute you (in sha' Allâh). Show me the references and write the comments short.
@ There are circumstances in which any human being may be compelled to lie, The Qur’an acknowledges this truth.
this is very informative, and solid arabic pronounciation as well ;)
Objective research on such important topics. Allah Almighty bless you

Amazing channel. Just came across it. So informative. God bless.
The Islamic scholar in Afghanistan who declared holy war against the Soviets, Professor Sibghatullah Mojaddedi was a naqshbandi Sufi of the Mojaddedi branch. He became the first President of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan after the defeat of the Soviets and the communists. The Naqshbandi sufis in Afghanistan are by no means pacifists and have often been at the forefront of war against foreign invasions of Afghanistan.

Don't you think they mught deviated from original teachings of Naqshbandiy?
@@kasimovsaid5523 No. The Mojaddedi family are the direct descendants of Sheikh Ahmad al sirhindi who was the greatest scholar of his time. So much so that the people gave him the title of "Mojadded alfe Thani" which means the revivalist of the second millenium. He himself was a man who was rose up against the Mughal Emperor Akbar when he introduced unislamic laws, thus saving Islam from destruction in the indian subcontinent. He was also the most accomplished Naqshbandi Sheikh. In short the Naqshbandi tariqa have a long history of jihad and defending islamic values in Afghanistan and south asia.

Thank you sir for such detail in short video
Great analysis!!
It used to be the norm for a learned Sunni to follow one school of Kelam, one school of Fiqh and one School of Tasawwuf/Sufizm. For example, many Ottoman Sultans chose to be Maturidi in Kelam, Hanafi in Fiqh and Naqshbandi in Tasawwuf. The President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan is actually a follower of the Naqshbandi Tariqa, and obviously also Hanafi and Maturidi as his "Ottoman forefathers". I am from Albania, a country where Islam cam through the Ottomans and it was quite common, that alongside the standard Hanafi+Maturidi combination of the Empire, to choose whatever Sufi Tariqa one would prefer (Riffai, Naqshbandi, Halwati etc)
However, one Tariqa, the Bektashi Tariqa is a special one, as it is seen as a separate religion. They describe themselves as Twelver Alevite Shiites. They don't consider the five daily prayers to be obligatory, they cosider alcohol or pork t5 be permissibe, but they consider rabbit to be forbidden. Men and women worship together and their clerics (Dervishes, Baba, Dede or Kryegjysh) remain celibate. They do go in Hajj and many of them hold proudly the title Hajji, but their main pilgrimage is one done at the Tomorri Mountain (probably an old holy site of the pre-christian pagan religion of Albania and Illyria) which Bektashis believe to be the place where Abbas Ali fled to by miracle during the Battle of Karbala.
I highly suggest you discover the Bektashi. There's many documentaries and material in Albanian which I am willing to translate for you, if you are interested.
salam aliekom brother . i have a question . as an albanian native muslim . what is your point of view toward nasir aldin al albani . i hope you tell me objectivly and freely with no barriers .
@@testtester6520 Aleikum Selam brother. I don't know much about him to be honest. But just because he is Albanian it doesn't mean I would have a good opinion about him. All I know is that I don't like that kind of Ahl Al-Hadith Salafi attitude towards Islam. It's as if the Qur'an is not enough for these people and it's the hadith that will "complete" it - we just have to find the ones with "sahih" chains. This has made the hadith collections a form of "The Gospel according to Bukhari" or "The Gospel according to Muslim".
The Maliki Madhhab is the number one enemy for Ahl Al Hadith, because Imam Malik, in his Muwatta narrated hadiths with Sahih chains but he refused to act upon them because the living Sunnah passed by practice was more important to him than narrations passed by word of mouth.
Anyway, Al Albani has given his contribution, so may Allah reward him. I may disagree with many of his teachings and beliefs but I don't strip people off of their merit.
@@DarioHaruni thank you brother . do you have a discord or facebook ?

You clearly do not know how Islam spread in Balkan region. Have you heard Seyit Ali Sultan, Sarı Saltuk and Hasan Dede, Gül Baba?. These are Bektashi masters and Alp-erens that spread islam in Balkans which taught tolerance and love instead of fear and religious bigotry. Many Christians converted seeing their love and peace. Their path is to be cherished rather critized. Hunkar Hadji Bektash Veli (k.s.) is a true friend of the God. Naqshbandis were not widespread in Anatolia and Balkans until the 19th century (the great Janissary masssacre). Unfortunately they have very powerful political organisations and commuting many crimes in the name of Islam.
Never seen a channel as underrated as this one.
The subject has been much sidelined from mainstream Islam in later centuries. It was a mainstream Islam in the spiritual revival in the middle ages. In fact almost all Islamic scholars and ulema were Sufis then. But as the nation states were formed, their role was sidelined by the fuqaha ulemas who serve the state. Modern secular education sideline the Sufis further and thus knowledge on Sufism becomes more rare. It now becomes exotic since a lot of people are seekers for inner self, after they are illusioned with the modern way of life. Majority of Muslims have very little awareness on the subject.
masyaalloh very broad explanation about naqshabandi, thank you very much ❤
Thank you. Very very informative
We do use music in our practices i was born Naqshbandi, Masha'Allah
The larger groups keep it silent, obviously there are some groups in naqshbaniya that do use dafs while doing dhikr
naqashbandi is way better then wahhabism in my opinion!
ধন্যবাদ...
ALLAH 1 & prophet MUHAMMAD (pbuh) is his Rasul...
we Muslims should believe that we are Muslim,not shia Muslim,not suni Muslim or anything else.
thanks

In this comment section: Triggered salafis
your funny mate, how about i don't ask corpses to pray for me and don't do extreme things like rabita, and i wanna follow sunni path.. why am i labeled like salafi, just sunny is alright
@@Manzar534 no mate, istighasa look up in internet, hey, by the way, i ain't wanna discuss it.. i ve been researching for many, years.. and i finally understood one thing.. it's better to unite, then do opposite.. in the place where i am from loads of people study just to say that others are wrong.. what i think and what i heard, there is a million dollar statement, when mushriqoon are gonna drop a bomb on your heads they ain't gonna ask what you are salafi tariqati naqshbandi j z 50 cent followers etc.. we better do sunna and unite about it mate.. there is loads of things in sunna we don't practice but so eager to jump on tawasul istigasa etc.. while we can't just read al mulk before sleep and al kahf for Friday, and yes, fasting three fays in the middle of month is also tiresome.. we are busy blaming others.. that's how we assert ourselves.. mostly in mobs..
Competing Naqshbandi sects fought in different parts of China, mostly in Ningxia, Gangsu and Qinqai, home to Hui (ethnically Chinese) Muslims. There were actually several wars between two rival Naqshbandi factions, the Khafiyya (Silent ones because their dhikr was silent) and the Jahriyya (who did dhikr out loud). These wars, known as the Dungan Revolts, actually killed several hundreds of thousands of Muslims. And during one of these wars, the ruler of Xingjiang actually declared a jihad against Hui Muslims and invaded other regions of China.
The interesting thing about this fight which end up in killing, if my knowledge is sufficient, it involved the “Sheikh”who’s simply a bloodline descendant of the Sheikhs, the “sheikh “ is even a member of the communist party who’s suppose to be irreligious. In other word, this fight is carried on in post-religious manner.
@@simeonyisrayiyl1501 that happened in the XIX century, way before the CCP.
Pathetic.
What's the point of doing zikr and killing muslims, I'm lost....
@@mohammedfaruki5368 welcome to the reality of the Islamic World
Great research dude.
I appreciate your ability to articulate such complex topics! Is your work available in written form anywhere?
My family back ground is from Naqshanbadi.
Tauba karo aur bahar nikalo
The first chain you referred to is Naqshbandi Haqqani which was given to Shaykh Nazim Al Haqqani (Rahmatullah Alayh) by Shaykh Abdullah Faizi Dagestani (Rahmatullah Alayh).
egarly waiting for your Qadiriya and Chistiya tariqah videos as well. Hopefully you have the time to do the videos on those as well.
Love your videos
More Sufi info please. ❤
Just to let you know the normal sung zikr is performed at our Naqshbandi group and under the teachings of Sheikh Nazim sung zikr is performed regularly.
Out of all the sufi orders, they like quiteness and peace, while the other dhikr or kaefiyat in other sufi orders is mostly with islamic music , their dhikr and kaefiyat is quite and peacefull, i remember our nakshbandi relative in whose home you could never even hear the sound of chewing food while they are eating
Mashallah nice video brother , brother a video on Amir kushrow a great sufi of Indian subcontinent please bro 👍
Great video as always brother, you should do a video and gnawa music and it's intense relation to sufism
Enam 159.verse
You have no relation with them, as there are those who smash their religions into sects and factions. Their job is up to Allah. Allah will inform them of what they did.
Muslims are only attached to Allah(god).
Araf 3.verse
(Saying): Follow that which is sent down unto you from your Lord, and follow no protecting friends beside Him. Little do ye recollect!
a true Muslim does not belong to the sect.
use your mind.
Could I request a video on the Shadilhi Sufi Order?
Would be amazing if you could do this!

@@mdrahimi3020 i am just muslim. Salam 🖐
@@serkangul5477 lol your so uneducated about sufism your ego is speaking for you and your making wild claims
@@serkangul5477 as long as the chain leads to the prophet SAW all sufi orders respect each other, as all of them will be adhering to one of the 4 schools so theres no disrespect amonst one another. But theres always arguments and disagreements but on a general terms were all part of the Ahle Sunnah Wal Jamaah.
@@serkangul5477 the prophet SAW said there will be 73 sects with only one to reach Jannat
What a beautiful piece of research about Tariqqa And very accurate on Naqshbani holy way. Thank you so much Sir Allah bless with its secrets. Amen
Thanks alot for the best description ,be blessed and have a long life ful of prosperity. I am speechless don't know how to admire you with publishing of this video. I learned alot!
as a Naqshbandi we actually use music with our tongue in a melodic way because of the Urdu influence, so prayer recitation chanting is a beautiful how you say vocal meditation aka singing
Sufism is bidah
@@lungakumalo4973 😂 fool
Ashtagfirullah
Naqshbandis do not allow music.
@@lungakumalo4973 just stfu pls
@@hasnainali9890 ALLAHU AKBAR, this is what the Ummah of the prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him now says when they are reminder of his sunnah? Can you be in love with Bidah so much? ASTAGFIRULLAH
Actually . . . the practice of the Naqshbandi order is especially characterized by their famous phrase: “In their end is our beginning”.
yessir
Mash'Allah how needed this reminder is. Suckraan Maulana. Long healthy life by beloved Master.
Thank you again for a great video!
Could you do one about the Senegalese/West African sufi orders? Mouridis, Baye Fall
Yes please
Are you living in a place where absolutely no mourid, no tidjani or any one else amongst the educated Muslims could answer your questions about soufi orders in West Africa ? Beleive me, you would get "the" right answers from them.
The African Sufis are not as extreme in their innovations from what I hear
I am a mureed of Sheikh Zulfiqar Ahmad DB of the Naqshbandi mujjadidi order and I have read some "maktoobat" of Sheikh Ahmed Sirhindi R.H and I was actually impressed by your knowledge about his teachings. His son Sheikh Masoom R.H also followed on his path and said that the Sufi who resort of the unlawful of the Shariah are actually trying to fill a void created by the lack of "ecstasy" in zikr after reaching a certain "maqam" and not realizing that no healing can be obtained from haram acts eg: dancing, singing etc. The cure to all of this is an early correction in the "niyyah" that abidance to Shariah is paramount and all other things come secondarily as a part of Allah's rehmat and all secondary things do not collectively amount to even a single ruling of the Shariah. As our Sheikh Zulfiqar says: "Become Abdul Lateef, not Abdul Lutf"
Excellent content thx so much. Please kindly post as much as you can on diff tarequa and paths of Sufism
Amazing channel
I was quite surprised that you are talking about the Naqshbandi tariqah, as most of my family members are in this tariqah and I truly wanted to know more about this. Thank you so much as usual for the great explanation. Will there be more videos on this subject? Anyways as always great job.👏🏻👏🏻
Do you mean specifically more videos about Naqshbandiyya? Not sure, but they will definitely come up again!
@@LetsTalkReligion bro, can make videos on the earlier Sufis like Imam Hasan Al Basri and Imam Junaid al-Baghdadi?
Follow quran and hadis...
@@Manzar534 MashaAllah brother, i really love Imam Rabbani Shaykh Ahmad Farooqi, may Allah bless him and you
A historical look at the Ba’Alawi order hailing from Hadramaut Yemen would be much appreciated.
With Peace
These chains you are talking about do not match as they (naqshbandi) believe they can get faiz from a grave is how they connect their chains to khulfa e rashideen . Unislamic , grave worship and belief in saints is not something preached by the prophet(s) himself .
@Qasim Mughal Astaghfirullah. Quran again and again says something and you people take a different meaning to meet your pagan like needs .
@Qasim Mughal regarding tawassul does that include making dua to a dead saint?
@Qasim Mughal ok but there are some Muslims who suplicate to the dead, Shiekh Abdul Qadir Al Jilani, Our Messenger (saw) and others which is shirk.
@Qasim Mughal that hadith doesnt apply to me. It may apply to someextreme sufies who make takfeer on salafies and deobands
What is supplication check the definition. This is what some Muslims do, when did the Sahaba you mention didthis?
They never made dua to the dead Saints or Prophets.
Thank you for the info
Great video
Very interesting and informative video..
Can you do a video on Mansoor Al-Hilaj with contest of Sufi Saint Junaid-e-Bagdadi?
4:00 the chain is called shajrah my mother has her shajrah and links to a sufi order , i am not clear which one , i will add up the comment after confirming
"Silsila" is Arabic for chain, while "Shajrah" is the word used in Urdu. They both refer to the same thing :)
@@rahielkasim5750 yeah they are
