Mubarak Wilaadat Aur Khaandaani Shajra-e-Nasab

Hazrat Allama Abul Fateh Muhammad Hashmat Ali Khan Qadri Barkati (Alaihir Rahmah) ki wilaadat-e-ba-sa’adat 1319 Hijri (corresponding to 1901 CE) me Lucknow ke ek naseeb-war aur shareef gharane me hui [1].

Aap ka shajra aur khaandani pas-manzar behad shuja’at (bravery) aur ilm-o-faziilat se bhara hua hai:

Aap Ke Waalid-e-Giraami: Hazrat Haafiz Muhammad Nawaab Ali Khan (Alaihir Rahmah), jinhe ilm-o-adab ke halqe me Hidaayat Rasool Rampuri ke naam se jaana jata tha, bin Muhammad Hayaat Khan the. Aap ek nihayat hi parhezgar aur aalim-e-deen the.
Aap Ke Jad-e-Amjad (Paternal Grandfather): Hazrat Muhammad Khan Afridi (Alaihir Rahmah), jo tareekh me “Dare e Khyber” (Dar-e-Khyber, maujooda Pakistan) ke mard-e-mujahid ke taur par mashhoor the, wahan se hijrat karke Lucknow tashreef laaye. Lucknow me unki salahiyaton aur bahaduri ko dekhte hue, unhe fauji afsar (military officer) ke azeem ohade par faa’iz kiya gaya.

Ibtidaai Ta’aleem Aur Gumraahi Se Najaat Ka Karamaati Waaqia

Hazrat Hashmat Ali Khan ne apni ibtidaai darsi aur deeni ta’aleem Haafiz Qaari Tuaha Tonki (Alaihir Rahmah) ki zer-e-nigrani haasil ki. Iske baad, unhe aala deeni ta’aleem ke liye Lucknow ke mashhoor deeni idare, Madrasa-e-Furqaaniya me dakhil karwaya gaya.

Aap bachpan se hi behad zaheen, fateen aur tez dimaag ke maalik the:

Sirf nau (9) saal ki choti si umr me Aap ne mukammal Quran-e-Kareem hifz kiya aur Haafiz-e-Quran hone ka sharaf haasil kiya.
Sirf baarah (12) saal ki umr me Aap Tajweed ke mukammal qawaid aur saba qira’at (Qir’at-e-Saba) ke maahir daryaaft hue.

Aap ne Faarsi (Persian) ki ibtidaai ta’aleem Ahmad Husain Lucknowi (Alaihir Rahmah) se haasil ki, aur deeni kutub ko samajhne ke liye Nahw (syntax) aur Sarf (etymology) ki ibtidaai kitaaben Maulwi Nasir-ud-deen (Alaihir Rahmah) se padhin.

Hazrat Ka Turning Point Aur ‘Tamheed-ul-Eimaan’ Ka Asar

Aap ke bachpan ke dauraan, Makkah aur Hindustan me uthne wale Wahabi aur deegar firqon ke asaraat ke tahet, Aap unki baaton me aakar apne ghar me Mehfil-e-Meelaad Shareef ko “Shirk aur Bid’at” kehne lage aur apne waalidain ko bhi is mehfil ko karne se bachne ki talqeen karne lage. Aap ke deen-dar aur sunni waalidain Aap ki ye baten sun kar nihayat hairaan aur pareshaan hue ke itne parhezgar ghaandane me ye asar kahan se aaya.

Ek roz jab Aap madrasa se padhai mukammal karne ke baad ghar tashreef laaye, to Aap ne dekha ke Aap ki waalida deeni kutub ko dhoop me sukha rahi hain. Aap un kitaabon ko utha kar dekhne lage. Un kitaabon ke dher me Mujaddid-e-Deen-o-Millat Sarkaar Aala Hazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan ki azeem-ush-shaan tasneef ‘Tamheed-ul-Eimaan’ (Eimaan ki Hifazat karne wali kitaab) bhi moujood thi. Aap ne us kitaab ko uthaya aur nihayat dhyaan se padhna shuru kiya.

Jaise-jaise Aap is kitaab ke panne palatte gaye aur iska gahra mutala (study) karte gaye, Aap ke dimaag se gumraahi ke badal chat-te gaye, dil ka aalam poori tarah se tabdeel ho gaya aur Aap ke muh se ye alfaaz nikalne lage:

 $"Yaqeenan kaafir hain, Yaqeenan kaafir hain!"$

Yani wo bad-goh log jinhone Huzoor (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) ki shaan me gustakhiyaan ki thin aur jinka radd is kitaab me pesh kiya gaya tha, unka sach Aap ke samne aa gaya. Ye kitaab Aap ki zindagi ka azeem roohani mod (turning point) bani aur Aap hamesha ke liye Maslak-e-Ahle Sunnat par pakke ho gaye.

Bareilly Shareef Tashreef Laana Aur Aala Hazrat Ki Khidmat Me Dakhla

Is roohani tabdeeli ke baad, 1335 Hijri (1917 CE) me, sirf solah (16) saal ki umr me Aap Bareilly Shareef tashreef laaye aur Mujaddid-e-Azam Aala Hazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan Faazile Bareilwi (Alaihir Rahmah) ke haath par mureed hokar unke silsile me dakhil hue.

Aap ne Bareilly ke azeem deeni idare, Darul Uloom Manzar-e-Islam me dakhla liya. Wahan Aap ne un azeem-ush-shaan hastiyon ke saaye me rah kar deen ke gahre uloom aur ma’arif haasil kiye:

Aala Hazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan al-Qadiri (Alaihir Rahmah)
Sadr-ush-Shariah Mufti Amjad Ali Azmi (Alaihir Rahmah)
Hujjat-ul-Islam Maulana Muhammad Hamid Raza Khan (Alaihir Rahmah)
Mufti-e-Aazam-e-Hind Muhammad Mustafa Raza Khan (Alaihir Rahmah)
Maulana Raham Ilahi Manglori (Alaihir Rahmah)

Ta’aleem ke dauraan Aala Hazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan ne Aap ki koshishon aur koshish-e-sincere ko dekhte hue Aap par apni khaas roohani nigaah-e-tawajjoh farmayi.

1335 Hijri (1917 CE) me hi, Aap ki darsi koshishon ke inaam ke taur par, Hazrat Hujjat-ul-Islam Maulana Muhammad Hamid Raza Khan ne Aap ke sar par azeem Dastaar-e-Fazeelat (graduation turban) bandhi.

Ilmi Khidmaat Aur Darsi Ohade

Dastaar-e-Fazeelat haasil karne ke baad, Allama Hashmat Ali Khan ne apni zindagi ko dars-o-tadrees (teaching) ke liye waqf kar diya:

Aap Darul Uloom Manzar-e-Islam me hi mudarris (teacher) mukarrar hue aur a’la darje ke dars diye.
Iske baad, Aap Jamaat-e-Raza-e-Mustafa, Bareilly me Mufti ke azeem ohade par faa’iz hue aur Fatawa jaari karne lage.
Aap Darul Uloom Ahle Sunnat Miskeenia me Sadr-ul-Mudarriseen (Principal/Head of the Teaching Faculty) banaye gaye.
Pakistan ke mashhoor shahar Gujranwala (Gojra waala) me moujood azeem Zeenat-ul-Masjid me Khateeb aur Imam mukarrar hue, jahan Aap ke bayaan ko sunne hazaron log aate the.

Haldwani Ka Azeem Munazara Aur Aala Hazrat Ka Inaam

Allama Hashmat Ali Khan Qadri Barkati aala darje ke munaazir (theological debater) the. Unki radd-o-badal aur daleel dene ki salahiyat ka poora Hindustan loha maanta tha.

Aap ka sabse pehla munazara Haldwani ke maqam par hua. Sirf atharah (18) saal ki choti si umr me, Sarkaar Aala Hazrat ne unki koshishon ko dekhte hue unhe Sadr Munaazir (Chief Debater) bana kar Haldwani bheja.

Deobandiyon ki taraf se unka sabse bada aur mashhoor munaazir, Ashraf Ali Thanwi ka khaliifa, Yaseen Khamsarai (Yasin Khaam-sarai) mukabil tha, jise Deobandi apna sabse bada haseeb aur munaazir maante the.

Is munazare me 18 saal ke is jawan aalim ne aisi aali-darje ki dalail pesh kin ke Deobandiyon ko zillat-aamez shikast mili aur Ahle Sunnat ko fatah-e-mubeen naseeb hui.

Aala Hazrat Ka Roohani Inaam

Sarkaar Allama Hashmat Ali Khan jab Haldwani se fatah haasil karke Bareilly Shareef me Aala Hazrat ki baargaah me hazir hue, to Aala Hazrat unhe dekh kar behad khush hue. Aap ne unhe apne kareeb bulaya, khade hokar unhe apne seene se lagaya, aur apna azeem Amama Shareef (turban) unke sar par rakha.

Sirf yahi nahi, balki Aala Hazrat ne apna khud ka Mubarak Jubba (cloak) unhe ataa farmaya, aur apni mubarak jeb se paanch (5) silver Rupees nikaal kar inaam ke taur par diye.

Aala Hazrat ne unhe unki is fatah ke baad do azeem alqaab ataa farmaye:

“Abul Fatah” (Fatah aur Kamyaabi Ka Baap)
“Ghaa’iz-ul-Munaafiqeen” (Munaafiqon Ko Jalane Aur Unhe Ruswa Karne Wala)

Hazrat ne apni poori zindagi Wahabi, Qadiani, Nechari (modernists), Chakralwi (rejectors of Hadith), Khaksari, aur Bahai jaise bad-mazhab aur gumraah firqon ke sath munazare kiye aur Allah ke fazl se hamesha fatah haasil ki.

Jab Hindustan me Sudhi tehreeq (jisne gareeb musalmanon ko Hindu banane ki koshish ki thi) shuru hui, to Hazrat ne din-raat ek karke musalmanon ke eimaan ki hifazat ki aur unhe gumraah hone se bachaya. Aap ke bayaan aur wa’az ko sunkar lakhon logon ka aqeeda durust aur mazboot hua.

Surat Ka Karamaati Waaqia: Aala Hazrat Ki Bedaari Me Ziyarat

Hazrat Allama Hashmat Ali Khan ke hum-asr (contemporary) ulama aur masha’ikh Aap ki behad ta’azeem wa takreem karte the. Aap ke mukaddas safaron ke dauraan ek azeem-ush-shaan karamat (miracle) Surat (Gujarat) me zahir hui.

Ek martaba shehre Surat me Aap taqreer farma rahe the aur hazaron ka majma bayaan sun raha tha. Us majme me moujood ek aalim, Maulana Ghulaam Nizaam-ud-deen Qaadri Barkaati ne bayaan ke dauraan ek hairan-kun nazaara dekha:
Unhone dekha ke ek buzurg, jinki safed mubarak daadhi thi, safed malmal ka angrakha pehne aur safed amama shareef baandhe, apne mubarak asaa (walking stick) par zor dekar Hazrat Hashmat Ali Khan ki kursi ke peeche jalwa-afroz hain. Unhone apna daahina haath (right hand) nihayat hi mohabbat se Hazrat ki pusht-e-mubarak (back) par rakha hua hai.

Maulana Ghulaam Nizaam-ud-deen un Buzurg ko dekh kar adab ke maare khade ho gaye. Dauraane wa’az jab Hazrat Hashmat Ali ne Maulana ko khade dekha, to bayaan ke beech me unhe baithne ka ishara kiya. Magar Maulana adab ki wajah se poore bayaan aur aakhir me padhe jaane wale salat-o-salam tak khade rahe. Jaise hi Hazrat ne dua maangna shuru kiya, wo buzurg nigaah se ojhal ho gaye aur Maulana baith gaye.

Taqreer ke baad jab sab log qayaam-gah (lodging) par aaye, to Hazrat Hashmat Ali ne Maulana Ghulam Nizamuddin se pucha:

“O Maulana! Aap bayaan ke dauraan khade kyun ho gaye the aur ishara karne par bhi poore bayaan tak khade rahe, iska kya sabab tha?”

Maulana ne poora waaqia bayan kiya aur un buzurg ka mukammal shaqshiyat aur huliya bataya. Hazrat ne jab unka huliya suna, to unki aakhon me aansoo aa gaye aur unhone farmaya:

*”Mubarak ho! Aap behad barkat waale hain ke aap ko Mujaddid-e-Deen-o-Millat Sarkaar Aala Hazrat Imaam Ahmad Raza Khan Faazile Bareilwi ki bedaari (waking state) me ziyarat naseeb hui!

Aur Alhamdulillāh ke Huzoor Aala Hazrat is Faqeer Sage Razawi (Raza ke kutte) se raazi hain aur har maidaan me iski roohani madad farma rahe hain.”*

Hazrat Ki Likhi Hui Azeem Kutub (Tasaneef)

Allama Hashmat Ali Khan ne gumraah firqon ke radd me aur deen-e-haq ki hifazat ke liye kai azeem-ush-shaan kutub likhin, jinme se mashhoor tasaneef ye hain:

Barabanki Ka Azeem Munazara Aur Hazrat Ki Shahaadat

Hindustan ke shahar Barabanki me Deobandiyon ke sath ek nihayat hi bada tareekhi munazara pesh aaya. Is munazare me Hazrat Allama Hashmat Ali Khan ne unhe aisi dalail din ke unhe buri tarah shikast naseeb hui.

Is shikast ke baad, dushmano ne chalaki dikhayi. Ek shakhs jhoota Sunni hone ka dikhaawa karke Hazrat ki khidmat me rehne laga. Ek roz mauka paakar, usne Paan me Hazrat ko behad tez zeher (poison) de diya.

Hazrat ne jab paan chabaya, to unhe gala jalne laga aur kuch ajeeb sa mehsoos hua. Unhone foran paan thook diya, lekin zeher apna asar kar chuka tha. Zeher ke asar se Hazrat ke gale ke andar bhayanak soojan (swelling) aur takleef hadd se zyada badh gayi, jo waqt ke sath badhti rahi aur aakhir-kaar wahi unki shahaadat ka sabab bani.

Hazrat Ka Wisaal-e-Shareef Aur Mazaar

Hazrat Allama Abul Fateh Muhammad Hashmat Ali Khan Qadri Barkati (Alaihir Rahmah) ka wisaal-e-ba-sa’adat 8 Muharram 1380 Hijri (3 July 1960 A.D.) ko subah thik 10:00 baje hua [1].
