Silsla e Naqeebia...

Qibla Baba Huzoor, M. Naqeeb Ullah Shah (may Allah be please with him) got teachings of four major spiritual orders, known as Qadri, Suharwardi, Chishti & Naqshandi, from his Murshid (spiritual leader) Hazrat Khawaja Hassan Shah Sultan Ul Auliya. Hazrat Shah Abdul Haye was the 1st one to teach Hazrat Khawaj Hassan Shah the knowledge of three spiritual orders and also granted him permission to get knowledge of the fourth one.
All Naqeebi, murid of either Hazrat Khawaja Sufi M. Naqeeb Ullah Shah or Hazrat Khawaja Sufi M. Azmat Ullah Shah, wear Burda Shareef or a cap with five colors which makes them get recognised by each other easily as there are hundreds of thousands of Naqeebi the world over.

Burda Shareef is originated from the poem Qasida al-Burda "Poem of the Mantle" is an ode of praise for the Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) composed by the eminent Sufi Imam Salih Sharaf ad-Din Aby Abd Allah Muhammad Ibn Hasan Al Busiri (1212-1296) of Egypt. The poem, whose actual title is al-Kawakib ad-Durriya fi Mad? Khayr al-Bariya ("Celestial Lights in Praise of the Best of Creation"), is famous throughout the Muslim World.
