Historia De La Cadena Dorada Naqshbandi HISTORIA DE LA CADENA DORADA NAQSHBANDI 1 Los principios de transmisión en la orden Naqshbandi. Por Sheik Hisham al-Kabani. Los títulos de la cadena Naqshbandi La denominación de la Cadena de Oro Naqshbandi ha cambiado de siglo en siglo. Desde el tiempo de Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (r.a.a.) hasta el de Bayazid al-Bistami se denominaba as-Siddiqiyya. Del tiempo de Bayazid hasta el de Abdul Jalik al-Ghujdawani se llamaba at-Tayfuriyya. Del tiempo de Abdul Jalik al-Ghujdawani hasta el de Sheik Naqshband se llamó la Khwajaganiyya. Desde el tiempo de Sheik Naqshband y durante el de Ubayda Allah al-Ahrar y de Ahmad Faruqi, fue llamada Naqshbandiyya. Naqshbandiyya significa "atar el naqsh muy bien". El naqsh es el grabado perfecto del nombre de Allalh en el corazón del aspirante, seguidor, estudiante o discípulo. Del tiempo de Ahmad al-Faruqi hasta el del Sheikh Jalid al-Baghdadi fue llamada Naqshbandiyya Jalidiyya. Del tiempo de Ismail ash- Shirwani hasta el del Sheikh Abd Allah ad-Daghestani, fue llamada Naqshbandiyya Daghestaniyya. Y hoy es conocida por el nombre de Naqshbandiyya Haqqaniyya. La transmisión "Uwaysi" del conocimiento espiritual Sheik Bahauddin Naqshband al-Uwaysi al Bujari recibió el dhikr silencioso de la presencia espiritual de Khwaja Abdul Jalik Ghujdawani. Nunca se encontraron físicamente porque hubo cinco Sheikhs entre ambos en la Cadena de Oro. Del mismo modo Abul Hasan al Jarkani tomó la guía espiritual y la iniciación en la Orden Naqshbandi de la presencia espiritual de Bayazid al-Bistami. En esta forma de transmisión espiritual, los espíritus se encuentran en el mundo de los espíritus, que está más allá del plano material. Aquel que recibe el conocimiento a través de la espiritualidad de un maestro fallecido en la vía Naqshbandi, es llamado de estos dos modos, Uwaysi y Naqshbandi. La conexión espiritual es tan poderosa y efectiva como la conexión física. El signo del favor de Dios, Todopoderoso y Exaltado, sobre Su siervo es que autoriza a uno de Sus santos a elevarlo a la Divina Presencia. Esa es la razón por la que muchos santos de los primeros tiempos fueron guías de aquellos que les sucedieron a través de esta conexión espiritual (Uwaysi). Es bien sabido que muchos santos han estado bajo el cuidado y la guía de profetas y otros santos que los elevaron. Como dijimos, Abdul Jalik al-Ghujdawani fue elevado por Jidr (a.s.), Uways al-Qarani (r.a.a.), y las presencias espirituales de Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s.) y Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (r.a.a.). Luego Abdul Jalik elevó a Sheik Naqshband, quien también recibió la guía de Uways al- Qarani, de Ali (a.s.), de Abu Bakr (r.a.a.), y del Profeta (s.a.w.s.). Jafar as-Siddiq (a.s.) elevó a Bayazid al-Bistami. Bayazid al-Bistami elevó a Abul Hasan al-Jarqani. Ubayd Allah al-Ahrar fue elevado por la conexión espiritual de Jesús (a.s.) y de Sheik Naqshband. Es sabido que Ahmad al-Faruqi, en añadidura al poder espiritual que recibió de Sheik Naqshband, también recibió soporte espiritual y apoyo de Ali (a.s.). Sheikh Sharafuddin ad-Daghestani fue elevado en espiritualidad por Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (r.a.a.) y por Muhammad (s.a.w.s.). Sheikh Abd Allah ad-Daghestani estuvo bajo la guía espiritual de Ali (a.s.), de Uways al-Qarani (r.a.a.), de Abdul Jalik Gujdawani y de Sheik Naqshband. Sheikh Nazim recibió en añadidura a la guía recibida de Sheikh Abd Allah y Sheikh Sharafuddin, la guía de Jalaluddin Rumi y la de Abdul Qadir Gilani, que fueron sus bisabuelos por parte de su padre y de su madre respectivamente. Estos son los Sheikhs de la Orden Naqshbandi mencionados por Sheikh Abd Allah ad-Daghestani, que en añadidura a su conexión física, recibieron la conexión Uwaysi. Son conocidos como los Sheikhs de las Dos Alas, lo que quiere decir que en ellos se combina tanto un linaje físico como un linaje espiritual. Estos santos son únicamente nueve. Cada uno representa uno de los nueve puntos espirituales en el tórax del ser humano. A través de estos puntos, estos santos pueden alcanzar a sus seguidores en cualquier momento. Por tener la autoridad sobre estos nueve puntos, consideran a toda la humanidad sus seguidores, sean o no conscientes de su conexión espiritual. A través de estos puntos, que son de naturaleza "Uwaysi", pueden alcanzar y afectar a cualquier ser humano, interceder por él, e inspirar en su corazón lo necesario para dirigirlo al Amor Divino, aunque nunca se lleguen a encontrar físicamente. Sheik Abd Allah Ad-Daghestani y su visión de Uways Al-Qarani (r.a.a.) Nuestro gran Sheik, Abd Allah ad-Daghestani, dijo: "Después de que muriera Sheik Sharafuddin yo esperaba una apertura para emigrar a Turquía, y me encontraba haciendo un retiro en la mezquita junto a la tumba de mi Sheik, rezando una noche, antes de la oración del alba. Era una noche fría y de nieve. Podía sentir el frío en los huesos. Se oía caer la nieve suavemente en los árboles y el aullido de los lobos en el bosque. Oí una voz que llamaba mi nombre, "Abdullah Effendi". Miré a mí alrededor pero no veía a nadie. Entonces oí la voz otra vez que llamaba, "¡Adb Allah!" Miré otra vez pero seguía sin ver a nadie. Yo sabía que era la voz de mi Sheik. La calidez de su voz me llenó de energía y corrí afuera, sin ponerme siquiera los zapatos ni el abrigo de lana. Vi a mi Sheik en una visión brillante, de pie en la colina. Me llamó y me dijo, "Abd Allah Effendi, ven". Ni pensé en ponerme los zapatos. Caminé sobre la nieve y podía sentir el calor del Amor Divino que emanaba de su espíritu. Cuando llegué hasta él, me dijo, "Hijo mío, me ha sido ordenado que esta noche te lleve a la presencia de Uways al- Qarani (r.a.a.) por orden del Profeta (s.a.w.s.)". Entonces dijo, 'Hijo mío, tómame la mano.' Yo estaba muy feliz de tomarle la mano a mi Sheik. Tan pronto como le cogí la mano aparecí en un grupo de santos, en presencia del Profeta (s.a.w.s.). Uways al-Qarani (r.a.a.) estaba allí sentado. Entramos y encontramos que nos habían dejado dos asientos libres para que nos sentáramos. Presentamos nuestros respetos; nos sentamos en nuestros sitios. Entonces Ali (a.s.) se levantó y dijo, 'Por primera vez vamos a revelar este secreto a la compañía de los santos. Sólo ahora hemos recibido el permiso del Profeta (s.a.w.s.) para que este secreto aparezca.' Vi que estaban presentes en el encuentro los 7.007 santos Naqshbandi, junto con los 313 santos Naqshbandi que siguen las huellas de los 313 grandes mensajeros, y los grandes Sheiks de la Cadena de Oro. Ali (a.s.) dijo dirigiéndose al grupo y especialmente a mí, "Cuando el Profeta (s.a.w.s.) se estaba muriendo, nos llamó a Umar y a mí a su presencia y nos dijo, "Una vez que yo haya muerto, 2 coged las ropas que ahora llevo, y cuando mi alma se haya ido, se las dais como muestra de mi confianza a Uways al-Qarani. Encontrareis a Uways al-Qarani en tal y tal sitio". Ali (a.s.) dijo, "Mientras el Profeta (s.a.w.s.) yacía en el lecho de muerte, sudaba abundantemente. Cuando su alma abandonó el cuerpo cogimos las ropas empapadas de sudor. Y tal como el Profeta (s.a.w.s.) nos había indicado, nos dispusimos a buscar a Uways al-Qarani. Preguntamos por él, pero nadie lo conocía. Umar dijo, " Oh Ali, no lo encontramos y nadie sabe de él. Deberíamos volver". Pero yo dije, " Oh Umar, eso no es posible. Si el Profeta (s.a.w.s.) dijo que está aquí, debemos encontrarlo. Quizás es conocido con un nombre diferente". Entonces empezamos a preguntar, "¿conocen a un hombre que es pastor, uno que cuida de su madre y jamás la abandona?" Algunos dijeron, "Si. Pero su nombre no es Uwavs al-Qarani, su nombre es Abd Allah". Y nos mostraron donde vivía. Fuimos hasta allí y vimos en la distancia a un hombre sentado que nos daba la espalda. Nos acercamos. Cuando llegamos hasta él, sin volverse, dijo, "Oh Ali, Oh Umar, dadme mi prenda de confianza". Inmediatamente le dimos la ropa del Profeta (s.a.w.s.). Se levantó, besó la prenda y se la puso, y apretándosela al corazón dijo: " Acepto, acepto, acepto." Nos preguntábamos porqué besaría así la ropa y porqué pronunciaba esas palabras, ya que nunca había visto al Profeta (s.a.w.s.), pero vacilábamos en preguntarle. "Entonces Uways se giró hacia Umar y le dijo. "Oh Umar, ¿cuántas veces viste al Profeta (s.a.w.s.) ?" Umar estaba sorprendido por la pregunta. Y dijo, "Esa es una pregunta extraña. Yo pasé toda mi vida en compañía del Profeta (s.a.w.s.)". Uways dijo, "Yo lo pregunto por una razón. ¿Cuántas veces realmente lo viste?" Umar dijo," ¿Qué quieres decir? "¡Yo estaba con él todo el tiempo!" Uways al- Qarani dijo, "Descríbemelo". Umar comenzó a describir al Profeta (s.a.w.s.), sus ojos, sus rasgos, su apariencia. Entonces Uways dijo, "Oh Umar, esta descripción la conoce todo el mundo, incluso los que no creían en él." "Entonces Uways me miró y dijo, "Oh Ali, ¿cuántas veces viste tú al Profeta (s.a.w'.s.)?" Sabía a lo que se refería, y dije, "Oh Uways, yo solo vi al Profeta (s.a.w.s.) una vez en toda mi vida".

    Journal of Social Science Studies ISSN 2329-9150 2020, Vol. 7, No. 2 Transformations of Iran Sufism in the 12th and 13th Centuries Seyed Mohammad Hadi Torabi PhD Research Scholar, University of Mysore, India E-mail: [email protected] Received: January 10, 2020 Accepted: March 20, 2020 Published: March 28, 2020 doi: 10.5296/jsss.v7i2.16760 URL: https://doi.org/10.5296/jsss.v7i2.16760 Abstract The 12th and 13th centuries are among the most important periods in the history of Sufism in Iran. During this period, the emergence of many great elders of Sufism and the establishment of the most famous ways and organized dynasty in Sufism by them, the formation of some of the most important treasures of Islamic Sufism, such as the dressing gown and the permission document of the dynasty, the systematic growth and development of the Monasteries as formal institutions and the social status of Sufis and the influence of Sufism in the development of Persian and Arabic prose and poetic, which in this study, briefly, the transformation and effects of Iranian Sufism are examined. Keywords: Cultural equations, Political equations, Religion, Sufism 1. Introduction Iranian Sufism, which has formed in the context of Islamic Sufism and its influence on the Sufism of the ancient religions in Iran, such as Zoroastrianism and Manichaean, has seen tremendous transformations over time, which undoubtedly caused cultural, political, social and even economic changes that have arisen in Iran has led to many ups and downs in the path of growth and excellence. Prior to the 12th century, Sufism continued to exist as a belief system based on knowledge and paths and a mystical view of religion, in which many groups and branches were formed, but differences of them were mostly in the field of thought and had little effect on the space of the community.

  • Varieties of South Asian Islam Francis Robinson Research Paper No.8
    Varieties of South Asian Islam Francis Robinson Research Paper No.8 Centre for Research September 1988 in Ethnic Relations University of Warwick Coventry CV4 7Al Francis Robinson is a Reader in History at the Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, University of London. For the past twenty years he has worked on Muslim politics and Islamic institutions in South Asia and is the author of many articles relating to these fields. His main books are: Separatism Among Indian Muslims: The Politics of the United Provinces' Muslims 1860-1923 (Cambridge, 1974); Atlas of the Islamic World since 1500 (Oxford, 1982); Islam in Modern South Asia (Cambridge, forthcoming); Islamic leadership in South Asia: The 'Ulama of Farangi Mahall from the seventeenth to the twentieth century (Cambridge, forthcoming). Varieties of South Asian Islam1 Over the past forty years Islamic movements and groups of South Asian origin have come to be established in Britain. They offer different ways, although not always markedly different ways, of being Muslim. Their relationships with each other are often extremely abrasive. Moreover, they can have significantly different attitudes to the state, in particular the non-Muslim state. An understanding of the origins and Islamic orientations of these movements and groups would seem to be of value in trying to make sense of their behaviour in British society. This paper will examine the following movements: the Deobandi, the Barelvi, the Ahl-i Hadith, the Tablighi Jamaat, the Jamaat-i Islami, the Ahmadiyya, and one which is unlikely to be distinguished in Britain by any particular name, but which represents a very important Islamic orientation, which we shall term the Modernist.2 It will also examine the following groups: Shias and Ismailis.

  • The Naqshbandi-Haqqani Order, Which Has Become Remarkable for Its Spread in the “West” and Its Adaptation to Vernacular Cultures
    From madness to eternity Psychiatry and Sufi healing in the postmodern world Athar Ahmed Yawar UCL PhD, Division of Psychiatry 1 D ECLARATION I, Athar Ahmed Yawar, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: 2 A BSTRACT Problem: Academic study of religious healing has recognised its symbolic aspects, but has tended to frame practice as ritual, knowledge as belief. In contrast, studies of scientific psychiatry recognise that discipline as grounded in intellectual tradition and naturalistic empiricism. This asymmetry can be addressed if: (a) psychiatry is recognised as a form of “religious healing”; (b) religious healing can be shown to have an intellectual tradition which, although not naturalistic, is grounded in experience. Such an analysis may help to reveal why globalisation has meant the worldwide spread not only of modern scientific medicine, but of religious healing. An especially useful form of religious healing to contrast with scientific medicine is Sufi healing as practised by the Naqshbandi-Haqqani order, which has become remarkable for its spread in the “West” and its adaptation to vernacular cultures. Research questions: (1) How is knowledge generated and transmitted in the Naqshbandi- Haqqani order? (2) How is healing understood and done in the Order? (3) How does the Order find a role in the modern world, and in the West in particular? Methods: Anthropological analysis of psychiatry as religious healing; review of previous studies of Sufi healing and the Naqshbandi-Haqqani order; ethnographic participant observation in the Naqshbandi-Haqqani order, with a special focus on healing.

  • The Very Foundation, Inauguration and Expanse of Sufism: a Historical Study
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 6 No 5 S1 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy September 2015 The Very Foundation, Inauguration and Expanse of Sufism: A Historical Study Dr. Abdul Zahoor Khan Ph.D., Head, Department of History & Pakistan Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty Block #I, First Floor, New Campus Sector#H-10, International Islamic University, Islamabad-Pakistan; Email: [email protected]; [email protected] Muhammad Tanveer Jamal Chishti Ph.D. Scholar-History, Department of History &Pakistan Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty Block #I, First Floor New Campus, Sector#H-10, International Islamic University, Islamabad-Pakistan; Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n5s1p382 Abstract Sufism has been one of the key sources to disseminate the esoteric aspects of the message of Islam throughout the world. The Sufis of Islam claim to present the real and original picture of Islam especially emphasizing the purity of heart and inner-self. To realize this objective they resort to various practices including meditation, love with fellow beings and service for mankind. The present article tries to explore the origin of Sufism, its gradual evolution and culmination.

    Ernest Scott IL POPOLO DEL SEGRETO Traduzione ALESSANDRO BARSANTI INTRODUZIONE Per molti secoli è esistita una strana leggenda in Oriente. Dice che in qualche posto nascosto, magari sulle alte montagne dell'Asia Centrale esiste una gruppo di persone che possiedono poteri eccezionali. Questo centro agirebbe, almeno in alcuni aspetti, come, il governo segreto del Mondo. Frammenti di questa Ieggenda arrivarono in Occidente durante le crociate. L'idea fu rinnovata dal pensiero Rosacroce e reintrodotta con alcuni variazioni in questo secolo, da Mme.

Fino a poco tempo fa c'erano pochi dubbi nella mente degli uomini sulla risposta. Le cose accadevano intenzionalmente. L'intenzione poteva essere benigna a livello umano, o poteva essere ostile, ma ad un certo livello, in una certa scala, aveva significato.
