Insha Allah soon I will post an audio clip by shaykh Abdal Aziz Ahmed (Fredeickes) about sayyidina Faqih al-Muqaddam.
For now I know that Shaykh Abdal-Qadir stated that the qutbiyyah was going to the maghrib and passed the khirqah to Ghawth abu-madyan. Near Ghawth Abu Madyan's death he stated the qutbiyyah was passing to yemen, and sent 2 of his students to grant the khirqah to the shaykh of the yemenis. This was al-faqih al-muqaddam.
