The Mujaddid of the
Fifteenth Century
Mohammad Feroz Khan*
Mujaddid
means reformer, reviver and protector from all evil deeds. In every century at
the beginning, Allah Subhanahu Ta’la sends mujaddid for the nation for the sake
of His devotee to protect them from all kinds of evils and superstitions. There
are many mujaddid-e Ahle Sunnat who took important contribution on Islam by
performing or reforming the quiet sunnah with the help of the Quran, Sunnah,
Ijma, Kias etc. to remove from the society all kinds of bad influences and
revive the Sunnat-e Rassol Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam. In this regards the
passage will describe about the contribution of the mujaddid of fifteenth
century.
In
Hadith Sharif Rasool-e pak Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam says that in every
century Allah Subhanahu Ta’la sends a mujaddid to reform the sunnat-e Rasool
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam which is almost lifeless. He appears as a Mujaddid
and a Gawse Jaman at a time who creates new activities for the welfare of Deen
and Islam. He will revive the Deen through reformation.
Sayyiduna
Abu-Hurayrah Radi ALLAHu Anho narrates that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah Sallallaho
Alaihi wa Sallam said:
ان الله تعالى يبعث لهذه الامة على رأس كلّ مائة
سنة من يجدد لها دينها
Verily Allah will
send at the beginning of every century such a person for this Ummah who will
revive and restore their religion (Deen).
If
we analyze the life of Hazratul Allama Rahnuma-e Shariat wa Tariqat Hadi-e Deen
wa Millat Awlad-e Rasool Murshid-e Barhaque Alhaj Shahsufi Syed Muhammad Tayyab
Shah Rahmatuallahi Alaihi, we will realize and rocognise that Huzur Qibla is
the mujaddid of the fifteenth century without any doubt. He was simultaneously
a Gawse Jaman and a Mujaddid as a beloved vicegerent of Allah. Hazratul
Allama Alhaj Shahsufi Syed Muhammad
Tayyab Shah Rahmatuallahi Alaihi was born on 1336 Hizri. From childhood there
was some signs in Huzur Qibla that Huzur Qibla was the beloved of Allah
Subhanahu Ta’la. Huzur Qibla was the great model of Huzur Karim Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam. He was one of the greatest representatives of Shariat and Tariqat.
In
practising Tariqat he was the follower of Quaderia Tariqa. Spreading the
Quaderia Tariqa Huzur Qibla took great contribution to raise the greatness and
superiority of this Tariqa. Quaderia Silsila is available not only in Arab
country but also in the Asia Subcontinent by the great activities of Huzur
Qibla Rahmatulla Alaihi. Huzur Qibla was the “Madarjat Awlia” means the
qualities of awlia was appeared from the childhood when Huzur Qibla was in a
tender age. In the divine touch of Huzur Qibla the garden of Shariat has
bloomed and then widen the field of Tariqat. Huzur Qibla was become a worthy
Alim-e Deen by the supervision of Huzur Qibla’s father and Pir-Murshid Hazratul
Allama Hafiz Qari Alhaj Syed Ahmad Shah Sirikoti Rahmatullahi Alaihi. Huzur
Qibla dedicated himself to spread the Dinee knowledge to the pathless and
confounded people. Huzur Qibla was the teacher and Principal of Jamia Rahmania
Islamia Madrasah which was established by Khwaja Abdur Rahman Chowrabi
Rahmatullahi Alaihi. After that he was selected as a ‘Chief Khalifa’ of
“Silsila-e Alia Quaderia” in 1958. Huzur Qibla converted confounded Muslims to
a Sunni-Allah fearing Muslim in Bangladesh, Yangon and many other places where
Huzur Qibla has gone and also spread the Quaderia Silsila by performing Bayat.
Launching
Gawsia Committee Bangladesh: The great foremost work of Huzur Qibla is
establishing Gawsia Committee Bangladesh in 1986. By launching this unpolitical
organization, Huzur Qibla has made a bridge between the people and religious
work. People from all kinds, participating themselves in religious work by
learning shariat and Tariqat. Through Gawsia Committee, people enlighten
themselves with self-purification, salvation and righteousness. Infect Gawsia
Committee is a revolution of social reformation. It is not only active in
Bangladesh but also spreading its branches all over the world. The planning of
organizing Gawsia Committee is 1. by taking Bayat and Sobok from kamil pir and
murshid of silsila-e Alia Quaderia including this school of self-purification.
2. Becoming the member of Gawsia Committee they will take such a training so
that they can become a bright person who free from all kinds of egoism, envy,
allurement and pride. 3. Raising consciousness about the belief of sunniat and
misconception of wrong sect, one will make himself as a perfect leader by
giving necessary fundamental education and training. 4. Performing duties of
sunniat and tariqat specially trustful to the regulation of Murshid-e Barhaque,
madrasah and Anjuman. Through the teaching of fundamental regulation of Gawsia
Committee anyone makes himself Insan-e-Kamil (Perfect Human). So the person who
become the member of Gawsia Committee, we do not expect from him/her any evil
deed. It is the great power of Awlia-e Keram who saves his follower from all
kinds of wrongdoing and inhuman acts. By this way, Huzur Qibla has made the
society become peaceful, prevail goodwill and free from jealousy.
Reforming
Jashne Julus-e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam: Reviving or
establishing one sunnah in the society by anyone, he will take the award of
dignity as same as 100 martyrs.
The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said, "For him who holds fast to my sunnah at the time of corruption of my ummah, is the reward of a hundred martyrs" (Bayhaqi).
Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is such kind of sunnah revived by Alhaj Shahsufi Syed Muhammad Tayyab Shah Rahmatuallahi Alaihi. So we can undoubtedly say that Huzur Qibla is a Mujaddid of this century as well as fifteenth century. Huzur Qibla ordered to Anjuman-e-Rahmania Sunnia Alia to celebrate the Mawlid un Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam or appearance/ arrival day in this earth of Huzur Pak Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam in 1974. The chief khalifa of Huzur Qibla, Alhaj Nur Mohammad Al-Quaderi Rahmatullahi’s presiding, the first Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was held in Chittagong in Bangladesh. After that Huzur Qibla presided the Jashne Julus in 1976. Eventually every year magnificent Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is held everywhere in the country as well as all over the world.
Now Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is the identification of sunniat. There was a period when Anjuman-e-Rahmania Sunnia Alia first started Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, so called different darbars and olamas stand against this sunnah by showing different logic. But Islam wants document. No one proved that Jashne Julus-e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is against sunnah rather they accepted it as a Bidath-e Hasanah. Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam has been held as universally admitted and observed which is the reformation of Huzur Qibla Rahmatullahi Alaihi. It was held from 1976-1986 with the leadership of Huzur Qibla. Now Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is a govt. holiday not only in Bangladesh but also in all Muslim country. Now at this time every sunni mashaek arranges ‘Jashne Julus’ by its own darbar and even they declare that they are the founder of Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. On the other hand, many confounded theorists celebrated ‘Jashne Julus’ which has made this reformation universal. Today ‘Jashne Julus’ is included in Islamic Programme. The significant of ‘Jashne Julus’ is overwhelming. The situation of celebrating Jashne Julus- e Eid-e Miladunnabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was not the same when Huzur Qibla first declared to observe this day maintaining Quran and Sunnah.
Reviving
Tariqa-e Quaderia: Tariqa-e Quaderia originated by Hazrat Abdul Quader
Jilani Rahmatullahi Ta’la Alaihi is the main branch of Islami Spiritual world.
Huzur Allama Alhaj Shahsufi Syed Muhammad Tayyab Shah Rahmatuallahi Alaihi was
the most fortunate chief Khalifa and reformer of this Tariqa. This Tariqa has
regained its life by his hand. The seed which was sown by Hazrat Syed Ahmad
Shah Sirikoti Rahmatullahi Alaihi, that turned into a big banyan tree with
abundance of fruits and flowers by the hands of Huzur Qibla. In Quaderia Tariqa
one of the reformation Huzur Qibla were newly brought in Khatam-e Gawsia
Sharif, Gyaravi Sharif and Baravi Sharif. Established by Huzur Gawse Pak Radi
Allahu Anhu this Khateme Gawsia Sharif and Gyaravi Sharif are being celebrated today home to home, area to
area in day-night. This religious programmes are occupied by the Huzur Qibla’s
Holy Hand. Especially Huzur Qibla added various fascinating audible na’at-e
rasool and Kasida sharif with this Khatam Sharif has made this programme more
attractive.
Contribution
in Deene Education: In spreading of Deen or Islam there is a great
contribution of Huzur Qibla Rahmatullahi Ta’ala Alaihi. Huzur Qibla made a tour
from North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan to Bangladesh only for 1 or 2
weeks in every year. It is not easy to say that within a short period of time
Huzur Qibla established so many Madrasahs and Khaneka Sharif in this country.
Today in Bangladesh influenced by Huzur Qibla there are almost 100 madrasahs
running on with well restrained. From these madrasahs every year thousands of
Alim-e deen (Taleeb-e Elam) is spreading in all sectors in all over the country
as well as throughout the world. From these madrasahs, the student are engaged
in not only spreading sunniat but also work as a doctor, engineer,
architecture, judge, magistrate, barrister and so on. By finding the true way
of Islam everybody is running into it to take the accurate taste of Islam.
Jamia Ahmadia Sunnia Alia and Jamia Quaderia Tayebia Alia are the example of
such kinds of Madrasah of those. These madrasah are contributing to make
society peaceful, stable and collision free.
In
the above discussion we can say that if Allah subhanahu Ta’la did not send
Huzur Qibla Syed Muhammad Tayyab Shah Rahmatullahi Ta’la Alaihi in the world,
the world would prevail darkness with batil or wrong sect specially in
sub-continent. We are fortunate to become the follower of this great Pir and
Murshid who is the mujaddid of the fifteenth century.
