The Tariqa Burhāniyya (Arabic: الطريقة البرهانية الدسوقية الشاذلية Ṭarīqa al burhāniyya al disūqiyyah al shādhliyyah; also written al-Burhāniyya or Burhāniyyah) or Desuqiyya is a Sufi order founded by Sayyidi Abul Hasan ash-Shadhuli and Sayyidi Ibrahim al Disuqi in the 13th century. The order's full name is Tariqa Burhaniya Disuqiya Shadhuliya, referring to its founders. Burhan-uddin is a surname of Sayyidi Ibrahim al Disuqi and means "evidence of religion". The order has a registered charity in the UK, Tariqa Burhaniya D'suqiyya Shazuliyya (tbds); Registered Charity Number: 1041647.[1]

Desouki, also known as the Burhani order, was founded by Ibrahim El-Desouki, whose resting place in the Nile delta is a major place of pilgrimage for Sufi Muslims from all over Egypt.[2] Originally from Egypt, there is a significant population of members in Khartoum.[3] During the Ottoman times, this order, along with the other native Egyptian Sufi order, the Badawiyyah order, had several tekkes in Istanbul. These tekkes, along with all others, were closed when Turkey became a republic.

Origins

The order was renewed by the Sudanese Sheikh Mawlana Mohamed Osman Abdu al Burhani (1902–1983). After his death the leadership of the order passed to his son Sheikh Ibrahim as Sheikh Mohamed Osman Abdu al-Burhani. During the leadership of Sheikh Ibrahim the order was spreading also in other parts of the Arab Middle East, especially in Europe, North America ( United States, Canada) and South Asia (Pakistan, India).

Since 2003 the order is under the guidance of his grandson Sheikh Mohamed al Sheikh Ibrahim al Sheikh Mohamed Osman Abdu al-Burhani. The domicile of the European center of the order is located on the edge of the Lüneburg Heath in Germany.
