Shah Wali Ullah(Beginning of the Movement)

Shah Wali ullah

Why did Shah Wali ullah start his religious movement?

  Shah Wali ullah started his religious movement because Muslims were facing great hardships due to the negligence of Mughal Empire. Non-Muslim forces were becoming more powerful e.g. Marathas in Delhi were forcing Muslims to convert to Marathaism. Muslim government was not helping these Muslims. Muslims of Delhi were not allowed to say Azaan, could not offer prayer openly, could not fast and even their houses were burnt when they were not ready to accept Marathaism. In these worsening conditions there was a need of a leader and protector who could support Muslims against Marathas. This was the reason Shah Wali ullah moved ahead and invited Ahmed Shah Abdali to protect Muslims.

   Muslims of his time were too much divided into sectarian groups like Shiyas and Sunnis. Shah Wali ullah wanted Muslims to be united on the fundamentals of Islam leaving their differences aside. He believed that Muslims needed to be honest, truthful, united and to be active enough to become prosperous by honest living. He explained Muslims to do honest trading and be truthful. He took it as a mission and continued working for the social and religious uplift of Muslim community that is why he started the movement.

   He was actively working as head of his father’s madrasa (Madrasa Raheemiya). In this madrasa he educated thousands of young Muslims according to the teachings of Qur’an and Sunnah. He translated Qur’an as he wanted Muslims to understand true meaning of Qur’an and not to be misguided by anyone else. Translation of the holy Qur’an could help Muslims to leave un Islamic practices and follow the true teachings of their religion. He also believed that explanation of these verses could be further helpful. This was the reason Shah Wali ullah started his religious movement.
