Q: What is mufti’s opinion on being initiated into the Naqshbandi tariqa? Is it authentic? Allegedly there is a connection from the Sheikh Muhammad Nazim Adil al-Haqqani qaddasa-l-Lahu sirrah to Prophet Muhammad ibn Abd Allah, Salla Allahu `alayhi wa alihi wa sallam, is this true?
A: All silsilahs reach up in the same way. You need to ensure that the silsilah that you have linked yourself up with is conforming to the sunnah.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
