The tariqa got its name from Abdul Qadir Gilani (1077–1166, also transliterated Jilani), who was from Gilan. The order relies strongly upon adherence to the fundamentals of Islam. The order, with its many offshoots, is widespread, particularly in the Arabic-speaking world, and can also be found in Turkey, Indonesia, Afghanistan, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, the Balkans, Russia, Palestine, Israel, China,[1] and East and West Africa.[2] Contents History Features Spiritual chain Offshoots Halisa – Halisiyya Qadri Noshahi Sarwari Qadiri The Qadiriyya–Mukhtariyya Brotherhood The Qadiriyya Harariya Qadiriyya Razaviya See also References Further reading History The founder of the Qadiriyya, Abdul Qadir Gilani, was a respected scholar and preacher.[3] Having been a pupil at the madrasa of Abu Sa'id al-Mubarak, he became the leader of this school after al-Mubarak's death in 1119. Being the new sheikh, he and his large family lived in the madrasa until his death in 1166, when his son, Abdul Razzaq, succeeded his father as sheikh. Abdul Razzaq published a hagiography of his father, emphasizing his reputation as founder of a distinct and prestigious Sufi order.[4] The Qadiriyya flourished, surviving theMongolian conquest of Baghdad in 1258, and remained an influential Sunni institution. After the fall of the Abbasid Caliphate, the legend of Gilani was further spread by a text entitled The Joy of the Secrets in Abdul-Qadir's Mysterious Deeds (Bahjat al-asrar fi ba'd manaqib 'Abd al-Qadir) attributed to Nur al-Din 'Ali al-Shattanufi, who depicted Gilani as the ultimate channel of divine grace[4] and helped the Qadiri order to spread far beyond the region of Baghdad.[4] By the end of the fifteenth century, the Qadiriyya had distinct branches and had spread to Morocco, Spain, Turkey, India, Ethiopia, Somalia, and present-day Mali.[4] Established Sufi sheikhs often adopted the Qadiriyya tradition without abandoning leadership of their local communities. During the Safavid dynasty's rule of Baghdad from 1508 to 1534, the sheikh of the Qadiriyya was appointed chief Sufi of Baghdad and the surrounding lands. Shortly after the Ottoman Empire conquered Baghdad in 1534, Suleiman the Magnificent commissioned a dome to be built on the mausoleum of Abdul-Qadir Gilani, establishing the Qadiriyya as his main allies in Iraq. Khawaja Abdul-Allah, a sheikh of the Qadiriyya and a descendant of Muhammad, is reported to have entered China in 1674 and traveled the country preaching until his death in 1689.[4][5] One of Abdul-Allah's students, Qi Jingyi Hilal al-Din, is said to have permanently rooted Qadiri Sufism in China. He was buried in Linxia City, which became the center of the Qadiriyya in China.[1] By the seventeenth century, the Qadiriyya had reachedOttoman -occupied areas of Europe. Sultan Bahu contributed to the spread of Qadiriyya in western India. His method of spreading the teachings of the Sufi doctrine of Faqr was through his Punjabi couplets and other writings, which numbered more than 140. He granted the method of dhikr and stressed that the way to reach divinity was not through asceticism or excessive or lengthy prayers but through selfless love carved out of annihilation in God, which he calledfana . ,of the Kunta family, born in the region of the Noun river اﻟﺸﻴﺦ ﺳﻴﺪي أﺣﻤﺪ اﻟﺒﻜﺎي ﺑﻮدﻣﻌﺔ :Sheikh Sidi Ahmad al-Bakka'i (Arabic d. 1504 in Akka) established a Qadiri zawiya (Sufi residence) in Walata. In the sixteenth century the family spread across the Sahara to Timbuktu, Agades, Bornu, Hausaland, and other places, and in the eighteenth century large numbers of Kunta moved to the region of the middle Niger where they established the village of Mabruk. Sidi Al-Mukhtar al-Kunti (1728–1811) united the Kunta factions by successful negotiation, and established an extensive confederation. Under his influence the Maliki school of Islamic law was reinvigorated and the Qadiriyyah order spread throughout Mauritania, the middle Niger region, Guinea, the Ivory Coast, Futa Toro, and Futa Jallon. Kunta colonies in the Senegambian region became centers ofMuslim teaching.[6] Features Qadiri leadership is not centralised. Each centre of Qadiri thought is free to adopt its own interpretations and practices. The symbol of the order is the rose. A rose of green and white cloth, with a six-pointed star in the middle, is traditionally worn in the cap of Qadiri dervishes. Robes of black felt are also customary.[7] Names of God are prescribed aschants for repetition by initiates (dhikr). Formerly, several hundred thousand repetitions were required, and obligatory for those who hold the office of sheikh.[7] Any man over the age of eighteen may be initiated. They may be asked to live in the order's commune (khanqah or tekke) and to recount their dreams to their sheikh.[7]:94 Celibacy, poverty, meditation, and mysticism within an ascetic context along with worship centered on saint's tombs were promoted by the Qadiriyya among the Hui in China.[8][9] In China, unlike other Muslim sects, the leaders (Shaikhs) of the Qadiriyya Sufi order are celibate.[10][11][12][13][14] Unlike other Sufi orders in China, the leadership within the order is not a hereditary position; rather, one of the disciples of the celibate Shaikh is chosen by the Shaikh to succeed him. The 92-year-old celibate Shaikh The Qadiriyya Zawiya (Sufi lodge) Yang Shijun was the leader of the Qadiriya order in China as of 1998.[15] in the medina of Libya's capital, Tripoli Spiritual chain The spiritual chain (silsila) is listed as follows: 1.

Hungry and miserable people were fed all day in his Tekke without regard for religion. Dawlati Osmaniyya donated money and gifts to his Tekke in Kerkuk. Sultan Abdul-Majid Khan's (Khalife of İslam, Sultan of Ottoman Empire) wife Sultana Hatun sent many gifts and donations to his Tekke as a follower. Among his followers were many leaders, rulers, and military and government officials. It was known to everyone that he lived in complete conviction. Because of the example Talibani set as a religious figure, the people's ties to him were solid and strong. [16] After his death, his branch was populated in Turkey, and he was followed by Dede Osman Avni Baba, Sheikh Al-Haj Ömer Hüdai Baba, Sheikh Al-Haj Muhammed Baba, Sheikh Al-Haj Mustafa Hayri Baba, and Sheikh Al-Haj Mehmet Baba.[17] Qadri Noshahi The Qadri Noshahi[18] silsila (offshoot) was established by Syed Muhammad Naushah Ganj Bakhsh of Gujrat, Punjab, Pakistan, in the late sixteenth century.

    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.

    Places of Interest

    CHAPTER XIX PLACES OF INTEREST The Panipat district has made significant contribution to the history and heritage of Haryana. Archaeological sites mainly Seenk, Naultha, Garh Sarnai, Jaurasi Khalsa and Beholi were Pre-Harappan and Harappan settlements and the centers of activity during pre-historic times. The discovery of Kushana bricks and Yaudheya and Samantadeva coins and Gurjara- Pratihara inscriptions indicate the extension of their rule in this region. During the medieval period, the district rose into prominence continually. Important monuments like forts, gates, palaces, mosques and mausoleums built during Sultanate and Mughal rule illustrate the importance of the district in that era. The places of interest of the region, which are known for their antiquity or architecture, and have acquired historical importance, are described in this chapter under relevant headings. PANIPAT TOWN Panipat town is located at 29º19'50" and 29º26'27" North latitude and 76º56'0" and 77º00'0" East longitude. It is situated about 34 kilometres south of Karnal and 82 kilometres north of Delhi on National Highway-1 popularly known as Grand Trunk Road parallel to which also runs the Delhi-Ambala section of the Northern Railway through the city. It is a major industrial town of Haryana. Panipat town has a population of 5,15,375 persons with 2,75,836 males and 2,39,539 females as per census 2011. In ancient times, Panipat was known as panprastha, a abode of water or a watery place. Some historians call it as panikhet, which means abundance of water1. The town is of great antiquity, dating back to the period of war between the Pandavas and the Kauravas, when it formed one of well-known five patas or prasthas (Panipat, Sonipat, Inderpat, Baghpat and Talpat) which were demanded by Lord Krishana, being ambassador of peace on the behalf of Pandavas from Duryodhana.

    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. Blavatsky, animata e periodicamente rinnovata da numerosi autori e viaggiatori come Talbot Mundi ed Ossendowski. Ernest Scott, in questa amena e documentata opera ci espone i suoi studi e ricerche su questo appassionante tema. 1 Capitolo 1 LA TRADIZIONE NASCOSTA Un cometa attraversa il cielo e scuote la terra, e gli uomini si accendono con l'energia del suo passaggio. Asteroidi urtano e spargono la loro sostanza attraverso il firmamento. Nella terra, un continente affonda, un'isola emerge dall'oceano. Un deserto si trasforma in un nuovo mare, terra fertile diventa deserto. Nazioni, intere razze, nascono, declinano e scompaiono: lasciando solo leggende per lasciare un segno della loro esistenza e del loro passare. Forse è tutto accidentale? Forse non c’è alcun significato in tutta la spinta e la forza cieca della collisione? O magari tutto ha un proposito intenzionale, con la sua ragione e significato in un momento presente immensamente maggiore di quello che possiamo immaginare? 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.

I have been concerned to study the responses of Indian sufism to the growth of the colonial state, which established new forms of knowledge and new forms of order, and to the emergence of Muslim movements of revival and reform, which saw, and still see, sufism as inimical to the capacity of Muslims to sustain an Islamic society. It is a context more hostile for sufism than ever experienced before. I have approached the problem by examining the responses of three working spiritual traditions in nineteenth and twentieth century India.
