Question:
Assalamu allaykum! I am a mureed of our beloved Sheikh Nazim Adil Al-Haqqani from Uzbekistan. Right now I am studying in Sweden. Unfortunately, I was not able to find any zikr center of our tariqat or Khalifa of Sheikh Nazim near my place. Is there one here in Sweden? If I need from whom can I seek a physical advice and guidance?
There is one Naqshbandia dergah who is founded by Sufis following Sheikh Abdulbaki El-Husayni from Turkey (Menzil). My question is can I join their dergah, attend their suhabas? How about zikr, can I perfom zikr with them or will it affect my mureed status to Sheikh Nazim? InshAllah I very much love Sheikh Nazim and thus worried and afraid of making any mistake which could displease him.
Sorry for taking your time, May Allah Subhana Wa Taala reward you.
Answer:
`Alaykum as-Salam,
You may attend and perform but wear your turban and make rabita with Mawlana Shaykh Nazim.
