Question:
Salam,
I took baya with sheikh Nazim online, but after few days one person who was from another silsilah said that he met with sheikh Nazim and online baya is not valid, and is not mentioned any where. I stopped reading daily award. Please explain if online baya is valid or not. I need some thing for istikhara which show me true thing. I met with many people and many who cheated me. I need something to know who is sincere and who is wrong with me.
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
If it was not valid then Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, authorized Calipha of Mawlana Shaykh Nazim al-Haqqani, would not have created the webpage for online baya`.
Stop listening to people. They are jealous, and Allah knows best. Instead consult your Shaykh for everything (asking through Eshaykh is alright).
