Abstract

Pir Syed Jama‘at Ali Shah (b. 1841- d. 1951) a leading Sufi and religions figure of the Indian sub-continent enjoyed the support of a large following in India. As a leader of his community he could not isolate himself from the political issues concerning and affecting the Muslims. The present study deals with his role in the Khilafat Movement, Hijrat Movement, All India Sunni Conference and Shaheed Ganj Movement. It was the period of political awakening for the Muslims of India so it has become all the more important to discuss in detail his response as a leading Sufi Shaikh and the President of an influential All India level political organization.
