Hazrat Shah Sufi Syed Delwar Hossain Maizbhandari Hazrat Shah Sufi Syed Delwar Hossain
Maizbhandari is popularly known as the lineal heir of Hazrat Gausul Azam
Maizbhandari Hazrat Kebla Kaba (Ochi-E-Gausul Azam). This great mystic leader
expounded the Maizbhandari Philosophy through his inestimable writings. Hazrat
Delwar Hossain was born on 27th February 1893, corresponding to 13th Falgoon of
1299 Bengali Calendar Year. He was the son of Hazrat Shah Sufi Syed Faizul Huq
and grand son of Hazrat Gausul Azam Maizbhandari Hazrat Kebla Kaba. At the age
of 9, Hazrat Delwar Hossain lost his father. Hazrat Kebla Kaba used to like him
so much that he (Hazrat Kebla Kaba) affectionately used to call Hazrat Delwar
Hossain as "Dela Myna". Within the context of Bengali culture, this implies that
Hazrat Delwar Hossain was the dearest to Hazrat Kebla Kaba. Upon completion of
formal higher education in Islamic religion and philosophy, Hazrat Delwar
Hossain Maizbhandari had made extensive studies on various subjects covering
Quran, Hadith, Mysticism, History, Philosophy, and Logic. He had exemplary
command on various languages, including, Bengali, Urdu, English, Arabic, and
Persian. In essence, Hazrat Gausul Azam Maizbhandari is being considered as the
vast ocean of knowledge and Hazrat Delwar Hossain, unmasked this knowledge and
features of Maizbhandari teaching through his writings. He used to say’ " I am
the fountain of the Ocean of compassion of Hazrat Gausul Azam Maizbhandari".
Hazrat Delwar Hossain’s writings are considered as challenge to those, who often
fail to translate the true spirit of Quran and Sunnah. His famous book "Belayet
–EMotlaka" contains various scholastic issues of life within the context of
Quran and Sunnah and provides valuable direction for the mankind in this world
and hereafter. Many Islamic scholars, including Hazrat Moulana Azizul Hoque Sher-E-
Bangla noted extremely high of Hazrat Delwar’s writings. Hazrat Delwar Hossain
received his spiritual blessings from Hazrat Shah Sufi Syed Aminul Huq
Maizbhandari (one of the nephews and leading Khalifa of Hazrat Gausul Azam
Maizbhandari Shah Sufi Moulana Syed Ahmed Ullah (Hazrat Kebla Kaba) and then
from Hazrat Kebla Kaba himself. He also received "Ilme Marefat" (mystic
knowledge) from his father-in-law Hazrat Shah Sufi Moulana Syed Golamur Rahman
(Baba Bhandari). Indeed, by virtue of such spiritual blessings, Hazrat Delwar
Hossain had attained the highest level of visionary intellect. He used to
explain the message of Hazrat Kebla Kaba to the common people and teach them the
true way of accomplishing "Ibadat". He had always encouraged the devotees to
lead ideal life as integral human being. Hazrat Delwar Hossain led a very simple
and pious life within the strong fold of Shariah, as outlined in Quran and
Sunnah. Hazrat Delwar Hossain Maizbhandari had established many philanthropic,
educational and social institutions, focusing the need for serving the cause of
the universal humanity. Throughout his life, he provided guidance and direction
to innumerable people for becoming a good quality human being. Thus this great
spiritual personality is alive among his countless devotees as "Kademul Fokra" (Khademul
Fokra means the person serving the people, who are in the path of Allah). He
breathed his last on 16th January 1982, corresponding to 2nd Magh of 1338
Bengali Calendar Year. His polite and simple approach towards life is even
reflected after his departure from this world. Before his demise he told, "Don’t
make any structure on my grave. Bury me underneath the green grass of nature". |
