Decree No. 1 of the Sheikhdom of the Siddiqi Sijjada Bakria for the Year 2017 AD
A Historical First: International Assembly for the Progeny of Abu Bakr As-Siddiq Formed
In an event unprecedented in the long history of Arabs and Muslims, an international assembly for the descendants of Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) has been formed, uniting participants from across the Islamic world—from Pakistan and India in the East to Mauritania in the West.
The move comes in response to widespread demand amongst the descendants, reflecting their great interest and desire to unify all descendants of Abu Bakr As-Siddiq around a rich historical heritage mirrored in their noble ancestors of Bakri lineage. The assembly is intended to create a unique sense of solidarity and kinship in the homelands of descendants so that their lineage may be preserved and safeguarded.
His Eminence the Sheikh of the Siddiqi Sijjada Bakria, Sheikh Ahmed Bin Mohamed Kublai Al-Bakri, a descendant of the As-Siddiq family, has graciously issued a decree to form an international committee of trustees of Bakri lineage from various countries that gathers under its umbrella an elite set of participants, including dignitaries, the heads of Bakri tribes, and Honorable Judges of Shariah Law, as well as university presidents, scholars, and researchers of Bakri lineage.
