This post is aimed at completely refuting the claim online by Wahabbi minded Groups and fake Sunni Ahale Sunnath Wal Jamath Groups like CIFIA (Correct Islamic Faith International Association), Hyderabad about Shaykh Hisham Kabbani taking dhikr from Gohar Shahi, claiming to be the Imam Mahdi (AS) which is a blatant and a baseless lie attributed to a a world-renowned author and Sufi scholar of the Naqshbandi Tarriqqa.
E-Shaykh.com totally refutes this claim as follows:
"Wa `alaykum salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, wa ‘s-salamu `ala man ‘ttabi`a ‘l-huda
laa hawla wa laa quwatta illa billahi ‘l-`Aliyyi ‘l-`Azheem
There is no might and now power except with Allah they Exalted the Magnificent.
Whoever claimed that Shaykh Hisham came to take dhikr from Gohar Shahi, in fact lied. Gohar Shahi requested to visit Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani at his home in California. Shaykh Hisham did not know this person, and in the tradition of Muslim hospitality, invited him into his home and showed him the respect due to someone who was outwardly a pious scholar and tariqah shaykh. Later false and nonsensical claims that Shaykh Hisham took baya` or took awrad from him are invalid, rather Shaykh Hisham’s impeccable adab is, like Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, to accept wa`zh and even reprimand from anyone, to recite dhikr with anyone and to act like a common person.
As for claims to be Mahdi, if Gohar Shahi had said so to Shaykh Hisham, he would have refuted him there and then. Instead he posed as a Qadiri shaykh. Since Mahdi’s appearance, birth and lineage are well known from many authentic hadith, it is clear that this man is not Mahdi and should withdraw his false claims.
I bear witness to the utter falsehood of these claims as I was present at this meeting."

Another point noteworthy of mention is that Sheikh Nazim (QS) or any of his Khalifas have never declared that Mahdi (Alaihis salam) has arrived, while Gohar Shahi claimed himself to be Mahdi and met with a mysterious death later!
Therefore, please be aware and wary of Pseudo-Sunni Ahale Sunnath Wal Jamath Groups like CIFIA (Correct Islamic Faith International Association), Hyderabad and Wahabbi minded Groups injecting poison into the minds of innocent Ahale Sunnath Wal Jamath (ASWJ) Muslims and Sufi Tarriqa Students globally and creating Fitna (Division) amongst the Ahale Sunnath Wal Jamath (ASWJ) Muslims!
