Shattari

Shattari

Shattari (Arabic: شطاری ) is a Sufi order within the mystic branches of Islam which was founded in South Asia in fifteenth century. Later the membership of this order spread to all parts of Pakistan and India.Most Sufi orders defined themselves by initiatic lineages that went through Hadrat Junayd, the Baghdadian master of sober Sufism. By contrast the Shattar derived their authority from chains of tranmission that went to the Khorasanian ecstatic, Bayazid Bistami.

The Shattari Sufi master, Shaykh Muhammad Ghawth Gwaliyari, born 7 Rajab 907 or 16 January 1502, at Gwaliar and died at 14 Ramadan 970 or 7 May 1563 [ [http://www.unc.edu/~cernst/pdf/UTRECHT.pdf Persecution and circumspection in Shattari Sufism] ] .
