Arrange the following Sufi saints in correct chronological order based on when their respective silsilas were established or gained initial prominence in northern and eastern India, from the earliest to the latest.

  1. 1Khwaja Muinuddin Chishti (Chishti Silsila)
  2. 2Sheikh Bahauddin Zakariya (Suhrawardi Silsila)
  3. 3Sheikh Sharfuddin Yahya Maneri (Firdausi Silsila)
  4. 4Khwaja Baqi Billah (Naqshbandi Silsila)

Cevap

The correct chronological sequence from earliest to latest is: Khwaja Muinuddin Chishti (Chishti Silsila), followed by Sheikh Bahauddin Zakariya (Suhrawardi Silsila), then Sheikh Sharfuddin Yahya Maneri (Firdausi Silsila), and finally Khwaja Baqi Billah (Naqshbandi Silsila).
The correct sequence begins with Khwaja Muinuddin Chishti in the late 12th century (c. 1192 CE), followed by Sheikh Bahauddin Zakariya who founded the Suhrawardi center at Multan in the early 13th century. Sheikh Sharfuddin Yahya Maneri established the Firdausi branch in Bihar in the 14th century, while Khwaja Baqi Billah brought the Naqshbandi silsila to Delhi in the late 16th century.
