Throughout Islamic history, Muslims have been blessed with great personalities and leaders who have revived Islam by the nobility of their character, through writing books, and by their demeanour. Our period is no different save for the fact these personalities appear few and far between. In Hadrat Shaykh al-Islam we have a spiritual figure, awesome personality and an outstanding scholar.

Hadrat acquired the title of 'Shaykh al-Islam' circa 1974 when the Ulema of India started addressing him as such. Among the Ulema present at the time were Mufti-e-Azam al-Hind Mawlana Mustapha Raza Khan Rehmatullahi 'ta'ala alaih of Bareilly Shareef son of Ala'Hadrat Azeem al-Barkat Imam-e-Ahle Sunnat Mawlana Shah Ahmad Raza Khan Radi Allahu ta'ala anhu ; and Hadrat's Pir-o-Murshid - Shaykh al-Mashaykh, Mawlana Sayyad Mukhtar Ashraf 'Sarkar-e-Kalan' Rehmatullahi alaih.




Hadrat was first addressed as 'Raees al-Muhaqiqin' by His Holiness 'Gazzali-e-Doaran' Shaykh al-Hadith Mawlana Sayyad Ahmad Saeed Kazmi Rehmatullahi ta'ala alaih of Pakistan after Hadrat had sent for his perusal a fatwa on the Islamic use of television & video. Gazzali-e-Doaran Sayyad Ahmad Saeed Kazmi Rehmatullahi ta'ala alaih was so pleased with Hadrat's ruling and the excellent way that he had dealt with such a difficult subject that he addressed Hadrat as 'Raees-ul Muhaqiqin'. A letter confirming this was published in the monthly journal 'Al-Ashraf ' in Karachi in 1986. It is testament to Hadrat's knowledge that Muslims around the world almost universally rely on this fatwa when recording religious programmes.
