Assalamu 'Alaikum.

After several weeks I want to visit Istanbul and other famous Turkish
cities. I would also like to meet some Sufi shakhs there. However, I want to avoid fake Sufi groups. Does anyone know genuine Sufi shaykhs in Turkey , particularly in Istanbul ?

Ensure you meet Shaykh Mahmud Efendi in the Fatih Area and Sh. Muhammad Amin Siraj at the Fatih Masjid.

[suingincentix]

I fully agree with Mufti Husain. You can also see clips of Shaykh Mahmut Efendi in youtube.com to get a idea of how he looks like to remember when you're there .

[Caregrasy]

ahh shaykh mahmud effendi mashallah....

By the way mufti husain why do the mureeds wear trousers below the ankles.... Is this the case with shaykh mahmud as well? But yes i met them and they left a great impression on me. They kissed my hand when they found out i was from india and said have u been to sirhind... lol. if only they knew how much of a sinner i am...

There are dozens of hotels nearby, but I cannot recommend any, as I stayed with a friend, not at a hotel.

Yes, it is the same Shaykh.

[ChrisGoldstein]

Yes, it is the same Shaykh.

That would mean that he is a student of 'Allamah Zahid al-Kawthari ?

[gfkasjhfg]

Yes, the Shaykh is famous for being possibly the last remaining student of Allamah Kawthari.
He also has Ijazah from a large number of senior Ulama.

While I don't normally go hunting for these "Tabarruki Ijazat", I made a point of getting Ijazah from this Shaykh, due to his link with Allamah Kawthari.
It was a wonderful majlis, with the Shaykh bringing us all to tears with his touching words and dua.

AsalaamzWW

Mufti Hussain and/or Br Nu'ayman - would you be able to write a few small paragraphs on Mufti Mohammad Amin (db) his background, his teachers, his works etc as i might do a poster for his 1 week visit to the UK. Any help would be grately appreciated.

To those who have requested a recording inshallah i'll see if this can be done at least for one talk if not all that are delivered over the week.

[sabbixsweraco]

What other cities is he scheduled to visit, and which mosque in leciester is will he be speaking at?

Thanks

Which tariqah does Shaykh Muhammad Amin follow ? Nakhsbandi ? If so, who is his spiritual master ?

Does anyone know the spiritual lineage of Shaykh Mahmud effendi (dB ) ?

Just wondering, how does one gain an 'ijaza'?

Assalamu 'Aleykum,

Thanks for the info. Well, I have seen him in the youtube. How can I go to Menzil from Istanbul ? How many hours it take to go there ?

I did a google search to find the spiritual lineage of your shaykh. But failed to find any. Would you please mention his spiritual lineage ?
