Résumé
The Sadaat Amroha (سادات امروہہ) or Amrohi SAYYID or SAYYID OF AMROHA(امروہی سید) are a community of Sayyids, historically settled in the town of Amroha, in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. Many members of the community migrated to Pakistan after independence and settled in Karachi,Sindh, Bewal- Rawalpindi - through Syed Dewan Shah Abdul Baqi Guzri Bewali bin Syed Abdul Wahid Guzri (Amroha) some descendants of whom settled in Azad Kashmir, from which some now also reside in The U.K. . The town of Amroha is home to one of the oldest Naqvi Sadat settlements in India. Naqvis in Amroha arrived from Wasit, Iraq and have resided in the town of Amroha since A.D. 1190. The Sadaat Amroha belong mainly to the Naqvi sub-group, because they are descendants of the Sufi saint Syed Sharfuddin Shah Wilayat (a true 9th direct descendant of Imam Ali Al-Naqi), who was a highly respected religious figure in Wasit, Iraq, and later in India during the early ages of Islam in the South Asia and the khalifa of Imam Suhrawardi. The majority of Amrohvie Sadaat are Naqvi, predominantly of Shia sects. According to the 1901 Census of India, the main sub-division of the Sayyid was the Husseini and Naqvi. The Amrohi Sayyids formed the military and service gentry of the region in the Mughal empire. Amroha became a hereditary jagir, as the family of Saiyyid Khwaja Ahmad Khan, sadat-i-Amroha, held pargana Amroha in their jagir for about a hundred years. When the Marathas invaded and plundered the region, the country of Western Uttar Pradesh was burnt with the exception of Amroha owing to a few thousand Amrohi Sayyid soldiers that drove out and conciliated with the Marathas. Syed Hussain Sharfuddin Shah Wilayat Naqvi ( سید حسین شرف الدين شاه ولايت ) was a prominent 13th-century Sufi or Makhdoom. He is the ninth descendant of Imam Ali al-Naqi al-Hadi. Local legend says that the animals who live in his mazar (shrine), especially scorpions, never harm humans. The Sadaat Amroha are divided among those that remained in India and those that emigrated to Pakistan.
