Hujjat Allah al-Baaligha By Shah waliullah dhelvi
About The Author
Qutb al-Din Ahmad ibn 'Abd al-Rahim, popularly known as Shah Waliyyullah was born on 4th Shawwāl 1114 AH/10th February 1703 CE in northern India. He was a descendant of Hadhrat ‘Umar ibn al-Khaṭṭab(RA) and was thus Qurayshi. He had a traditional education in all the classical sciences from his father and other scholars in India before journeying to Makkah from where he returned in 1145 AH/1733 CE with great knowledge of all the major works of hadith.
He dedicated the rest of his life to teaching in the Madrasah Rahīmiyyah and to writing widely on all the known Islamic sciences as well as working indefatigably for the reform of Indian society and the renewal of the dīn. He died in 1176 AH/1762 CE.
He lived at a critical juncture of Muslim history. India had enjoyed the peaceful and prosperous rule of the Mughals for more than 200 years, but by the time of Shah Waliyyullah, mutually hostile principalities had begun to emerge. Many of the newly emerging quasi independent states were the result of the rising influence of the militant Maratha, Sikh and Hindu communities and Muslim power and glory in the sub-continent, as in other parts of the world, were gradually eroded. It was at this time of utter despair and despondency for Muslims that Shah Waliyyullah was born.
He is among the later scholars who carried the traditions of Al-Ghazzali and Imam Shatibi in combining the essential of Shari'ah, its understanding, development and interpretation to the issues and problems of life. He like Al-Ghazzali took deep stock of Akhira as the explaining point of the relationship between worldly existence and the Hereafter in a meaningful way.

[Biography] – Shaikh Abul-Hariz Malik Abdul-Aziz Munazar Multani [1389H]
Compiled, Translated and Annotated
Abu Hibbaan & Abu Khuzaimah Ansaari
Compiled 2003
1. Shaykh al-Allaamah Abdul-Haqq Multaanee
He was originally from Dhera Ismaa’eel Khaan and a Faraanee Afghan, he later moved to Multaan. He was from amongst the first people who started to call the people to the Tawheed of Allaah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (Sallalaahu Alayhee Wasallam) in that area. Suffice it to say that he was one of the foremost students of al-Allaamah al-Muhaddith al-Muftee Mian Nazeer Hussain Muhaddith Dehlawee (d.1318H), from who he learnt all the different branches of Islaam. His rank and position with his teacher was such that he (Mian Nazeer Hussain) would have complete trust and reliance in him.
When questions would come to Mian Nazeer he would pass them onto Shaykh Abdul-Haqq who would answer them and Main Nazeer would then just add his approval. So when one looks at ‘Fataawaa Nazeeriyyah’ of Allaamah Nazeer Hussain some of the verdicts have the name of Abdul-Haqq next to them. This was his rank. Then another well-known student of al-Allaamah Mian Nazeer Hussain, Shaykh al-Allaaamah al-Muhaddith Abul-A’la Muhammad Abdur Rahmaan Mubaarakpooree, the author of Tuhfatul Ahwadhee, checked Fataawa Nazeeriyyah.
His Works
The main areas of writing and research of the Shaykh were shee’ism and the refutation of Taqleed hence most of his works revolve around this.
In refutation of the Shee’ah he wrote,
1. The Decisive Word On Who Murdered Hussain.
2. The Decisive Word On the Marriage of Umm Kulthoom (bint Alee to Umar al-Khataab).
3. Hadeeth Qartaas.
4. The Garden of Fidak.
5. Ehtimaam Janaazah Khair al-Anaam.
6. al-Burhaan al-Ma’qool Fee Tarbee’a Binaat ar-Rasool.
7. Khilaafat Saadiqah.
8. Fadhail Khulafa Raashideen.
9. Fadhail Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthmaan From Shee’ah Narration’s.
On the Hanafees he wrote,
10. Isteesaal at-Taqleed
11. Faisalah Raf ul-Yadain
12. Faisalah Munazarah Raf ul-Yadain (Murattab)
13. Risaalah Qiraa’h Khalf al-Imaam.
14. Tahqeeq at-Taraaweeh
