Shaykh Abdul-Rahman Abu Al-Wafa Naqshbandi Mujaddidi Khalidi (RA)

Shaykh Abdul-Rahman Abu Al-Wafa Naqshbandi Mujaddidi Khalidi (RA)

 
He was second son of Shaykh Siraj ad-Din and attained the station of Sainthood & Guidance (Maqam ul Wilayat wal irshad). He was a scholar, an adept writer and an illuminator of the hearts. After his father’s death and due to extreme mores, he moved to Baghdad, but did not last long. He died in the Khanqah of Shaykh Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani & is buried in the Khanqah of al-Ghawth al Azam. When he died, he was buried another place in Baghdad. All of sudden al Ghawth al Azam came in dream of Custod ian (Naqib al Ashraf) thrice that he should transfer Shaykh Abdul Rahman’s body to his shrine which he did. He has a Collection of poetry (Diwan). May Allah sanctify his precious soul
