The Rise
of
Wahhabi Fitnah in the
Indian subcontinent:
Which began after
(1239 AH - 1823 CE)
-
Part1
When
and why did the disagreement begin?
Brief
introduction:
Al
Muhaddith Shah Abdul Aziz Dehlavi (RA) (b.1745- d.1823 CE)
Shah
Abdul Aziz (RA) was
the eldest son of
Hazrat
Shah Waliullah Dehlavi (RA)
(b.1703
–d.1762CE)
Shah
Abdul Aziz was only 17 years old when Shah
Waliullah (ra) died.
He took over as the teacher of Hadith
in place of his father, and later became famous as the Muhaddith of
Delhi (just like his father) and one of India's greatest Islamic
scholars.
Shah Waliullah Dehlavi (rah) had four children, all of whom went on to
become famous Islamic scholars of their time. His
children were:
Shah Abdul Aziz (rah),
Shah Rafiuddin(rah),
Shah Abdul
Qadir(rah) and
Shah Abdul Gani (rah).
Note:
The
three brothers were also students of Shah Abdul
Aziz (rah)

The Rise of Fitnah
Indian sub-continent
-
Shah
Abdul Gani (rah)
had a son, who
he named:
Mu-hammed
Ismail Dehlavi
This child Ismail when
he became a man wrote a book called:
---
Taqwiyat-ul-Imaan
Published 1825CE
for the first time!
*Note: Igniting the fire
of sectarianism in India.
His
Teacher:
Sayyid
Ahmad of Balakot
(b.1786CE
– d.1831CE)
Is not considered to
be a true student being that he had deviated away from
what Shah Abdul Aziz and Shah
Waliullah had taught and Shah Abdul Aziz himself, as narrated in the book:
had expressed disapproval upon the Wahhabi creed of Isma`il Dehlvi and his teacher, Sayyid Ahmad of Balakot. (more info Here)
Point Being!
The
main source of disunity and fitna in
the Indian sub-continent
was
by this evil man:
Ismael
Dehlvi
(died
1246 AH-1831CE)
_%2C_Balakot.jpg)
He translated 'Kitab at- Tawheed' into Urdu and called it:
'Taqviyatul
Imaan'
(The
Strengthening of Faith).
His
Doctrines and Teachings
In
Brief:
Mu-hammad
Qasim Nanotvi (died 1297 AH-1879 C.E. ) founded
a school at Deoband, a town in the Sahanapur
district of India.
Together with Rashid
Ahmad Gangohi (died 1323 AH-1905 C.E.),
Mu-hammad
Qasim Nanotvi's fellow student and Wahhabi
convert, he taught and spread
Mu-hammad
Ismael Dehlvi's Wahhabi doctrines and teachings to
the students at his school at Deoband.
The
Deobandi doctrine was later
progressed by
Ashraf
Ali Thanvi (d.1362 AH-1943 C.E)
Mu-hammad
Ismael Dehlvi is thus recognised as
the father of Wahhabism in
the Indian subcontinent and the main
cause of fitna and dis
unity amongs
the Sunni Muslims.

Make
a Note of the following:
Mawlānā
Thanaullah Amratsari, editor of the periodical Majallah
Ahle Hadith, said this
in 1973
According
to him, 165 years ago, the Muslim
population of Amritsar, Punjab, followed the same
creed as those that are known today as “Hanafi
Barelwi” and according
to Muhammad Ja’far Thanesri, 200
years ago, there was no sign of any Wahhabi or
follower of Shah Isma’il Dihlawi in
the whole of [undivided] Punjab!
Mawlānā
Sayyid Ahmad Raza Bijnori Qasmi writes:
“It
is a shame that due to this book (Taqwiyatul
Iman)
the Muslims of India who number 200 million, of which 90% are
Hanafis, have been split into
two groups.”
[Anwar-ul-Bari,
page 107. Nashir-ul-Uloom, Bajnur – Maulana Sayyid Ahmad Raza
Bajnuri]

Note: Mawlānā
Fazle Haq and Mawlānā Mahboob Ali
Refuted the
ideas of Shah Isma’il strongly!

Amongst
the students of Shah Abdul Aziz were:
Mawlana
Sayyid Ale Rasul Mehrawi, who was the grand-teacher of
the famous Indian scholar,
Note:
Imam Ahmad Raza Khan
(b.1272 AH /b.1856CE) (d.1340 A.H / d.1921CE)
as
well
Mawlana Mahboob Ali Dehlawi, Mufti Sadruddin Aazurdah,
