TARIQA TIJANIYYA HIERARCHY
Them: "Can you explain
the hierarchy in place in the Tijaniyya Order today? Who is the leader? What is
a "muqaddim"? What is "tarbiyyah"? How is it different from
other Turuq?"
Me: "The hierarchy in the
Tariqa Tijaniyya is as follows:
There is only ONE Shaykh and
ONE Leader in our Tariqa and that is Mawlana Shaykh Ahmad al-Tijani (ra).
Beneath him are:
1. Khulafa (Complete
successors; Living embodiments)
2. Shuyukh of three kinds:
A. Shaykh al-Ta'lim (a teacher
of the essential knowledge of the Tariqa)
B. Shaykh al-Tarbiyya (a guide
through the stations of the spiritual journey of Suluk, from repentance to
gnosis)
C. Shaykh al-Tarqiyya (a guide
capable of dispensing constant spiritual elevation & expansion in Divine
Gnosis)
***Some Shuyukh embody all
three***
3. Muqaddams (Authorized
Representatives) of two kinds:
A. Muqaddam Mutlaq (unlimited
authorization in the Tariqa to dispense all of its litanies & administer
its spiritual training or Tarbiyya)
B. Muqaddam Muqayyad (limited
authorization with regards to everything mentioned above)
4. Murids (Initiated disciples
or those who have received the Tijani Awrad & Adhkar from an authorized
person). They are of three types:
A. Tilamidh (Students)
B. Fuqara (Aspirants)
C. As’hab (Companion)
There is a comprehensive
breakdown of each of these, but for brevity sake I'll keep it simple.
Tilamidh (Students) are those
who may have only taken the Wird but not much else.
Fuqara (Aspirants) are those
with the Awrad and other special Adhkar and also Tarbiyya.
As’hab (Companion) are those
with all Awrad & Adhkar, as well as Tarbiyya and Tarqiyya (constant
spiritual elevation & growth).
Tarbiyya within the Tariqa
Tijaniyya is a very unique and mystical form of spiritual training or
education, it occurs by the Himma or Spiritual Force of Shaykh Ahmad al-Tijani
(ra) and with the appearance of its Fayda or its promised Divine Flood of
Gnosis, Tarbiyya is the unique gift of Shaykh al-Islam Alhajj Ibrahim Niasse
(ra), who manifest this great Tijani Divine Flood or Spiritual Effusion in the
year 1929/30. The Tijani Fayda brings the direct Knowledge of God to all of
those connected with it, who receive its Tarbiyya.
The Tariqa Tijaniyya is
different from other Turuq in the same way that the Ummah of Prophet Muhammad
(saws) is different from others Communities. We belong to the Two Seals: the
Seal of the Prophets AND the Seal of the Saints!
This is the short answer. See
your Muqaddam or Shaykh for more information.

COVID-19 REFLECTION & OUR SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT
Salaam Alaikum,
As we stay safe in this trying time, by observing all safety precautions
and making duaa fervently—asking Allah—to protect us from the pandemic and that
He cleanse the world of the virus and all other forms of afflictions in the
world today.
We should also use this period to reflect more on Allah and take more
serious—our Suluk & Sayr (Spiritual Journey)—practically and theoretically
[by updating our sufi knowledge from books and online available sources].
May Allah be with us all, May he Guide and Guard us always. And we also
pray that Allah heal the infected people, bijahi Muhammad Rasulullah (SAW),
Ameen!
