Silsilah Naqshbandia
After one is
initiated as a mureed, one's Sheikh will hand over a copy of the Shijra
Sharif to the mureed.
A Shijra Sharif contains the names of
all the Friends of Allah (swt), in your chain, starting from our Holy
Prophet (saw) all the way down to your Sheikh.
It is by virtue of these Friends of
Allah (swt) that you will receive spiritual faiz and barkah.
By virtue of the daily recitation of
the Shijra Sharif, one's spiritual connection will remain afresh and
serve to create a sense of love for each of the Friends of Allah (swt)
within the chain.
Also by reading one's Shijra often, one
is repeatedly renewing one's Bai'at, reaffirming one's convictions and
displaying love for the Friends of Allah (swt), all of which bring great
results in this world and the hereafter. Rest assured, that by
remembering the Friends of Allah (swt) you are in turn being remembered
and will remain in the protecting and affectionate spiritual gaze of
your Masters.
The following constitutes our Shijra
Sharif, which should be recited by our mureeds, atleast once a day.
Preferably after Salaatul Fajr or after Salaatul Isha.
