He was born in 1879/1880 and died in 1915 at Mussa Zai Sharif, Dera Ismail Khan (present day Pakistan). His legacy and influence is still widespread in the world in the form of his followers and methodology. ==Short biography== He was born on 15 Muharram 1297 AH (30 December 1879) at Mussa Zai Sharif, Dera Ismail Khan (present day Pakistan). He was son and successor of the famous Naqshbandi shaikh Khwaja Muhammad Usman Damani. He studied with Mulla Shah Muhammad and graduated at the age of 14. He took the Sulook (spiritual guidance) from his father and also studied books of Tasawwuf from him such as Maktubat (letters) of Imam Rabbani Shaykh Ahmed Sirhindi and Maktubat (letters) of Khwaja Muhammad Masum.〔(Jalwa Gah-e-Dost (Urdu) 2nd edition (2008) by Khwaja Muhammad Tahir Bakhshi )〕 His father awarded him Khilafat (Ijazah in Sufism) on 3 Zul-Qada 1311 AH (10 May 1894) and gave him written Ijazat-nama (Sanad).〔 In 1324 AH, he went to Makkah and Madinah for the Muslim pilgrimage Hajj and visiting the Roza of the Islamic prophet Muhammad with 36 other companions. His companion Haji Mulla Sadr narrates that when he was visiting Madina, one day the shaikh took bath and went to visit the grave of the Prophet. He met with the Mujawirs (persons responsible to maintain a shrine) and talked to them; they gave him an Arabic dress which he wore, and gave him a burning candle. He lighted two cressets from that candle and entered the Rodha (inside of the shrine of Prophet Muhammad) in that Arabic dress. After praying for long, he came out and expressed gratitude to the Mujawirs. Khwaja Sirajuddin awarded 34 or 36 persons with Khilafat. His most famous Khalifa and successor was Hazrat Pir Fazal Ali Qureshi, who was a prominent shaykh who spiritual legacy is still active throughout the world.〔〔 Khwaja Sirajuddin fell severely sick while he was 35 years old. He also consulted Hakim Ajmal Khan but could not recover and died due to Peripneumonia and Fever on Friday 26 Rabi al-Awwal 1333 AH (12 February 1915). He was buried alongside his father's grave at Mussa Zai Sharif in Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan.〔 His letters written to various persons are published with Urdu translation. The collection is part of the book in which letters of his father are also included. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Muhammad Sirajuddin Naqshbandi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
