Kubrawiya
The Kubrawiya order () or Kubrawi order, also known as Kubrawi Hamadani, is a Sufi order. The order traces its spiritual lineage (Silsilah) back to the Islamic prophet, Muhammad, through Ali—Muhammad's cousin and son-in-law, and the First Imam—as do many other Sufi orders. The Kubrawiya order is named after its 13th-century founder Najm al-Din Kubra, who lived in Konye-Urgench (present day Turkmenistan) under the Khwarazmian dynasty. In 1221, the Mongols captured Konye-Urgench and killed much of its population, including Sheikh Najmuddin Kubra.
