On Sunday, 7 December 2014, the Royal Ottoman Society gathered at Nawab’s Restaurant on Stockport Road, Manchester, for the launch of Holy Legacy, the newest work by Sheikh Mehmed Adil al‑Haqqani. Ayberk Efendi introduced the event, presenting Sheikh Mehmed Adil together with his trusted vizier, Sheikh Bahauddin.
Holy Legacy reflects the spiritual heritage transmitted from Sheikh Nazim al‑Haqqani to his successor, Sheikh Mehmed Adil al‑Haqqani. Its pages offer teachings on love, service and the inner journey toward divine remembrance, framed within the Ottoman‑Sufi tradition that shapes our community today.
The evening was more than a book launch: members and friends sat together in fellowship, shared reflections and reaffirmed their commitment to the living legacy of the Naqshbandi‑Haqqani order. With heartfelt prayers and the presence of respected teachers, it was a vivid reminder that our spiritual lineage continues to flourish across continents.
We invite all who feel drawn to this heritage to deepen their connection. Become a member of the Royal Ottoman Society here and join the wider community online. May the teachings of Sheikh Mehmed Adil Efendi inspire us all to walk the path of love, humility and service.
