The great Saint Saiyidul Arifeen Haadiye Ilallah Ala Huzur Shyakh Sayyed Shah Muhammad Siddiq Qaderee Chistee Firdousee Abul Uayee (1868-1942 CE) was the founder-Shyakh and noble architect of Abululaiya Siddiqia tariqa. He was also the 40th direct descendant of the Holy Prophet of Islam (ﷺ) through his grandson Imam Hussein.

As per the instruction of His noble Shaykh, Qudwat Al-Salekeen Fakhrul-Aawwaleen Wa Akhireen Sayyed Shah Tajuddin Shakir Mun’eme Abululayee, Shyakh Sayyed Shah Muhammad Siddiq migrated from Sheikhpura district, Munger division, Bihar state, India to the then East Bengal (present day Bangladesh) in 1919 C.E and engaged Himself in preaching Islam and Sufism in the region. Since then in the following two decades His holiness untiringly put all efforts to spread the tariqa even up to the remote corners of the greater districts of Dhaka, Comilla, Sylhet, Pabna and Mymensing. His extra-superior spiritual attainments, supported with invincible zeal, perseverance, diligence, tolerance and dedication enabled His Holiness to embrace thousands of people under the umbrella of the Silsila and to reform them as devoted to the norms ideologies and principles of the order.

After A’ala Huzur breathed his last in 1942 C.E, His only son and Mahboob-e-Aulia Qutub-e-Rabbani Maula Huzur Shyakh Sayyed Shah Mohammad Farouq Qadree Abululayee succeeded as the head of the order. For the following four decades His Holiness Maula Huzur, in the midst of manifold odds and obstacle, successfully spread the mission of the tariqa to people of all classes of the entire cross section of the society and thus established the silsila on firm foundation.

After Maula Huzur Sayyid Shah Mohammad Farouq, His second son, the noble hearted Sufi, Sayyidul Abedin Murshid-e-Iilallah A’aqa Huzur Hazrat Sayyed Shah Murtaza Hussein Abululayee Qaderi Chistee Firdousee succeeded as the head of Abululayia Siddiqia order. Despite His Holiness was a noble lover of human being and was kind hearted to his disciples, He was a man of strong principles. His Holiness used to give top priority to the restoration of all formal norms, principles and dogma of Islam and Sufism. Immediately after A’aka Huzur’s succession as Shaykh al-Tariqa (head of the order) He declared that A’ala Huzur Sayyed Shah Muhammad Siddiq (his grandfather and grand Shyakh) spiritually instructed Him to rename His Khanqah and his Sufi order as Abululayia Siddiqia Khanqa Sahrif and Abululayia Siddiqia Tariqa. Since then the order, headed by A’aka Huzur has been identified as ‘Abululayia Siddiqia Tariqa’ and the centers as ‘Abululayia Siddiqia Khanqah’. It is to be noted that from the time of A’aka Huzur till to date the present Abululaiya Siddiqia Tariqa and Khanqah have been progressing with its own exclusive identity in respect of both order and institutional features.

During the time of A’ala Huzur Sayyed Shah Muhammad Siddiq the khanqah was known as Bargah-e- Shakeria (ref: Aadab Al- Murideen). The name was derived from the holy name of A’ala Huzur’s Sufi master Shah Tajjud Din Shakir. After Maula Huzur, His tariqa was divided into two parts: one headed by his eldest son Sayyed Shah Muhammad Usman Gani and the other headed by his second son Sayyed Shah Murtaza Husein (A’aka Huzur) who, virtually, succeeded the very Khanqah of Maula Huzur.

After the holy visaal of A’aqa Huzur Pak in 2007 CE, His only son Saiyadee Huzur Paak Saiyadina Usama Shah Qaderi Abululayee succeeds the order as the Sajjadanasheen. Golden touch of spiritual excellence, supported with extra-ordinarily broad intellectual spectrum and vast scholarly knowledge, nourished in His Holiness, have already steered up the silsila towards a highly superior landmark at new horizon. By now the silsila has already spread in forty countries beyond Bangladesh.
