Naqshbandiyya Aliyya
USA & Canada

One of the major Sufi paths leading the seeker to become a true servant of Allah, and to reach His eternal pleasure...

The Naqsh is the perfect engraving of Allah's name in the heart of the follower...

Naqshband means to “tie the Naqsh very well.” Naqsh which means “engraving” and suggests engraving the name of Allah in the heart, and band which means “bond” and indicates the link between the individual and his Creator.​​

​

The Naqshbandi school takes its principles from the teachings of the six bright stars in the firmament of the Prophet (s): Abu Bakr as-Siddiq, Salman al-Farisi, Ja'far as-Sadiq, Bayazid Tayfur al- Bistami, 'Abdul Khaliq al-Ghujdawani, and Muhammad Baha’uddin Uwaysi al- Bukhari...

Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Adil al-Haqqani

Shaykh Nazim Adil al-Haqqani (April 21, 1922 – May 7, 2014; Sha’ban 23, 1340 AH – Rajab 8, 1435 AH), born Mehmet Nâzim Adil and also known as Muhammed Nazim El-Hakkani, was a Turkish Cypriot Sufi master and the spiritual leader of the Naqshbandi-Haqqani Order. Renowned for his deep spirituality and global influence, he was affectionately known by many honorifics as Sultan-ul-Awliya (The King of the Saints), 

 

Born in Larnaca, Cyprus, he carried the title “Kibrisi” (the Cypriot). His lineage traces back to two great Sufi masters: the 11th-century saint Abdul Qadir Jilani and the 13th-century mystic Jalaluddin Rumi. Both his maternal and paternal grandfathers were shaykhs in the Qadiri and Mevlevi orders, shaping his spiritual heritage from an early age.
