As salaamu alaykum. What Madhhab does the Shaykh follow?

  Wa alaikum as salaam! The Shaykh is Maliki in fiqh and Ashari in creed. His tariqa itself is a branch of the Shadhilliya: https://www.karkari.org/shaykh/lineage https://www.karkari.org/shaykh/lineage Let me know if you have any other questions!

    Shukran. It's interesting that he is a Shadhili. I'm in the middle of reading a commentary of a work by Shaykh Ibn Ata Allah al-Iskandari written by Shaykh Rashid Ahmad Gangohi رحمة الله عليهما. It's very intense.

      Certainly! In fact, besides the Book of God, the Hikam of al-Iskandari was the only other book our Shaykh relied on during his own wayfaring.
