Muhammad Hashmat Ali Khan Qadri Lucknowi[1] (1902–3 July 1960) popularly known as Sher Beesha-e-Ahle Sunnat or Munazir-e-Ahle Sunnat was an Indian Islamic scholar, cleric, author and writer belonging to the Barelvi movement of Sunni Islam.[2][3] He was the spiritual successor of Ahmed Raza Khan Barelvi in the Qadiriyya-Razaviyya order of Sufism.[4][5][6][7][8] He was against the ideology of Muhammad Ali Jinnah and he had written a book against the Two-nation theory which is still banned in Pakistan.[2][9]
Early life and education

At the young age of 14, he was sent to Dar al-Uloom Manzar-e-Islam in Bareilly to study under the tutelage of the scholars of his time. There, he became a disciple of Ahmed Raza Khan Barelvi, an Islamic scholar and the founder of Barelvi movement under Sunni Islam. Barelvi paid special attention to the Hashmat Ali.[14][15][16]
He also studied under Amjad Ali Aazmi, and Hamid Raza Khan, the elder son of Ahmed Raza Khan Barelvi. His educational journey was marked by his excellence in learning and debating, which earned him the title of “Abul Fatah” from Ahmed Raza Khan.[17][18][19]
