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.
