Sheykh Effendi is working on our ego’s, showing us our nature and giving us a glimpse into what is coming.
Every person has a choice to be made for either haqq or falsehood, and it needs to be made soon. Time to be clear on our answer.
I was faced with some of the usual confusion that surrounds the Naksibendi tariqat online recently, and I was moved to clarify:
Much of the information that is online regarding Sheykh Maulana Nazim al Hakkani is from either overexcited mureeds who don’t know any better or those deliberately looking to manipulate Sheykh Maulana’s name in order to progress an agenda. For example, one site gives the illusion that Sheykh Maulana Nazim wrote the words presented, but it is in fact a book written by others. These same anonymous people don’t identify themselves or any source of any of the pages except via association of random pictures to text.
It is best to stick with those that offer clear audio or video of Sheykh Maulana, or transcribed Sohbets by trusted mureeds such as Khairiyah Siegel.
That is all. Everything else is a confusion surrounding Sheykh Maulana. It is the sign of the times that saintly people can be abused in this new way on this new medium, but it is an unfortunate fact and reality of the cruelty and rising tyranny in our generation. At the same time, nothing people say about their wariness or disregard for Sheykh Maulana hurts him in any way. But, as there are not so many saintly people like this available to us today, to hold a negative opinion is certainly dangerous as we know that Allah loves His Wali’s…
Sheykh Maulana does not write books and Sheykh Maulana does not visit websites or make web pages. He gives short talks, Sohbets. These are plain for everyone to hear. The most you will see is transcribed versions of those. Anyone taking a cursory look at those sohbets and the things available under such sites, which put his picture on the top of every page, will realize instantly that this is not the work of the same man.
Explaining to others why learning Tariqat by reading is a waste of time is not even necessary.
The best way to come to some respectible opinion is to listen to Sheykh Maulana or the other Sheykhs, online or otherwise.
Probably the largest single library of his audio is available here:

From this weekend
Some pictures were taken during Sohobet and Zikr in Manhattan. After sohobet we dim the lights, usually leaving one red light on.
