We're never very keen on sharing stuff with government officials. We're worried they might start taxing us.

I could always ask about the London dargah for mureeds of my Shaykh, I s'pose. Explain that the government is asking...

Yes , the govt wants to tax on the commodity called " Peace of the heart ". Since, abundance zikr brings peace to your heart and then this peachful heart enhances your economic productivity , the govt needs to charge
some tax on this inner peace. Recently, the British govt has successfully tested a peace meter which can measure the degree of peace by sensing the spiritual light emanating from a zakir ( the man who does zikir ).
So, the now govt wants to install those peace meters in zikr-centers where all those Tasawwuf activities are perfomed.

By the way, I have never heard of Nakhsbandi dergah of Shaykh Abdul Baki ( DB) in London. I went many times to London and never met any Turkish mureed of that shaykh. All I know that
there are mureeds of a Manchester based Pakistani nakhsbandi shaykh in London. Besides, in London you can also find many mureeds of a Cyprus based shaykh.
