Looking for the Spiritual Chain of Sheikh Nuh Keller ( DB )

[seeker_ikb]

Assalamu 'Alaicum,

I am interested to know the spiritual chains of some Shadhili Shaykhs such as
Sheikh Abd al-Rahman al-Shaghouri ( RA ) and Shaykh Nuh Keller living in Jordan . If you know about his silsilah or the silsilah of any other Shadhili Shaykhs living in Syria , please respond.

Wassalam,

IKB

Thank you brother for the complete chain of shuyukh of this blessed tariqah.

One of the khulafa of my beloved shaikh, who is also a great scholar with many scholarly books (above 50 I assume), received this tariqah from a shaikh in Madinah al-Munawwara.

I will like to know about famous shuyukh of this tariqah alive today. If any one has the information, kindly share.

Thanks

Well, I have a friend living in Madina. It would be nice if he can meet any shaykh living in Medina. Would you please give me the address of that shaykh as mentioned above ?

Some Shaykhs of Shadhili Tariqah alive today are

------------------- Shaikh Nuh Keller (DB) ------------------

Khulafa from

Sheikh Abd al-Rahman al-Shaghouri ( RA ) , Damascus , Syria

----------- Sheikh Mustafa al-Turkmani ( DB ) -----------------------------------

On Friday 11 June 2004 the Damascus brethren of Sheikh Abd al-Rahman put their hands in the hand of Sheikh Mustafa al-Turkmani at the Nuriyya Mosque as their head. The sheikh s main legacy however does not lie in the polity he left behind, but in his reviving the spirit of the tariqa with the Qur an and sunna and pure experiential knowledge of the Divine

Well, I don't know which shaikh he got the shadhli tariqah from. It was long time ago, and I don't know about the shaikh. But for your friend, I will suggest for him to go to a khalifah of my shaikh who is a scholar as well and living in Madinah al-Munawwara these days. He is a pakistan government servant and working in the "Pakistan House" in Madinah sharif. Tell your friend to contact him there (he will be able to find the Pakistan house there, its a govt. stuff).

His name is Maulana Qamar Al-Hashmi. He is a scholar as well and has served the spiritual mission of my shaikh for many years in Birmingham, UK.

Thanks

Sheikh Mustafa passed a little over 2 years ago. See http://www.zaytuna.org/articleDetails.asp?articleID=103

Another Shadhili Sheikh which many westerners are familiar with is al-Sayyid Sheikh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi.

Shaykh Shukri Ibn Ahmad al-Lahfi is currently leading the Shadhili-Darqawi-Hashimi branch in Syria, after the passing of Shaykh Mustafa al-Turkmani (may Allah bless his soul).

Wa'alaykumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,

Although I've made bay'ah with him, I haven't met him personally myself. I keep in touch with the Syrian Shadhilis via emailing a Singaporean friend of mine who's a student there. It could take weeks for him to reply to my email since he has a busy schedule.

I do know that Shaykh Shukri is a renowned teacher of qira'āt in Damascus. If you were to pay Damascus a visit and ask around, I'm pretty sure you'll get directions insha'Allah. Also, I heard that Shaykh Shukri attends the Hadra right after Jum'ah prayers at Masjid Noor.

My apologies for not being of much help since I've never been to Syria myself.
