The designation of the Naqshbandi Golden Chain has changed from century to century. 

From the time of Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (r) to the time of Bayazid al-Bistami (r) it was called as-Siddiqiyya. 

From the time of Bayazid to the time of 

Sayyidina Abdul Khaliq al-Ghujdawani it was called at-Tayfuriyya. 

From the time of Sayyidina ‘Abdul Khaliq al-Ghujdawan to the time of Shah Naqshband 

it was called the Khwajaganiyya. 

From the time of Shah Naqshband through the time of Sayyidina Ubaidullah al-Ahrar and Sayyidina Ahmad Faruqi, it was called Naqshbandiyya. 

Naqshbandiyya means to “tie the Naqsh very well.” The Naqsh is the perfect engraving of Allah’s Name in the heart of the murid.

 From the time of Sayyidina Ahmad al-Faruqi to the time of Shaikh Khalid al-Baghdadi it was 

called Naqshbandi-Mujaddidiyya.
