الفتاح
AL-FATTAH
(The Opener, The Granter of Success)

The One who is the judge and revealer. The One who opens what is closed. The One who is the judge of what shall be opened. The One by whose guidance that which was closed is opened and the unclear is made clear. The One who lifts veils and who opens the heart. The One who unties the knots, and softens that which was hardened. The One who continually offers goodness and mercy. The One who gives victory. The One who opens the door to success. The One who holds the keys to victory and success. The One who reveals the solution to all problems.

About
Our Sufi Order

In the year 1895, Khwaja Habib Ali Shah (Rahmatullah alai), the great Sufi saint of the Chishti Nizami Order in India, sent his beloved disciple and spiritual successor, Shah Ghulam Muhammad Siddique (Rahmatullah alai), the humble descendant of Hazrath Abu Bakr Siddiq (Rahmatullah alai), to the Southern tip of Africa to propagate Islam in general and the Chishti Order in particular.

The Habibia Soofie Centre in Pietermaritzburg was established in 1909.

We're on a Mission to

grow the knowledge of
the youth who will be the
generation after us.
