Its quite surprising as well as frustrating that your shaykh has mureeds from many countries , still he has no website in English.
I mean, in this era of new-age sufism when people get deceived by the fake sufis who maintain attractive websites, the real sufis should be promoted properly to uphold a good image of Sufism.

An website on the net is a good way of of promoting true Sufism. One such website is shown below.

http://www.tasawwuf.org/

Anyway, I would like to visit this Nakhsbandi dergah of your shaykh in London. How can I get the address ?
One more thing , have you read or seen any English biography of the following Nakhsbandi shyakhs ?

Mevlana Halid-i Baghdadi ( RAH )
Mevlana Seyyid Abdullah Hakkari
Seyyid Taha Hakkari
Seyyid Sibgatullah Arvasi
Abdurrahman Tahi
Fethullah Verkanisi
Muhammed Diyaeddin Nurshini
Ahmed Haznevi
Gavs Seyyid Abdulhakim Bilvanisi el-Huseyni

Seyyid Muhammed Rashid el-Huseyni ( DB) who gave khilfat to Hazrat Abdul Baki (DB ) in Menzil.


Ah, that's the challenge

Joking aside, tasawwuf.org is one of my favorite websites and I recommend it on this forum frequently. It is exactly as the website of a Naqshiband Shaykh SHOULD be! I don't know why my own Shaykh has chosen not to have a website, by the way.

The names you mentioned.... My husband has a huge book about them, or rather all the names in the Silsila of our tariqa. Unfortunately it's all in Turkish, and the kind of Turkish that would take me several days to translate a couple of chapters from (learned stuff). I only know anecdotes about them (especially about Gavsi Seyyid Abdulhakim al-Huseyni and Seyyid Muhammed Rashid al-Huseyni). I've scribbled a post-it and stuck it on my monitor; inshaAllah I can ask the sisters on Monday about any English-language version (I know a few who work at the publishing house). I'll also ask them about London contact details for the mureeds there, inshaAllah.
