Shaykh Muhammad Imdad Hussain Pirzada is a shaykh in the Chishti Nizami Sufi Order given ijaza by his shaykh, spiritual mentor and teacher, Diya’ al-Ummat, Justice Shaykh Muhammad Karam Shah al-Azhari Radi Allahu anhu. He was also granted ijaza in the Qadiri Sufi Order and was awarded with the direct ijaza in the Chishti Sufi Order coming from the astana of Shaykh Mu’in ad-Din of Ajmayr. He has also been given the ijaza of narrating the prominent Dala’il al-Khayrat of Imam al-Jazuli Radi Allahu anhu a treatise recited in all Sufi orders. Dr. Ahmad ‘Umar Hashim of the Al-Azhar University awarded him with the sanad of hadith narration. Shaykh Muhammad Imdad Hussain Pirzada comes from a very religious and spiritual family. His father, Shaykh Gul Muhammad al-Qadiri, and his elder brother, Shaykh Muhammad Karam Husayn al-Qadiri, were both shuyukh in the Qadiri Sufi Order.
Shaykh Muhammad Imdad Hussain Pirzada has not only continuously served the Muslims in terms of setting up educational establishments in the form of schools and disseminating knowledge in the form of his several literary masterpieces, he has also continuously been preoccupied in serving humanity in general in terms of humanitarian aid to all the needy worldwide. The passion of helping the needy led him to establish Muslim Charity; a charity completely run by volunteers with no paid workers in the United Kingdom. His determination led him to travel to Banda Aceh, Indonesia, following the Asian Tsunami where he spent the days of Eid al-Adha helping and providing a shoulder of support to the victims of the disaster and he spent the nights sleeping on the floor of shattered mosques as everything in Banda Aceh was wiped out. He has established the Gyne Hospital Jhang in Pakistan, which went from an idea in his mind to a serving centre of remarkable repute within a short span of twenty months. The success of this hospital has led him to begin his second major project, Gyne Hospital Faisalabad, which will be completed close to the month of Ramadan 2006. Following the recent Asian earthquake, he with the support of Shaykh Muhammad Amin al-Hasanat Shah has provided over one hundred and fifteen steel-structured new homes for the homeless in Kashmir. Sixty of these new homes have been built in one village that has now been officially renamed ‘Al-Karam Village’ and was opened by the former president of Kashmir, Sardar Abdul Qayyum.
Despite his success in all these areas of service to humanity, his main aim and focus remains at Jamia Al-Karam of educating the Muslim youth and producing Islamic scholars. At the present moment, over a hundred of his students have graduated from Jamia Al-Karam and are serving the Muslims throughout the country. His Al-Karam Secondary School has produced a GCSE pass rate of 100% (A*-C grades) in 2005 and has acquired first position in the entire county of Nottinghamshire.
In July 2001, he was awarded the ad-Dir’ul Mumtaz (Shield of Excellence) by the former Chancellor, Dr Ahmad ‘Umar Hashim on behalf of the University of Al-Azhar (Cairo) and was also awarded the Diya’ al-Ummat Award of Excellence by Shaykh Muhammad Amin al-Hasanat Shah on behalf of DMG Bhera (Pakistan). Shaykh Muhammad Imdad Hussain Pirzada remains a modest and humble individual; to whom Allah (most high) has granted much wisdom and knowledge. He is an inspiration and guide to many. May Allah (most high) grant him a long and healthy life and give him more strength to propagate the true message of Islam. Amin.
