Bismillah
As-salamu ´alaykum,

Our Master, Shaykh Muhammad bin Yahya al-Ninowy (may Allah Ta´ala preserve him) is without the shadow of a doubt a gem from the immense treasure of ruhaniyyah. He generally does not allow everyone to just give bay´a without prior consideration. Rather he wants to make sure that there is munasabat (congeniality) and dedication (from the side of the murid). He will make istikhara (seek the guidance of Allah Ta´ala) before taking anyone on. It is an ´ilmi based tariqah, so as a student you will be asked to memorize, learn and master books of Aqidah and the Fiqh of at least one math'hab at a basic level. It is truly a tariqah for Suluk (travelling), not just for barakah. Keep that in mind. If you put the effort in, you will gain like never before.

I have sat with, studied and taken from numerous shuyukh of various fields, including tasawwuf, and I can easily say that I have found none paralell to the noble Shaykh. He is authorized in just about every main tariqah that you will find, including many various branches; he is also a great Muhaddith (hadith scholar); authorized to give fatwa in the Shafi´i, Hanafi and Maliki schools; as well as mastering the various qira´at (modes of recitation) of the Qur'an. He was authorized in the variout tariqahs by many of the great masters. He formally gives the Shadhiliyya, Rifa´iyya and Qadiriyya, but one should be able to tap in to the fayd of the other turuq, such as the Naqshbandiyya, Khalwatiyya, Sammaniyya, Mawlawiyya, etc. as many of us have been blessed to experience.

The Shaykh makes a point to try to be as accessible as he can to murids, receiving and replying emails etc. He (hafithahu'Allah) is not Barelwi, nor is he Deobandi, and you will find that there are both Deobandi and Barelwi murids of the Shaykh, as well as those from other backgrounds. No matter who you are and what your background is; if you are sincere, willing to work hard to better yourself, the ruhani drink of Shaykh al-Ninowy (hafithahu'Allah) will surely quench your thirst.

wassalam
