Summary

The Federal Territories Syariah Legal Consultative Committee decided that the Naqshbandi order is in principle a recognised order practised by many scholars. Its branch, the Naqshbandiyya Aliyyah currently led by Sheikh Muhammad (Mehmet) Adil, may be practised by its followers in the Federal Territories on condition that the practice does not contradict the fundamentals of creed and sharia. Practitioners must ensure nothing occurs that is unsuited to local customs and norms. The order's leader or appointed representative must hold a teaching credential (tauliah) issued by the Federal Territories Mufti's Office.
