Sufi mystic order in Sunni Islam
The Kubrawiya order (Arabic: سلسلة کبرویة) or Kubrawi order,[1] also known as Kubrawi Hamadani, or Hamadani Kubra,[citation needed] is a Sufi order. The order traces its spiritual lineage (Silsilah) back to the Islamic prophet, Muhammad, through Ali—Muhammad’s cousin and son-in-law, and the First Imam—as do many other Sufi orders. The Kubrawiya order is named after its 13th-century founder Najm al-Din Kubra, who lived in Konye-Urgench (present day Turkmenistan) under the Khwarazmian dynasty.[2] In 1221, the Mongols captured Konye-Urgench and killed much of its population, including Sheikh Najmuddin Kubra.
The Kubrawiya order places emphasis on the universality of its approach.[3] It is popular in Bangladesh, Mauritius, eastern India, and some areas of Pakistan.
Mir Sayyid Ali Hamadani was a missionary, scholar, and saint of the Kubrawiyyah order, who helped the order to expand into parts of South Asia, China, and Central Asia (especially among nomads) from the 14th century onwards.[4]
In Iran, the Kubrawiya order was split into branches after Khwaja Ishaq Khatlani succeeded the founder. Eventually, differences arose between two claimants to the succession, and between their respective supporters: one group—the supporters of Muhammad Nurbakhsh Qahistani, who lived in Qaen—called themselves the Noorbakshia or Nurbakshia; the other group supported Syed Abdullah Barzish Abadi, who was based in Mashhad. The present Noorbakshia are found in areas such as Baltistan and western Ladakh (Kargil); the supporters of Barzish Abadi initially spread mainly within Khorasan, though they later spread to other countries as well.[5]
