Summary/Abstract: The sufi order kubrawiyya belongs to the group of great sufi orders rich with spiritual tradition and huge literary spectrum, wich represents the autentic sufi teachings from the early period. The kubrawiyya order, just like qadiriyyah, rifa’iyyah, naqshibandiyyah and others, represents the teachings of the core truth, yearning to reach the complete witnessing (mushahada) and closeness (qurb) with the almighty through serving and submitting to him. In all the postulates of this article, the kubrawiyya teachings are founded on the shariyya arguments, which proves it’s legitimacy in a unique way, as well as validation of teoretical and practical level, that have clearly been underlined in the works of Najm al-Din and his spiritual followers. The visible harmony of the rules of the order and the sources of islam leads to the fact that the members of the kubrawiyya order, by practising the clearly determined postulates of the order, together with the others,take part in following and strengthening of the essence of islam itself, or it’s fundamental substance.
