The Way
The Most Distinguished Naqshbandi Haqqani Sufi Order is an authentic spiritual path (tariqah). This path was paved for us through the golden chain by the 41 Masters that link us directly to the prophet SAW, that brought down the message to us today.
The Shaykhs
Sheikh Mehmet Adil Ar-Rabbani spent his youth in Syria’s capital, Damascus, under the guidance of both Mawlana Sheikh Abdallah al Faiz (قـدس الله سره) and Mawlana Sheikh Nazim (قـدس الله سره)
Sultan-ul Awliya, Mawlana Sheikh Nazim al-Haqqani قـدس الله سره named his successor of the Naqshbandi tariqah as his son Sheikh Mehmet Adil Ar-Rabbani (قـدس الله سره) as his successor over all murids around the globe. Mawlana Sheikh Nazim (قـدس الله سره) said that ‘Sheikh Mehmet (قـدس الله سره) is number 41 in the Golden Chain of Grand sheikhs.’
The Dergah
The dergah is a sanctuary that caters to all. The famous scholar, and ancestor of our sheikh, Mawlana jalal-ud-din Rumi (قـدس الله سره) saying ‘ come, come whoever you are… ours is not a caravan of despair.’ In Rumis original poem the word ‘caravan’ was actually ‘Dergah.’
