Hazrat Maulana Allah Bakhsh Abbasi Ghaffari Naqshbandi Mujaddidi, popularly known with his title Sohna Saeen (1910-1983), was a renowned Sufi master of the Naqshbandi order in Sindh during the 20th century. He established many khanqahs, madrasahs and Islamic organizations for the revival of moral values and spirituality, with emphasis on the teachings of Naqshbandi masters. His father died while h
e was only five months old, thus his pious and saintly mother took the responsibility of his upbringing and education. For spiritual guidance, he first received initiation in Naqshbandi tariqa from Hazrat Khwaja Pir Fazal Ali Qureshi, the great Indian Sufi master who is known for his steadfastness on Sunnah and many other miracles. The shaykh soon passed away, and he then attached himself to one of the shaykhs great deputies, Hazrat Khwaja Abdul Ghaffar Fazali Naqshbandi, who later made him his chief khalifa and spiritual successor. After the demise of his shaykh in 1964, he worked day and night for the revival of lost values in the society and reformation of Muslims and spreading the spirituality of the Naqshbandi Sufi path. He established three khanqahs and many other centers, many madrasahs, and Islamic organizations which are still working today on his mission. He passed away on 12th December 1983 (6 Rabi al-Awwal 1404 AH) at the time of Tahajjud prayers (before dawn). He was buried in his last established khanqah Allahabad, located close to Kandiaro, Sindh. All his deputies unanimously appointed his son Khwaja Muhammad Tahir Bakhshi Naqshbandi as his spiritual successor.
