Khanqah-e-Naimatiya



Khanqah-e-Naimatiya”

Khanqah ek aisi jagah hai jahan log roohani tarbiyat aur ibadat ke liye jama hote hain, khaaskar Sufi silsile ke pirokar. Ye ek aisi jagah hai jahan log dunyavi zindagi se alag ho kar roohani sukoon aur ilm hasil karne ki koshish karte hain.

Khanqah jahan se Shariat o Tariqat ki ziya phelti hai. Arbab-e-Tariqat aur sufiyaye kiraam ne raah-e-sulook ki manazil tay karane, ibadat karne aur karwane aur raah-e-tariqat ke mubtadi ke liye khanqahon ki buniyad rakhi. Har zamane mein yahan se rushd o hidayat ke sath khidmat-e-khalq ka kaam bhi anjam diya jata hai aur aaj bhi khanqahen apne apne andaaz par yehi kar rahi hain.

Yehi se mohabbat, ukhuwat, musawat, bhai charagi, yakjehti, ittefaq o ittihad ka taqreeri, tahreeri aur amali paigham bani nau insaan ke liye jari karti hai. Khanqahon se jahan Qur’an o Hadith aur fiqh o diniyat ki taleem ka chashma jari hota hai, wahi nafs ko pakiza banane ke liye roohani tarbiyat ki jati hai, tasawwuf o tariqat ki taleem di jati hai aur haqiqat o ma’rifat ke anwaar se talibaan-e-haq o sidqat ko suthrai bakhshi jati hai.

Yehi wo jagah hai jahan aman o sukoon ke mutalashi aakar apne qalb mein rahat aur zehan mein sukoon paate hain. Khanqahen bhatakte insano ke liye panah aur saaya ban’ti hain. Balaon, dukhon, museebaton, duniya ki alaa’isho se nijat paane ke liye aaj ke madiyat pasand daur mein bhi log inhi boriya nashinon ki bargah mein aate hain aur ishq-e-Ilahi aur mohabbat-e-Rasool ka jaam peete hain. Inhi ki bargahon ka waseela le kar Rab Tabarak wa Ta’ala ke huzoor dast-e-sawal daraaz karte hain aur apne dukhon ka madawa paate hain. Aur bandagan-e-Khuda ko sukoon-e-qalb o zehan ke sath anwaar-e-iman ki daulat bhi hasil hoti hai.

Hindustan ke subah Uttar Pradesh ka zila Gonda mohtaaj-e-ta’aruf nahi. Ye sheher apni ek tareekhi haisiyat rakhta hai aur is sheher ki kai khanqahon mein mashhoor tareen “Khanqah-e-Naimatiya” hai jo salaha sal se ek imtiaz-shan ke sath rushd o hidayat aur khidmat-e-khalq mein lagi hui hai.

“Khanqah-e-Naimatiya”

A Khanqah is a place where people gather for spiritual training and worship, especially the followers of Sufi orders. It is a sanctuary where people detach themselves from worldly life to seek spiritual peace and divine knowledge.
A Khanqah is a source from which the light of Shariat (Divine Law) and Tariqat (The Spiritual Path) radiates. The masters of the spiritual path (Arbab-e-Tariqat) and venerable Sufis established Khanqahs to help seekers traverse the stages of the spiritual journey, and to practice as well as guide others in worship. In every era, these sanctuaries have served as centers for spiritual guidance alongside humanitarian service (Khidmat-e-Khalq), and even today, various Khanqahs continue this noble work in their own unique ways.

It is from here that the verbal, written, and practical messages of love, brotherhood, equality, unity, and harmony are disseminated to humanity. While Khanqahs serve as flowing springs of education for the Qur’an, Hadith, jurisprudence (Fiqh), and religious studies, they simultaneously provide spiritual training to purify the soul (Nafs). They impart the teachings of Tasawwuf (Sufism) and Tariqat, cleansing the seekers of truth and sincerity with the divine lights of ultimate reality (Haqiqat) and gnosis (Ma’rifat).

This is the very place where those searching for peace and tranquility find comfort for their hearts and solace for their minds. Khanqahs serve as a refuge and a protective shade for wandering souls. Even in today’s highly materialistic era, people come to the threshold of these humble, blanket-dwelling saints (Boriya Nashin) to rid themselves of afflictions, sorrows, misfortunes, and worldly impurities. There, they drink the spiritual goblet of Divine Love (Ishq-e-Ilahi) and deep affection for the Prophet (Mohabbat-e-Rasool). Using the spiritual mediation (Waseela) of these holy courts, they raise their hands in supplication before the Almighty Creator, finding the remedy for their grief. Consequently, the servants of God attain peace of mind and heart, along with the invaluable wealth of the light of faith (Anwaar-e-Iman).

The Gonda district in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India, needs no introduction. This city holds significant historical prominence, and among its various spiritual centers, the most renowned is “Khanqah-e-Naimatiya.” For years, it has distinguished itself through its exceptional commitment to spiritual guidance and public service. In terms of spiritual succession and lineage (Khilafat o Janashini), the Khanqah belongs to the Chishtiya Firdausiya Rehmani order, while the practice of spiritual allegiance (Bai’at) flows through the Qadriya order.

The manifestation of Huzoor Ameen al-‘Aarifeen Ustaad al-‘Aashiqeen Khwaja Meer Sayyed Naimat Ali Qutbi (Quddisa Sirrah) took place in a highly blessed household. From its inception to this day, this family has remained unparalleled and matchless in its noble lineage, spiritual miracles (Karamat), nobility, stature, and exquisite inner and outer beauty.

He possessed immense physical beauty and a towering, majestic stature. Anyone who looked at him once would yearn to see him again. Glimpsing his countenance instantly brought the remembrance of God to mind. He possessed a universal vision, was a living embodiment of resolute action, a beautiful personification of ethics and loyalty, a vast ocean of knowledge and wisdom, a flowing river of righteous conduct, and a perfect embodiment of multifaceted virtues and spiritual perfections.

He was a highly revered, grand saint of his time who had attained union with God (Khuda Raseeda), a dignified Shaikh-e-Tariqat (Spiritual Guide), deeply pious and intensely mindful of God (Muttaqi o Parhezgar). He was exceptionally well-mannered, approachable, deeply affectionate, and beloved by all. He was the light of the eyes of the masters of various Sufi orders and the ultimate peace for the hearts of the elders of Ahle-Sunnat. His personality was not only a minaret of light and a dome of divine radiance but also a guiding beacon for future generations.

Every single moment of his life was dedicated to the propagation and consolidation of Islam, as well as the intellectual and practical upliftment and betterment of the Muslim community. He was the everlasting spring of the Qutbiya garden, through whose spiritual benevolence (Faiz) hundreds of people are blessed today, and will continue to be blessed until the morning of the Day of Resurrection.

Hazrat Khwaja Meer Sayyed Naimat Ali (Quddas Sirrahu) belonged to the noble Qutbiya family and was the son of Meer Sayyed Murad Ali (Quddas Sirrahu). His ancestors were the grand masters (Shaikh al-Mashaikh) of the Qadriya Chishtiya Firdausiya order.

He migrated from Kara (in modern-day Prayagraj/Kaushambi) and settled here in the Gonda district, near the sacred shrine (Mazaar) of Hazrat Makhdoom Sayyed Yusuf Gada (R.A.) in Kotwa Dargah, where he continuously engaged himself in rigorous worship and spiritual devotion.

Following this, the marriage (Nikah) of Huzoor Khwaja Meer Sayyed Naimat Ali (Quddisa Sirrah) took place at the residence of Aashiq Ali in Bakwa Dargah. After his marriage, he began residing in Bakwa Dargah, making it his permanent abode. Furthermore, he chose this very location for the establishment of Khanqah-e-Naimatiya.

Ameen al-‘Aarifeen Khwaja Meer Sayyed Naimat Ali (Noorullah Marqadahu) received spiritual authorization (Ijazat) in the four major Sufi orders (Silsila-e-Arba’) from the saint of the era, Huzoor Owais-e-Zamana Qutb al-Aqtab Moulana Shah Fazl-e-Rehman Muhammadi Ganj Muradabadi (Quddisa Sirrah). He was immensely blessed by the prayers and spiritual benevolence (Faiz) of Maulana Baba.

Almighty Allah blessed him with two sons. His elder son, Meer Sayyed Muneer Ahmad, served as a Subedar (military officer) in Bareilly Shareef and also built a mosque there. A’la Hazrat Ahmad Raza Khan Fadil-e-Barelwi (Rahmatullah Alaih) held deep affection and love for him.

The marriage (Nikah) of Sayyed Muneer Ahmad took place into the noble Sadaat-e-Qutbi Hasni family of Domai Pur. Meanwhile, Khwaja Meer Sayyed Basheer Ahmad, the younger son of Khwaja Meer Sayyed Naimat Ali (Quddas Sirrah), was blessed with the grand honor of performing the pilgrimage of Hajj on foot in the holy company of Huzoor Ashraf Ul Aalameen Waris E Panjatan Haji Sayyed Waris Ali Shah. He was appointed as the spiritual successor (Janashin) of Huzoor Meer Sayyed Naimat Ali, and he impeccably carried out the services of the Qadriya Chishtiya Firdausiya Rehmania Naimatiya order.

Following Khwaja Meer Sayyed Basheer Ahmad (Quddisa Sirrah), his two sons inherited his spiritual throne (Masnad). Like the sun and the moon, they fulfilled their spiritual responsibilities magnificently.

One was the saint of the ecstatic path, Huzoor Mard-e-Qalandar Khwaja Meer Sayyed Zameer Ahmad (Quddisa Sirrah), and the other was Huzoor Musleh al-Bilaad, Nafi’ al-‘Ibaad, Mumtaz al-Auliya, Faiz al-Mashaikh Khwaja Meer Sayyed Muhammad Muslim (Quddisa Sirrah).

In addition to the Qadriya Chishtiya Firdausiya Rehmania Naimatiya lineage, Khwaja Meer Sayyed Muhammad Muslim (Quddisa Sirrah) also received spiritual authority in the Qadriya Barkatiya Razviya Hishmatiya order from the Lion of the Ahle Sunnat, Mufti Muhammad Hishmat Ali Khan (Rahmatullah Alaih).

Through the blessed personality of Huzoor Khwaja Meer Sayyed Muhammad Muslim (Quddisa Sirrah), the Almighty granted immense growth and renown to the Naimatiya order, making it widely recognized. For this reason, he is also honored with the title “Aftaab-e-Silsila Naimatiya” (The Sun of the Naimatiya Order).

After Khwaja Meer Sayyed Zameer Ahmad (Quddisa Sirrah) and Khwaja Syed Muhammad Muslim (Quddisa Sirrah), the Qadriya Chishtiya Firdausiya Rehmania Naimatiya order gained widespread fame through the son of Khwaja Meer Syed Muhammad Muslim (Quddisa Sirrah)—Hazrat Allama Maulana Hafiz Khwaja Sayyed Ali Ahmad (Quddisa Sirrah).

Hazrat Khwaja Meer Sayyed Ali Ahmad (Quddisa Sirrah) pledged his spiritual allegiance (Mureed) to Huzoor Ashraf al-‘Ulama Sayyed Shah Hamid Ashraf Ashrafi Jilani (Quddisa Sirrah) and was granted the spiritual vicegerency (Khilafat) of the Ashrafiya Manawariya order.

Simultaneously, he was also bestowed with the Khilafats of the Abul-‘Alaaiya Jahangiriya Hasniya Azeziya Liaqatiya order by Mahboob al-Auliya Khwaja Sufi Liaqat Husain (Quddisa Sirrah), the second Sajjada Nasheen of Khwaja Hasan (Quddisa Sirrah) of Bhensodi Shareef.

At present, the Sajjada Nasheen (Spiritual Head) of the Khanqah Qadriya Chishtiya Firdausiya Rehmania Naimatiya is Sayyed Hasan Ahmad, who currently manages the affairs of the exalted order (Silsila-e-‘Aaliya) and the Khanqah.

May the Generous Lord (Moula Kareem) grant Khanqah-e-Naimatiya even greater ability to serve humanity. Amen.

Have You Ever Wondered How Powerful Salawat/Durood Can Be?

■ Have You Ever Wondered How Powerful Salawat/Durood Can Be?

My dear readers, listen carefully because this is a story that will make your heart wajd with love for our Beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. SubhanAllah the blessed presence of Hazrat Khawaja Qazi Muhammad Sultan Alam Mirpuri رحمة الله عليه, a man whose very breath seemed to carry the Noor of knowledge.

Scholars from far and wide would come to sit in his company, carrying their heavy tomes and countless questions about tricky matters of knowledge. And you know what would happen?

They would flip through pages and pages of books, searching high and low for answers, but the answer would just not appear! Not a single word of the solution in sight, no matter how much they tried. And then, Allahu Akbar, here comes the beautiful secret: Hazrat Mirpuri رحمة الله عليه would take the book gently into his blessed hands, close it, and send a wave of Durood upon our Beloved Prophet ﷺ. And the moment he opened the book again, there it was—the very answer that had been hiding like a shy little bird! SubhanAllah! Can you imagine that? Just from a heartfelt Salawat/Durood, the solution revealed itself!

Allahu Akbar, how wondrous is this! Truly, sending Salawat/Durood upon the Prophet ﷺ is like unlocking treasures that no effort alone can uncover. And this is not some small thing, my dear readers. It has been passed down from reliable sources straight to the poor seeker like you and me—proof that love and devotion have barakah power in the spiritual world.

And now, think about the Hadith of our Beloved ﷺ where he lovingly commands:

“O my Ummah! Send Salawat/Durood upon me abundantly, because the first question you will be asked in the grave is about me.”

SubhanAllah, such a sweet, tender warning! Can you see it? The angels coming with questions, and out of all questions, the first, the most important one, is about the Prophet ﷺ. Why? Because love for him is the key to everything!

So, what does this mean? It means that when the angels Munkar and Nakeer come to ask, the answer that comes from the heart of the believer who has been showering Salawat/Durood will be clear and confident:

“This is my Beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, the Chosen One, the Most Honored, the One we recognize by the clear signs of love and devotion!”

SubhanAllah can you imagine the heart glowing like a lantern, filled with the Noor of love for the Prophet ﷺ?

Every time you send Salawat/Durood, the heart of your soul becomes brighter, the love deeper, and the recognition of the Beloved ﷺ becomes sharper. That is why Nabi Kareem ﷺ emphasized it, over and over, because Salawat/Durood is not just words—it is a bridge, a golden rope, connecting our hearts directly to the soul of our Prophet ﷺ.

So, my dear readers, do not delay. Make Salawat/Durood your constant companion, whisper it, murmur it, let it spill from your heart like the sweetest perfume. And remember, even when the books are closed, when the answers seem hidden, when the world feels dark and confusing, a sincere Salawat/Durood can light the way and reveal what was meant for you.

Truly, in Salawat/Durood there is power, in Salawat/Durood there is love, and in Salawat/Durood there is the key to the heart of the Beloved ﷺ.

So come on, let’s start now! Send Salawat/Durood, send love, and watch the hidden answers of your heart and soul open before your very eyes.



اللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَّعَلَىٰ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ

Love for Belovedﷺ:

■ Love for Belovedﷺ:

A man once came to Imam Shafi‘i ؓ and said, “You claim that your Prophet ﷺ is superior to all the other Prophets, and that whatever honor and rank Allah ﷻ gave to any Prophet, He has also given it to your Master, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. But tell me, has your Prophet ﷺ ever brought a dead person back to life, like Prophet ‘Isa عليه السلام did?”

Now, this man was actually a Christian, which is why he asked such a question. He said, “This is even written in your Qur’an, that ‘Isa عليه السلام gave life to the dead. So you also believe this.”

Imam Shafi‘i ؓ replied, “Yes, indeed, that is true. But let me explain the difference.”

The man asked, “What difference?”

Imam Shafi‘i ؓ said, “The dead that ‘Isa عليه السلام brought back to life were those into whom Allah ﷻ had already once placed a soul. First, they lived, then they died, and then by the command of Allah, ‘Isa عليه السلام revived them again.

But my Master, the Beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, gave life to things into which Allah ﷻ had never placed a soul in the first place. Things that were never meant to be alive – trees, leaves, stones – yet by his blessing, they spoke, they responded, they bore fruit.”

This is the reach of the Prophet ﷺ, his rank, his status, his closeness to Allah ﷻ.

True Rahmah (mercy) is not only to revive what once lived, but to breathe life into what was never alive.

For example, the mountain of Uhud. The Prophet ﷺ said, “Uhud loves me, and I love Uhud.” Now ask yourself, can something lifeless like a mountain feel love? No, only a living being can love. But Uhud responded, Uhud moved, Uhud expressed love, Uhud shook in ecstasy when the Prophet ﷺ stood upon it.

Narrations tell us that when the mountain shook beneath the Prophet ﷺ and the companions, the Prophet ﷺ said to it, “Be firm, O Uhud, for upon you is a Prophet, a Siddiq, and two martyrs.”

And the mountain stilled out of obedience. This is why the Prophet ﷺ declared, “Uhud loves us, and we love Uhud.”

Look at the greatness of love! Whoever loves the Prophet ﷺ, whether human, jinn, or even stone and tree, will be honored by Allah ﷻ.

That is why the mountain of Uhud will be in Paradise, though it never recited the Shahadah. And the palm tree, known as Hannānā, that cried in longing for the Prophet ﷺ when he left it, will also be in Paradise.

This is called the Kalima of Love, the Word of Ishq (divine love).

Once, a Jew challenged the Prophet ﷺ and said, “If you can make that tree testify that you are the Messenger of Allah, I will believe in you.”

The Prophet ﷺ replied, “I do not need to call it. You go and call it, and it will come.”

So the man went to the tree and said, “O tree, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is calling you.”

And suddenly, the tree pulled its roots out of the earth and walked, step by step, until it reached the feet of the Prophet ﷺ and fell in prostration.

Seeing this miracle, the Jew immediately recited the Shahadah and embraced Islam.

This is the rank of our Beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ – not only the reviver of souls but the giver of life to what was never alive, the one whom even mountains and trees could not resist loving.
