In a solemn address, Sheikh Adnan Efendi announced that he has renewed his Bayʿah with Mawlana Sheikh Nazim and formally recognized Sheikh Mehmed Efendi as the spiritual successor of Mawlana Sheikh Nazim. He emphasized that this pledge is exclusive: any previous allegiance to other guides is withdrawn, and all worship and practice are now directed under the guidance of the affirmed sheikh. Speaking on behalf of brothers and sisters on the same path, he invited the community to affirm this commitment together.
This declaration reflects a core principle of our tariqa: faithful adherence to a single living guide who embodies the wisdom of the lineage. By publicly renewing his oath, Sheikh Adnan Efendi models the humility and clarity we are called to on the Sufi path. Those who wish to deepen their understanding of this succession or take part in our gatherings are welcome to join our live meetings.
