Silsila Chishtia

About this book

A shajra is the spiritual chain that links a seeker, through his shaykh, back to the Prophet ﷺ. Shajra Salasil e Arba presents the chains of the four great Sufi orders, Qadriya, Chishtiya, Naqshbandiya and Suhrawardiya, as held by Hazrat Maulana Shah Mufti Mohammed Nawal ur Rahman Sahab, Khalifa and Mujaz of Hazrat Shah Sufi Ghulam Mohammed Sahab (RA) and Hazrat Dr. Tanveer Ahmad Khan Sahab.

Along with the shajrahs, the booklet gives essential guidance and teachings for saalikeen, those who have taken bai‘ah: the daily ma‘mulat, the etiquette of zikr, the importance of following the Shariah and the Sunnah, and the adab of the relationship with the shaykh. It carries a foreword by Mufassir e Quran Hazrat Maulana Shah Mohammed Kamal ur Rahman Sahab (RA).

It is a compact companion for every mureed of the Silsila and for anyone who wants to understand the chains of guidance through which the teachings of tasawwuf have reached us.
