The Nimatullahi order (also spelled "Nimatollahi") is a Sufi religious order. It is named after its 14th century founder Nur al-Din Nimatallah Wali, known as Shah Nimatullah, who settled in and is buried in Mahan, Kerman Province, Iran. Originally a Sunni order, the group became Shia in the 16th century. Most members today reside in Iran.
