Unverifiable, fails WP:V. At best, this is a transcription problem, and a different rendering of the name solves this. But it seems unlikely that this is the main problem. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hassal Sharif was the discussion for another, related article by the same author. He is also the author of the sources for the article we are discussing here (the sources which were available in the version here. Searching for reliable sources gives no Google Books results, and no regular Google hits independent from Wikipedia or the author of this article. Fram (talk) 06:55, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - See: Template:Sufism and Tariqa. "A tariqa (Arabic: طريقة‎ ṭarīqah, pl. طرق ṭuruq; Persian: طريقت‎ tariqat; Turkish: tarikat; alternate spelling: tariqah, meaning "way, path, method") is an Islamic religious order. In Sufism one starts with Islamic law, the exoteric or mundane practice of Islam and then is initiated onto the mystical path of a tariqa."
  

And, "Tarīqas have silsilas (Arabic: سلسلة‎) "chain, lineage of sheikhs". Almost all orders except the Naqshbandi order claim a silsila that leads back to Muhammad through ‘Alī. (The Naqshbandi Silsila goes back to Abu Bakr the first Caliph of Sunni Islam and then Prophet Muhammad.) Many silsilas contain the names of Shī‘ah Imams."
Per this article, "Hussainia Jalalia is an Islamic Sufi order or Tariqa, named after Syed Jalaluddin Surkh-Posh Bukhari. Hussainia Jalalia is the real name of Jalali sufi order. It is the oldest silsila Sufi order in world." It also claims that Jalaluddin Surkh-Posh Bukhari founded this order.
And per the template and tariga, their founder fails lineage and this article becomes promotional and fails citation, biographic and encyclopedic minimals for Wikipedia. Jrcrin001 (talk) 07:25, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
