Mowla Pak

Mazar sharif of His Holiness Hazrat Syed Shah Murshed Ali Al Qadri (a.s.) Mowlapak...

When Allah so desires he sends his beloved,ordained with attribute and honour and exaltation and divine knowledge .It is the holy grace of the creator that such personalities enrich our world with their august presence.Towards the late sixties of the nineteenth century began the spiritual reign of a great saint ,the noblest of his time. He was Syedana-o-Mowlana Hazrat Syed Shah Ali Abdul Qader Shamsul Qadri (a.s.)  also known as Syed Shah Murshed Ali Al Qadri or Mowla Pak. He was born in the town of Midnapore on the night of 27th ramzan1268 Hijri which corresponded with 16th July 1852 A.D.His youngest brother Hazrat Syed Shah Wali Murshed Al Qadri(a.s.) has made the following observations in his book, titled  "Tahrees-e-Mutabaate-Wali Murshed"; "His holiness, the gracious and pious Sajjadanashin of the Qadri Order,the custodian of divine secrets and the exponent of niceties of Shariat and Tariqat,the perennial faster and the night long worshiper (of Allah) is Mowlana Syed Shah Murshed Ali Al Qadri(.a.s.)" ....

  He was under the tutelage of is illustrious father his Holiness Syedana Hazrat Syed Shah Mehre Ali Al Qadri (a.s.).From his childhood,the greatness of values,virtues,manners,conduct and behaviour were emphasized by his noble teacher and preacher.The intelligence and sagacity during his childhood was such that whatever he read or heard, was memorized and this had a lasting impression on his mind and the inward eyes.Before his Wesal (union with the creator) his illustrious father and pir-o-Murshed granted permission of guardianship to his able son and disciple Hazrat Syed Murshed Ali Al Qadri(a.s.) and put him on the citadel and pinnacle of the Qadri Order he was made the Sajjadanashin at the early age of sixteen..

Huzoor Mowla Pak was a great lover of books and was extreamly well versed in religious sciences and had a complete command over Arabic,Persian and Urdu language and literature,with eloquence in Persian style of writing and elocution.He wrote poems based on sufi principle and thoughts.His poetic compilation known as "Diwaan-e-Hazrat-e-Jamaal" bears eulogies dedicated to our holy Prophet(p.b.u.h.) and to Hazrat Ghaus-ul-Azam(a.s.).He had a sweet disposition and an absorbing all embracing and unbounded love for all.He felt the joys and woes of others as though they were his own.His disciples surrendered themselves entirely to him and laid bare the most hidden secrets of their hearts to him.His love was as wide as the universe itself and as infinite.He also worked countless miracles for his disciples .Mowla pak's followers loved him so dearly that no one could ever think that he would ever depart from them.At last when he announced the date of his Wesal sharif,there was a genuine grief in every heart and there was a sense of dark despair everywhere.He said even after passing away he would look after the welfare of his disciples .
  The Wesal sharif was a glorious one.There was a cheerful and confident eagerness for union with eternal beloved .At about two 0' clock in the morning he asked his khadim(servant) to bring his Kafan Shariif (winding sheet) which he kept ready with him.He then gave the necessary instructions for the last solemn rites.A few minutes later the final union with the Beloved took place.The holy remains were interned in a beautiful Mazar Sharif in Midnapore beside the sacred tombs of his parents.He was succeeded in the spiritual line of descent by his son Syedana Hazrat Syed Shah Irshaad Ali Al Qadri(a.s.) who became the next Sajjadanashin....
