Review 2
The author is appreciated for providing the wealth of information regarding the uncovered and very significant Sufi order of Bihar. But to make it citable or a linkable asset, it is advised to them to portray the effect of the Firdausi Sufi order on the socio-economic development of Bihar along with its political development. In the current form, the article is providing only about the origin of the order and the couple of Sufi saints; the information regarding the one or more Sufis is not unique and is not providing enough value. It is suggested to portray the uniqueness of Firdausi Silsila and its unique teachings, which make it distinguishable from other Sufi orders. It will be very good if the author can provide brief info on some unique rusumat of the orders, if there are any. Thanks so much for this opportunity to review this manuscript. Wishing all the very best to the author and this platform for their future endeavors. Sufi (talk) 16:42, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- This Sufi Silsila is one of the most followed in Bihar. In my speeches on various occasions, I have highlighted how, during the time of Shaikh Sharfuddin Ahmad Yahya Maneri, Bihar became the Sufi capital of India. Thank you for reviewing my work, sir. I have incorporated all the available information. I also visited Badi Dargah in Bihar Sharif, at the shrine of Shaikh Sharfuddin Ahmad Yahya Maneri, to gather insights. However, I found that there are no unique rusumaat (rituals) specific to this Silsila, apart from the annual Urs celebration. Additionally, my research does not focus on karaamat (miracles), as contemporary narratives often vary, and most books on Sufism in Bihar do not provide detailed accounts of the miracles of Sufi saints. I request you to publish it. QuadriSyedSahab (talk) 17:52, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

Shaikh Nizamuddin Kubra or Najmuddin Kubra? I think the article is going to be a good read but the biographical particulars must be verified carefully. Sufi (talk) 09:18, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Sufi I fixed that, the name of Sufi saint was Hazrat Najmuddin Kubra also written as Najm al-Din Kubra. I verified the biographies, thanks for pointing this out. Thankyou. QuadriSyedSahab (talk) 09:36, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
