Ancestry edit
Hazrat Moinuddin Hadi Naqshband was a Sayyid, a direct descendant of the Islamic prophet Muhammad through his daughter Fatima al Zahra and his son in law and cousin Ali ibn Abu Talib.[3]
Paternal descent edit
He is descended in the paternal line from the seventh Imam, Musa al-Kadhim, through his son Ibrahim al Murtadha and the sufi master Khwaja Sayyid Mir Alauddin Atar, who was the successor and son in law of Bahauddin Naqshband. Bahauddin Naqshband was himself a patrilineal descendant of the eleventh Imam Hasan al Askari, through his son Sayyid Ali Akbar and also Sayyid Abdul Qadir Gilani through his grandmother.[4][5][6][7] Hazrat Ishaan Saheb was also related to the Sufi wali Farid ul-din Attar.[8]
Education edit
Khwaja Moinuddin Hadi Naqshbandi received his initial education from his father Hazrat Ishaan and then studied Hadith sciences under the guide of the prominent Hanafi scholar Khwaja Abdul Haq Muhaddis Dehlawi. As an outstanding student he received his Ijaza in Hadith and Fiqh from Khwaja Dehlawi and promoted the Naqshbandiyya way in Lahore and Kashmir alongside his father. He accompanied his father to Lahore by the request of Shah Jahan and settled back to Kashmir after the demise of his father, representing him there. As the Qutb of his time Islamic scholars in Punjab and Kashmir were dependent from his jurisprudence. Hence he has written many works under which one was a codification of his Fatwas called Futuwae Naqhbandiyya under which the scholars of his time profited.[9]

Spiritual rank edit
Hazrat Moinuddin Hadi Naqshband was Qutb, the highest ranking Wali Allah (saint) of his time. The Qutb is claimed to be the cosmic leader of the whole universe and righteous successor of Muhammad. Hazrat Ishaan stated that under his progeny there will come a son of him, who will revive the spiritual lineage and legacy of him and who will take his place as Qutb after him and thathe awaited successor of the Naqshbandiyya was Sayyid ul Sadaat Hazrat Sayyid Mir Jan.[1][11]
Successors edit
Khwaja Moinuddin Hadi Naqshband was succeeded by his grandson Nizamuddin Naqshbandi, because his three sons Khwaja Jani, Khwaja Zia and Khwaja Sharifuddin Muhammad died before him. Since Khwaja Sharifuddin Muhammad's son Khwaja Nizamuddin Naqshbandi was still too young the wife of Khwaja Moinuddin Naqshband Saheb Gul Begum took over the responsibility of the Naqshbandiyya. The line of Khwaja Moinuddin Naqshband later died out after the martyrdom of his descendant Khwaja Kamaluddin Naqshbandi, but was revived by his descendant Sayyid ul Sadaat Hazrat Sayyid Mir Jan Naqshbandi in the mid 19th century.[1][12]
