Brief history of Moulana Syed Mohammed Yousha Faizi

786/110
Mohammed Yousha “Faizi” Zangipuri

SHAIR
AALIM
ZAAKIR
A GOOD EKHLAAQ

Born in 1929 A.D, Syed Mohammed Yousha “Faizi” was his adapted name in poetry. He was born into a religious family and he was the known eighth generation ALIM and his father Allama Qais Zangipuri was an internationally recognized Sha’er-e-Ahle Bayt(a.s). He was born in Zangipur district of Ghazipur. Zangipur requires no introduction amongst the community of keen followers of Shia theology for its title as “Seat of Islamic Theology” in the yesteryears.
He lost his mother at a very tender age of 12 and had his education at Jawadia Arabic College, Banaras. During his education itself his passion for Shaeri was well known, why not because he had inherited the same from his father.

He was a self made man, refined in manners, always stressing the performance of religious duties, observance of Islamic tenets. He was a great azadar and his death on Sham-e- Ghariban testifies it. He has written many books on various aspects of Islam.

He began his career as Imam-e-Juma in late 60’s in Ranchi, later served as imam-e-Juma at Basravi masjid in Kolkata and later in the year 1975 on the invitation of AnJuma n-e- imamia took up the responsibility as imam-e-Juma in Askari masjid Bangalore where he served till the end almost for 32yrs.He along with others brought Bangalore AZADARI, Maqasad and other religious activities to international recognition.

He served as a humble patron in various religious organizations, including member Karnataka State Board of Wakfs.

He was a learned and practical Alim, who would simplify complicated matters with ease any masaa’el (Islamic Laws) so as to make it interesting and practical and was an equally eloquent Zakir - e – Ahlebait(a.s) and Sha’er. It was a unique amalgamation , seldom it would be difficult to say what he is best at .

His passion for sha’eri was unparalled. His love for his native Zangipur was enormous.
In his entire life he could not visit Zangipur only on 5 occasions. It was his love for his watan which took him there even after his death, 2500 Kms from Banglore. He was known for his akhlaq and mehman nawazi and that gave him outmost satisfaction.

He was loved adored by all his relations, not only respected by his own community, but people across all religions respected him. His funeral at Zangipur was a testimony for that where people across all faiths congregated in chilling winter till the late evening to pay their tributes to him.

In the year 1974, he compiled Kaif-e-moaddat, collection of few well known qasaed
Rubaiyat of Qais Zangipuri in two different editions.

Later compiled Yaad-e-Karbala, collection of few well known nauhas of Qais Zangipuri.

Just days before his last breaths, he released the audio and video(VCDs) version of Yaad-e-karbala Vol-2, compiled by his son Saulath Abbas and earlier vol-1 compiled by his third son Majlisi Faizi.

His well known sher for azadari was “BUS ISLIYE AZEEZ HAI YE ZINDAGI HAMEY, HUM MARKE PHIR HUSSAIN KO RONE NA PAENGE”.
The trend mashallah continues as his son Syed Farqaleetha Ali Hussainy is serving as resident Alim in USA. His son Syed Qasid Abbas Hussainy is pursuing his Ilm-E-Deen(Islamic Education) and shall continue further.

Eid e Ghadeer Muabarak to all momineen across the universe.




Momineen of Zangipur wish everyone a very happy Eid e Ghadeer.


Eid-E-Ghadir :
Eid-E-Ghadir (I'd-Al-Ghadir) which is on the 18th of the Zilhajj (Lunar Calendar) is one of the most celebrated event by Shiite Moslems. The event of Ghadir means the nomination of Moula Ali by the Prophet Mohammad(p.b.u.h) as his successor.

"MAN KUNTO MAULA FA HAZA ALUYUN MAULA"
"Whomever I am his master, Ali is his master too. He is my Caliph (successor) upon you after me.”
“O Lord support whoever supports Ali and oppose whoever opposes him."

It was the tradition of all the prophets to nominate their successors in compliance with the order of God and regardless of the approval of their followers. To the Moslems, Ghadir-e-Khum is the famous place where the Prophet Mohammad revealed his final message that he would be succeeded by Saint (Hazrat) Ali. The Arabic word "Ghadir" means pond and Khum is the particular pond located about 90 Kilometers (54 miles) northwest of Mecca in the heart of the desert called "Sahra -e- Hujfah".
As Prophet Mohammad arrived at Ghadir-e-Khum, he heard the voice of Archangel Gabriel and the signs of revelation appeared. As Prophet heard the Angel, he asked to recite Azan (or Adhan, prayers that the muezzin will say to gather Moslems to the mosque) with addition of words "Hayya'ala Khair il'amal which means hasten towards the best of deeds.

QASEEDA- DHOOP

By Molana Syed Farqaleetha Ali Husaini Zangipuri

Subho huwi suraj ne nikal kar charo taraf phelaayi dhoop
Pehle Ali ki chokhat chumi phir kaabe per aayi dhoop

Bughz-e-Ali mein jalne wale aur bhi jalthe jathe the
Magrib se jab suraj palta aur saro per chaayi dhoop

Nusrath-e- haq ke josh mein aakar jab maidan main aaye habeeb
Ek boodhe ki jism ki garmi dekh ke khud ghabrayi dhoop

Hindu hai na muslim hai na sikh hai na esaayi dhoop
Moula ka aashiq hai suraj asl mein hai moulayi dhoop

Saalgira hai dhoop ki yaron ghaur se dekho suwe haram
Aayi jidar-e-kaba per phir noor simatne aayi dhoop

Pyaas ki shiddath looh ki hiddath bachchon ke murjhaye chehre Karbobala ke ban mein aakar har lamha pashthayi dhoop

Dhoop ki jab hothi hai shiddath phool har ek murjhatha hai
Shah-e- zaman ka phool jab aaya sharm se khud murjhayi dhoop

Hukm-e- Ali hi hukm-e-khuda hai duniya ne ye jaan liya
Mujko bathao hukm se kiske jaake dobara aayi dhoop

QASEEDA
Gham-e-hussain na ho tho khushi nahi hoti

By Molana syed farqaleetha ali hussaini zangipuri


Lahoo mein jinke wila-e- Ali nahi hoti
Hamari unse kabhi dosti nahi hoti

Ye bath hazrath-e-waiz ko kaun samjaye
Ye maikada hai yahan dillagi nahi hoti

Tujhe namaz mein bhi shak pe shak hai ye waiz
Yahan nashe mein bhi ghaflath kabhi nahi hoti

Yeh raaz teri samaj mein naa aa saka ab tak
Baghair hubbe Ali bandagi nahi hoti

Bohoth buland hai meyyaar-e- ashiqan-e-Ali
Hamari bath giri aur padi nahi hoti

Zaroor kehtha mein jannath ko lajawab “ANEEQ”
Agar nazar mein najaf ki gali nahi hoti

Yeh bath zikr-e-Ali per faqath nahi mauqoof
Munafiqon pe kabhi taazgi nahi hoti

Agar naa aatha dar-e-fathema ke bosey ko
Kabhi sithaaron mein taa bandagi nahi hoti

Na jaane kyu mujhe aksar khayal aatha hai
Meri nuseri se kyu dushmani nahi hoti

Yeh poochthe hai farishthon se dushmana ne Ali
Hamari qabr mein kyun roshni nahi hoti

Kaha farishthon ne bughz-e-Ali andhera hai
Andhere mein kabhi taabandagi nahi hoti

Yeh bath apne hi sheron se hogayi maloom
Baghair luthfe khuda shayeri nahi hoti

Kisi bhi mulk mein jaaye kisi dayaar main hum
Gham-e- hussain naa ho tho kushi nahi hoti.

TRIBUTE TO MOULANA SYED JAWAD ZANGPURI:

TRIBUTE TO MOULANA SYED JAWAD ZANGPURI:
Brief about Moulana Syed Ali Jawad sahab son of Syed Mohammed sb Zangipuri who was the founder of MADRASA-E-IMANIA at Banaras.
Click here to read full article

He was born in 1274 A.H (1857 A.D) in Zangipur. Lost his father at the age of 10 years, his maternal grandfather Mir Inayath Hussain who had settled in Varanasi (then Banaras) took took up the responsibility of bringing up Ali Jawad sahib and hence he was brought up in Varanasi. He pursued his initial education under Moulana Syed Imdad Ali sahib Banarsi and Moulana Raza Hussain Navezvi. Later he embarked to Lucknow to pursue higher education where Sheikh sahib Karbalai awarded him Ejaza-e-Ijtehad but his magnanimous simplicity was such that he did not reveal it to anyone else. Later on he returned to Varanasi and devoted his time for the services to Islam.
During those days he also encouraged a lot of small time bakers and sweetmakers from the minority and majority community to setup facilities in Banaras which could also be utilised for the purpose of nazar and majalises.

He formed an organization (Anjuman) FALAHUL AKHWAN which was connected to his family and his affiliates and other Tehzeeb and Akhlakh which also comprised Ghazipur and Banaras apart from Zangipur. He was mostly involved in self reformation and was away most of the time occupied wih his teaching and hospitality oand hence he did not have much time to author plenty of books. His lectures, religious discourses and majalis went on for 3 to 4 hours where he emphasized upon self reformation and success.

He was a prolific orator especially his Masaib (Ghame Ahle Bayt (a.s)) used to be very heart rendering. His four majlises:
18th Jamadussani, Eid-e-Ghadeer
17th Rabiul Awal
13th Rajab
28th Safar
Are very historic and during those times a lot people from different communities and towns around used to attend and appreciated the great facts that he highlighted in his majalises.

He had two sons one Moulana Sajjad Zangipuri who although had not been to Lucknow for higher education served his father and attained great knowledge and whereafter became a revered Aalim.
His other son was Syed Taqi Zangipuri. It is mentioned in Allama Kasuri’s autobiography that I got down at the residence of Qazi Bande Ali Khan in Telyar Nala in Banaras and said that in this family a learned person by name Syed Ali Jawad who is also admitted in a Madrasa-e-Imania Lucknow who by grace of Allah os very close to Ijtehad and a Mujtahid is lighting the lamp of guidance to knowledge,peace and prosperity.

Brief of the news published:
On March 2, 2004 The Chicago Tribune reported, "In the parched desert of what is now Iraq, Imam Hussein, the grandson of the prophet Muhammad, was martyred by Sunni Muslim armies, giving rise to the separate Shiite sect of Islam. It all took place more than 1,300 years ago. But for Chicago's small Shiite community--and millions of believers, from Iraq to the Indian subcontinent and even the Caribbean--it could have happened only yesterday. For 10 days, the faithful relive the passion of Hussein's death at the hands of his oppressors--the defining moment of what it means to be a minority Shiite Muslim in a world dominated by Sunnis. Culminating their mourning ritual on the 10th day, generally known as Ashoura, members of the Chicago community will march Tuesday from the Daley Center to Michigan Avenue and back. For each of 10 previous nights in a small Northwest Side mosque, Farqalita and other imams recounted for a spellbound audience the exploits and suffering of Hussein, who died, abandoned by friends and supporters, to defend his family's succession to Muhammad as the head of the Muslim community."

Moulana Harun Zangipri's work highlighted in http://www.al-islam.org/abudharr/10.htm

Excerpt from the book:
Chapter 7

There are countless exhortations which the Prophet made to Abuzar. We here throw light on a few of them. Moulana Muhammad Harun Zangipuri writes on the authority of "Amali" of Shaykh Tusi that the Prophet said to Abuzar:
“O Abuzar! Worship Allah as if you are seeing Him, or He is seeing you and even if you are not seeing him”.
Know that His foremost worship is His cognition i.e. to understand that He is the First before whom there was none. He is One without a partner. He is Eternal having no end. He is the Creator of all things between the earth and the heavens. He is Pure and Omniscient. He is Free from every blemish, and is the Creator of all things

Excerpt from the book:
The Beginnings of Shi‘i Scholarship in Awadh
Shi‘i rule in Awadh necessitated the development of a class of Shi‘i religious experts. Yet, surprisingly, this development took place very slowly. Until the 1780s most Shi‘i scholars in Awadh fell into two categories. They were middle landholding Sayyids in the lineage centers or they served as poets, physicians, or tutors at regional courts. In both cases they resembled gentlemen scholars more than professional clergy. Let us examine the pressures that created a trained, specialized corps of ulama receiving patronage from Awadh's Shi‘i ruling group.
Until 1766, when Nawab Shujacu'd-Dawlah settled down to rule Awadh and Allahabad from Faizabad, he made little patronage available to Shi‘i scholars. Imamis pursued their scholarship on an informal basis, lacking any major institution comparable to Farangi Mahall. Some Shi‘i scholars, such as Mawlavi Sayyid ‘Ata' Husayn Zangipuri, sought and received cash gifts and land grants from Mughal ruler Muhammad Shah, but the increasing confusion at the Mughal center made this form of wealth less and less stable.[36] Scholars functioned as independent agents, taking advantage of political decentralization in North India to find patronage with local magnates in Awadh, in Bengal, or even in Hindu-ruled Banaras.
