There are a number of chains of dissemination of sufism but the one veering around mostly the acts, doings and approvals of Prophet Muhammad Sallallalo 'Alaihai wa Sallum is Naqshbandiya-Mujaddidiya silsila.

The present book traces the origin and dissemination of the Naqshbandiya-Mujaddidya silsila of Sufism right from Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq (Raz.), through Khwaja Baha-ud-din Naqshband and Imam Rabbani Mujaddid Alf Sani and their spiritual guides and successors down to the Twentieth Century. It is based on first rate authentic sources and will go a long way in broadening our knowledge about the spread of Sufism in India with its well laid down connectivity with the Central Asian lands.
