Khathamun Awliya
Khathamun Awliya

Question:

Salamalaikum to all our beloved Shuyukh,
Please enlighten us of the title of Grand Shaykh “Khathamun Awliya” as in whats it about? What does it mean? Since we pronounce Grand Shaykhs name as Khathamun Awliya Shaykh Seyed Abdullah Dajesthani &
Because some comment that the word “Khathamun” signifies as the “seal” or “final” ( like in Khathamun Anbiya means final messenger) how come there Awliya after Grand Shaykh?

Please advise on this.

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,
Such a title exists at many times and in many tariqas and is indicative of love of certain murids for their shaykh, no more and no less.
