Naqshbandi
Sufi mystic order in Sunni Islam / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Naqshbandi order (Arabic: الطريقة النقشبندية, romanized: al-Ṭarīqat al-Naqshbandiyya) is a Sufi order of Sunni Islam named after Baha al-Din Naqshband. They trace their silsila (chain) to Prophet Muhammad through the first caliph Abu Bakr (r. 632–634) by the way of Ja'far al-Sadiq. The Naqshbandi Sufi Order is distinguished from other Sunni schools by their adherence to the sharia highlighted by major Naqshbandi scholars including Sirhindi and Dahlawi.[1][2]
