Neo Sufism & Traditionalist Reaction

Many among the Ulema are increasingly unhappy with the our ruler. Among pious Muslims, our inclusion of heathens in high offices as well as the adoption of heathen customs and traditions, is viewed with scorn. The intrusions of the state on interpretation of law and other traditional domains of the Ulema have also not earned the state any friends among the jurists of the realm.\nCharismatic Shiekhs of the Sufi Naqshbandi order have begun to agitate against the state what they consider a wrongful, and in some cases sinful implementation of Islamic law in our realm.
