Abstract: This article explores the impact of the management of the Naqshabandiyyah Baha’iyyah Mujaddidiyyah Khalidiyyah Dziya’iyyah Sufi Practice Centre (NSPC) in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia, focusing on its role in strengthening the institutionalization of Tarekat Tasawuf (Islamic spirituality) in the modern era. Employing a fully qualitative and document based methodology, the study analyzes historical documents, legal enactments, academic writings, and official publications to trace the development and influence of the Tarekat Naqshabandiyyah in the state. The findings indicate that effective and strategic management, combined with spiritual leadership, structured training, and community engagement, has transformed the center into a dynamic institution that integrates spiritual practices with educational, social, and intellectual contributions. Key initiatives include the establishment of leadership and research institutes, active publication efforts, inter-agency collaborations, and the formalization of spiritual practices through state recognition. The study concludes that NSPC not only strengthens Sufi identity and legitimacy within the framework of Malaysian religious governance but also demonstrates a viable model for conflict management and institutional resilience in contemporary Islamic contexts. This study highlights the relevance of structured Sufi institutions in contributing to holistic religious development, countering stereotypes, and fostering harmony in plural societies.
