Wikipedia notes that in Anglicanism alone "there are presently thirteen active religious orders for men, fifty-three for women, and eight mixed gender." Browsing by practice status lets a visitor tell a living order apart from one that has since died out.FactsLiving tradition, practised todaySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedReligious Orders 1Living tradition, practised todayFilter Results69 entriesFounded ByAllAhmad al-Badawi (1)Ahmad al-Tijani (1)Amadou Bamba (1)Baha al-Din Naqshband (1)Haji Bektash Veli (1)Mawlana Khalid (1)Rumi (1)Who may joinAllOpen to All Genders (41)Kind of orderAllSufi Orders (61)PolityAllCentralised Corporate Polity (1)Decentralised Polity (2)Silsila (The Chain of Spiritual Descent) (56)Originated InAllAlgeria (1)China (2)Egypt (2)India (2)Indonesia (1)Iran (3)Iraq (1)Morocco (7)Senegal (2)Somalia (1)Sudan (1)Turkey (5)Turkmenistan (1)United States (1)Yemen (1)Origin Period Start YearAll1127 (1)1145 (1)1181 (1)1190 (1)1200 (1)1209 (1)1244 (1)1276 (1)1301 (1)1318 (1)1367 (1)1377 (1)1400 (2)1434 (1)1466 (1)1500 (2)1600 (1)1640 (1)1660 (1)1704 (1)1750 (2)1774 (1)1782 (1)1790 (1)1799 (1)1811 (1)1817 (1)1848 (1)1878 (1)1883 (2)1887 (1)1909 (1)1910 (1)1935 (1)1968 (1)1971 (2)1974 (1)1976 (1)1980 (1)1983 (1)1993 (1)Parent Order / Branch OfAllBektashi Order (1)Chishti Order (2)Inayati Order (1)Jerrahi Order (1)Kubrawiya (2)Naqshbandi Order (8)Qadiriyya Order (4)Rifa'i Order (1)Shattariyya (1)Tijaniyyah (1)Part OfAllNaqshbandi Order (1)TraditionAllNizari Ismailism (1)Sufism (60)Doctrinal PositionAllAffiliation to one order only, forfeited by taking a second (1)An interior path (tasawwuf) pursued within the schools of law (69)Belief may be concealed where disclosure would bring harm (taqiyya) (1)Listening, music or movement as a means of remembrance (2)Music and movement refused as a means of remembrance (1)Remembrance of God practised aloud and in company (16)Remembrance of God practised inwardly and in silence (8)ApostolateAllCharitable and Medical Work (1)Spiritual Direction and Dhikr (63)Teaching and Education (2)Liturgical LanguageAllClassical Arabic (64)Vernacular Language (8)Ordination PracticeAllAuthority conferred by initiation rather than by ordination (68)Scholarly Ijazah Authorization (1)Rooted InAllSufism (52)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 19Qadri ShattariLiving tradition, practised todayQalandariyyaLiving tradition, practised todayQudusiyahLiving tradition, practised todayRahmaniyyaLiving tradition, practised todayRifa'i OrderLiving tradition, practised todayRishi OrderLiving tradition, practised todaySa'diyyaLiving tradition, practised todaySafavid orderLiving tradition, practised todaySaifiaLiving tradition, practised todaySalihiyyaLiving tradition, practised todaySatpanthLiving tradition, practised todayShattariyyaLiving tradition, practised todaySilsila AzeemiyyaLiving tradition, practised todaySufi Ruhaniat InternationalLiving tradition, practised todaySunbuliyeLiving tradition, practised todayTijaniyyahLiving tradition, practised todayUşşakiLiving tradition, practised todayZahabiyaLiving tradition, practised todayZahidiyyaLiving tradition, practised todayShowing 51 to 69 of 69, page 2 of 2.← Previous12Sources1.
