=== Selection as sheikh after his father’s death ===
Initially, Sheikh Muhammad al-Kasnazani always recommended Dr. Nahro as his successor to the other disciples and said, "No successor should open a [[Sufi lodge|khanqah]] or appoint a new successor without informing my successor, Sheikh Nahro." In 2005, in front of a gathering of followers, he officially declared Dr. Nahro as his successor, saying, "Inshallah, Sheikh Nahro is the Sheikh of the future, and he is your Sheikh, brother, and servant, and the servant of the order."  and He mentioned this in one of his lectures.In 2008, Sheikh Muhammad al-Kasnazani formally gave Dr. Nahro full authority over the main [[Sufi lodge|khanqah]] in [[Sulaymaniyah]], stating that any guidance from Dr. Nahro would be as though it came from him, and no one after Sheikh Muhammad al-Kasnazani would represent the order except for Sheikh Nahro. According to their beliefs, the selection of the Sheikh is made by the command of [[Prophet Muhammad]] (PBUH). In 2019, Sheikh Muhammad al-Kasnazani traveled to the [[United States]], and in 2020, his health gradually deteriorated until his passing on July 4, 2020.<ref>[https://www.thebaghdadpost.com/ar/Story/197979/%D9%88%D9%81%D8%A7%D8%A9-%D9%85%D8%B1%D8%B4%D8%AF-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B7%D8%B1%D9%8A%D9%82%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%AF%D8%B1%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%B3%D9%86%D8%B2%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D9%81%D9%8A-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%82-%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85 "وفاة شيخ الطريقة العلية القادرية الكسنزانية"]</ref> After his death, Sheikh Nahro assumed the leadership of the order.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Alyoum |first=Alsoufia |date=2020-07-17 |title="بروفايل"{{!}}.. مرشد الطريقة الكسنزانية الجديد بالعراق : سياسي ورجل أعمال |url=https://www.alsoufiaalyoum.com/%D8%A8%D8%B1%D9%88%D9%81%D8%A7%D9%8A%D9%84-%D9%85%D8%B1%D8%B4%D8%AF-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B7%D8%B1%D9%8A%D9%82%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%B3%D9%86%D8%B2%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AC/ |access-date=2025-04-10 |website=الصوفية اليوم |language=ar}}</ref>
