		In parts of the northern Caucasus, the tariqa exists in a more or less traditional form, which is now relating actively to the post-Soviet weakening of the central state and general economic and political instability.
		The tariqa is organised in the form of local or regional centres, each led by a khalifa, or deputy to the Shaykh.
		Tariqas today are closely associated with the revival of local ethnic politics in a region where the centralised state has become weak and where alternative trends of Islam are being actively propagated.

		The present Master of Tariqa Casnazaniyyah, Shaikh Muhammad al- Casnazani, is a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad.

	The Nine Clarifications About Muslim Sufism And Following A Spiritual Order
		Tariqa is, in essence, the name of a discipline or technique to practice the Shari‘a in a better way, and the Shari’a has numerous different degrees of understanding and practice according to the different levels of people.
		If tariqa is taken as the aim or end in itself, then the commandments of the Shari‘a and principles of the Sunna are reduced to mere ceremonies for outward performance, with the heart turned directly toward tariqa.
		By setting, through tariqa, the heart to work, which is the center and spring of the human factory, and thereby directing the other human faculties to their creative functions, one can attain true humanity.

	Pilars of Tidjaniyah Tariqa
		It is a tariqa of knowledge, cognition, deed, and devotion.
		Thus, the way (tariqa) of thankfulness is worshipping of Allah with devout servitude, quitting oneself of all vain inner desires, and admitting one's helplessness and incapability in fulfilling the rights of His Lordship with settlement of this a state constantly in the heart.
		Therefore, the walk in the tariqa of gratefulness is the walk of hearts (training), by looking into the conditions of the heart and into that which reforms it, and that which spoils it, in abidance by the holy Shari'a and the honorable Sunnah and its etiquettes, moderately, without excessiveness or negligence.

		Similarly, Schuon's tariqa is probably not alone in having (reportedly) relaxed the Sharia somewhat for its adherents, at least in principle.

		The Naqshabandi tariqa (Sufi order), characterized by its silent dhikr or means of meditation, faces a particular challenge today; its practitioners worry that the noise of modern life threatens to drown it out.
		According to Naqshabandi tradition, the 'spiritual inheritance' of the silsila is passed from one sheikh to another when the tariqa leader secretly selects his successor as he approaches his deathbed.
		It is interesting here that, although the Naqshabandi tariqa is Sunni, it also carries elements of Shiism: the threatened perspective of a minority, even to the extent that it may be considered legitimate to hide one's beliefs, or the investment of continuing prophecy in the line of saints, for example.

		Tariqa or Sufism is the last stage of worship, which is the position of seeking righteousness, or IHSAN.
		While any of these tariqas will guide one to the Prophet's (SAWS) path, the principles of all of them are combined in the Tariqa of Tijaniyya, in the same way that all principles of the past religions (of the Book) are combined in Islam.
		The reason for this is that Tijaniyya, being the fountain-head of all the tariqas, is their summation and therefore nothing is in any other tariqa that is not found within the Tijaniyya.

		To join a tariqa as murid (seeker) entails taking an oath from a living shaykh, who has likewise taken an oath from his shaykh; the silsila connects the novice to the (often eponymous) founder of the tariqa, and ultimately to the Prophet.
		Typically the munshid has taken the Sufi oath in at least one tariqa; he may occasionally be the shaykh of the tariqa for which he performs.
		Occasionally it is published for local use by Sufis, usually within the tariqa, where its attribution may be suppressed, or assimilated to the greater saint perceived as supplying its inspiration.
