The Chain of Shaikhs of Tariqa Kasnazaniyya

The Chain of Shaikhs of Ṭarīqa Kasnazāniyya

Ṭarīqa ʿAliyyah Qādiriyyah Kasnazāniyya has a continued silsila of Shaikhs who are spiritually connected to each other and ultimately to the Prophet [ṣallā Allah taʿālā ʿalayhi wa sallam]. The silsila of Shaikhs of Ṭarīqa Kasnazāniyya has two lines that branched from Imām ʿAlī bin Abī Ṭālib. In the first line, which Shaikh Muḥammad calls “the Golden Line,” the Masterhood of Ṭarīqa was transferred through Imām al‑Ḥussein, son and student of Imām ʿAlī bin Abī Ṭālib, and in the second line, the Masterhood of Ṭarīqa was transferred via another of Imām ʿAlī’s students, Shaikh Ḥasan al‑Baṣrī. Both lines then re‑unite at Shaikh Maʿrūf al‑Karkhī who was a student of both Imām ʿAlī ar‑Ridhā of the Golden Line and Shaikh Dāwūd aṭ‑Ṭa’ī of the second line. This is the silsila of Shaikhs of Ṭarīqa Kasnazāniyya:
