"Hawa he Gotand wa Tez lekin Chiraagh Apna Jala Raha he, Wo Marde Durwesh jis ko Haq ne diye the Andaze Khusrawana"
The sign of a true Mo'min is that he never submits himself before an enemy. In the worst of circumstances a Mo'min announces that which is the truth. Sayyiduna Rasulullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said, "To speak the truth before a tyrant King is a great Jihad." So imagine the excellence of a person who always spoke the truth at all times, a person who always raised the flag of truth and honesty, and a person who never left the path of truth in his entire life!
Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind, Maulana Mustapha Raza Khan (radi Allahu anhu) was one such person. He is one of the greatest leaders of the Sunnis. His boldness and fearlessness is difficult to explain.
His entire life was spent speaking against Deobandis, Wahabis and all the other misleading sects, whether it was against the West, Qadianism, or Najdism he always challenged them right till the very end. He always propagated the true Deen and the Path of the Ahle Sunnah Wa Jamaah. With his Fatawas, he helped protect the Imaan of not only the Muslims in India and Pakistan, but of Muslims throughout the world.
He attacked the enemies of Islam through his writings, sayings, actions, etc. He did everything in his capacity to challenge the enemies of Islam. No person in his presence could say or do anything against Shariah. No person could speak against that which was the truth.
It is stated by one of Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu's) Khaadim's, who accompanied him on a journey by train, that there were some people in the train who were consuming alcohol. When Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu) saw them, he reprimanded them and told them to desist from such a Haraam act. They did not listen to his advise so he scolded the leader of the group who was a young and well-built person. He gave the young person a hard slap, which caused the bottle of alcohol to fall far from his hand. The Khaadim expected the person to retaliate, but who would have the nerve to retaliate against this Lion of Islam! They became afraid and sat down quietly.
Later some of them came up to Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu) and begged for forgiveness for their shameful behavior.

LOVE FOR THE Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) :
Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind, Maulana Mustafa Raza Khan (radi Allahu anhu) was drowned in the love for the Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam), Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). Everything he did was for the pleasure of Almighty Allah and Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). All that he had gained was due to the intense love which he possessed for the Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).
His extreme and intense love for the Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) can be understood from the fact that during the latter stages of his life, even though he was very ill, he would sit for hours with great respect in the Naath Mehfils and would shed tears in his love for Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).
Each year with great love, he would celebrate the Meelad-un-Nabi (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). The programme used to begin on the eve of the 12th of Rabi-ul-Awwal and used to continue till the next day just before lunch. The invitation was open to all Muslims and they all used to be fed.

Subhanallah ! Very good post BUT need some more background on original post, it only has brief history.!
Just like Sayyiduna A'la Hazrat - the noor of Barelwi shines over the ummah.

Salam brother Rizvi !
I was in two minds about posting all of the article, but felt it would have been too much text for some people and maybe put them off from reading it.
Small summaries have better impact and response dont you think ?

IN THE EYES OF THE ULEMA
Hazrat Muhaddith-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu) said: "IN THIS TIME, THAT PERSONALITY WHOSE TAQWA (PIETY) IS MORE THAN HIS FATAWA, IS NONE OTHER THAN THE SON OF SAYYIDI A'LA HAZRAT (RADI ALLAHU ANHU) WHOSE BEAUTIFUL NAME IS MUSTAPHA RAZA AND THIS NAME COMES ON MY TONGUE WITHOUT PROBLEM AND IT ALLOWS ME TO GAIN GREAT BLESSINGS." Once Hazrat Muhaddith-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhu) wrote the following words on the Fatawa of Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu): "THIS IS THE SAYING OF SUCH AN AALIM WHOM TO FOLLOW IS COMPULSORY "
Huzoor Sayyidi Hafiz-e-Millat (radi Allahu anhu) stated, "A PERSON DOES NOT GET PROPER RESPECT AND ACCEPTANCE IN HIS OWN TOWN, BUT THE ACCEPTANCE AND RESPECT THAT HUZOOR MUFTI AZAM HAS GAINED IN HIS TOWN CANNOT BE FOUND ANYWHERE ELSE. THIS IS OPEN PROOF OF HIS KARAMAAT AND WILAYAT". He then said, "MUFTI AZAM IS A KING, HE IS A KING". (Which means that he should be respected and treated as a King).
Huzoor Mujjahid-e-Millat (radi Allahu anhu) said, "IN THIS TIME, THE PERSONALITY OF HUZOOR MUFTI AZM HIND (RADI ALLAHU ANHU) IS A UNIQUE ONE, ESPECIALLY IN THE FIELD OF IFTA, BUT ALSO IN HIS DAILY CONVERSATIONS - THE MANNER IN WHICH HE SPOKE AND EXPLAINED CAN BE UNDERSTOOD BY ONLY THE PEOPLE OF KNOWLEDGE."
The "Imam Ghazzali" of his time, Allama Saeed Ahmad Kazmi Shah Sahib (radi Allahu anhu) says, "THE STATUS OF SAYYIDI MUFTI AZAM HIND (RADI ALLAHU ANHU) CAN BE UNDERSTOOD FROM THIS THAT HE IS THE SON AND THE BELOVED OF MUJJADIDE DEEN-O-MILLAT, IMAM AHLE SUNNAT, ASH SHAH IMAM AHMAD RAZA KHAN (RADI ALLAHU ANHU)."
Hazrat Qari Maslihud'deen (radi Allahu anhu) says, "AFTER THE WISAAL OF MY MURSHAD, THE CENTRAL POINT OF MY FOCUS WAS THE PERSONALITY OF HUZOOR MUFTI AZAM HIND (RADI ALLAHU ANHU) AND NOT ONLYWAS HE THE POINT OF MY FOCUS, BUT ALSO THAT OF THE ENTIRE SUNNI POPULATION."

Thats quite amazing truerizvi, most of the great Ulema who have paid tribute to Mufti Azam e Hind are from Kanquah e Ashrafia or have links with them. |

Huzoor Mujjahid-e-Millat - they are called Habir Rehman there is a nice b/w pictire of them in the old photo section. The "Imam Ghazzali" of his time, Allama Saeed Ahmad Kazmi Shah Sahib - they were heavily linked with Muhaddith e Azam. Hazrat Qari Maslihud'deen, dont know ? I only know 3/5 ! Not sure if others were connected ? |

Huzoor Sayyedi Hafiz e Millat, was the president of Jame Ashrafiya in Mubarakpur and was one of Huzoor Shaykh ul Islam's ustadh's. Graduation After studying the science's it was imperative for Hadrat that he completed studying Islamic Philosophy. Therefore, after being chosen as the successor to Hadrat Muhaddith-e-A'zam-e-Hind, RadiAllaho Anho Hadrat returned to Mubarakpur to complete his studies, thus showing the importance Hadrat attached to his continuing education. After spending a further year at Mubarakpur,Hadrat's graduation took
place at the hands of Hafiz e Millat on 10 Shawaal 1382 (Jan 1963).
At the age of twenty-five years, one month and ten days Hadrat had finally completed his further education,spending over ten years at Darul Uloom Ashrafiya. Hadrat's intellect and thirst for further knowledge enabled him to cover all known fields of Islamic Sacred Law and Fiqh (Jurisprudence), science, philosophy, mathematics and all known fields of legal requirements of writing Fatwa's as well as numerous other areas. Hadrat's teachers included, among others : Makhdoom al-Millat Hadrat Muhaddith-e-A'azam-e-Hind Hafiz e Millat Mawlana Shah Abdul Aziz Ashrafi Shams al-Ulema Qazi Shamsuddin Jaonpuri Jalalatul Ilm Hadrat Allama Abdul Mustapha Azmi Jamia Makulat Hadrat Allama Hafiz Abdul Rauf Balyawi Behr al-Ulum Hadrat Allama Mufti Abdul-Mannan Azmi Mufakkir-e-Islam Hadrat Allama Muzaffar Hasan Zafaradibi Sadi e Zama Hadrat Mawlana Sayyad Shams Al-Haq Azmi Ashraf al-Ulema Mawlana Sayyad Hamid Ashraf Ashrafi al-Jilani Shaykh al-Qurra Hadrat Mawlana Qari Muhammad Yahya Azmi source : www.islam786.org/shaykhalislam.htmMore abour Ashrafia University,Mubarakpur at : www.aljamiatulashrafia.org/indexu.html |
