Yusuf Hamadani
Yūsuf Hamadani (d. 1140 ) from Hamadan is the first of a group of central Asian Sufis that simply as Chwadschagan (master) of the Nakschibendī-order are known. Chawadscha Abdul Chaliq Ghudschduwani (d. 1179) and Ahmed Yesevi (d. 1166) were among his students. Baha-ud-Din Naqschband revived the Chwajagan Way in the 14th century. It was his revival of the Khwajagan Way, which was later called the Nakshibendi .
Hamadani's writing Rutbat al-hayat (رتبة الحيات / Rutbat al-ḥayāt) is considered to be influenced by Abu Ali Farmadī , his predecessor in the various lineages of individual Nakschibendī orders.
