- Source: Qayyum (Sufism)
A Qayyum (pronounced Qayyoom, Arabic/Urdu: قیوم) is a special spiritual position in Sufism, especially in the Naqshbandi tradition. The term was first coined by Ahmed Sirhindi, who was the first qayyum. According to him, a qayyum is a dignitary upon whom the whole order of existence depends. The word is derived from Al-Qayyum, a name of God in Islam that has the same meaning. According to the doctrine, only one qayyum is alive at any particular time.
The first four qayyums
The first qayyum was Ahmed Sirhindi (d. 1624). The second was Ahmed Sirhindi third son, Khwaja Muhammad Masum Faruqi (d.1668), who was followed by his son Khwaja Muhammad Hujjatullah Naqshband (d. 1703). The fourth qayyum was Khwaja Muhammad Zubair (d. 1740), the grandson of Khwaja Naqshband.
