Salam. Have you got the details of the Dergah in London ?

No. It's so weird. I contacted the "top" regional wakils etc. and they all assured me that they would provide me with London contact details, and all called back to say that they've only been able to get contact details for Germany or something. I'm currently without a telephone, and have been very self-centered and wrapped up in my own silly affairs for a couple of months, so I didn't make enough effort, perhaps, while I still had a telephone. I apologize for this. I did ask one of the sisters in the village the last time I went for ziyarah, and she said that she thought maybe people were wary of providing contact details for a public forum. Maybe your destined path is to go and visit him in person first =)

Speaking of visiting, I have now gone by plane several times, and just thought I would share the details of the last bit of the trip:

From Ankara Esenboga airport, you take the plane to Adiyaman. That's it. There are some mureeds assigned to picking up visiting mureeds from each plane that comes into Adiyaman airport, which is not too far from the village anyway. I think there is no more than one plane per day flying in from Ankara. So far, each time I have just picked up my bags and walked out of the airport building, and there has been a waiting minibus, ready to go directly to the village. Easy!
