Summary
The Naqshbandiyah al Aliyyah order is permissible for its followers to practise as long as it does not conflict with the principles of creed and Sharia agreed upon by Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jamaah scholars of the Ash'ari and Maturidi schools. Its practice in Johor is subject to approval by the Johor Islamic Religious Council. Sufi practices containing elements of shirk and disbelief are prohibited, and discussion of matters specific to the salik in public is disallowed as it may cause misunderstanding.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
