Hadrat Mawlānā Khālid al-Baghdādī ʻUthmānī Kurdī Shāfiʿī Naqshbandī Mujaddidī (d.1242 AH) qaddas-Allāhu sirrahū is one of the greatest Naqshbandi masters who spread and firmly established the noble Naqshbandi Sufi Order in the Middle East, Turkey and Europe. He was an illustrious deputy of the great Sufi saint of India Shāh ʿAbdullāh alias Ghulām-ʿAlī Dahlawī (d.1240 AH).
In his short life of 47 years, he not only achieved the highest qualifications of exoteric knowledge, but also gained sublime spiritual stations and spread this noble Path into the farthest areas of Earth including the Middle East, Europe, Africa, Indonesia and many other countries.

Defender of the Sunni Islam

During his lifetime, the Wahhabi sect was emerging in the Arabia, fueled and funded by the European colonists. Europeans wanted to destroy the Ottoman caliphate, the last symbol of Islamic power, and followed their strategy of divide and conquer. They supported the Wahhabis against the Ottomans in the form of Arabian nationalism. The Wahhabis raided the holy cities of Islam Makkah and Madinah, and killed many innocent people including scholars and Sufi masters. They attacked and desecrated the holy places such as the noble tombs of the Sahaba and Ahl al-Bayt. Mawlānā Khālid ordered some of his disciples and deputies to take part in the defense of the holy cities and fight against the Wahhabi terrorists.
Deputies
Mawlānā Khālid trained thousands of disciples in the sublime Sufi Path of Naqshbandī Mujaddidī, and a number of them became his deputies and successors. These deputies traveled far and wide and spread this Sufi Order in many lands. Here I want to list the names of these great saints and their whereabouts.
