Abu Bakar Siddique

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki





Sufi Saint Hazrat Abu Bakar Siddique is directly related to the family of the first Khalif of Islam, Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique. He founded the order of Furfura-Sharif and he was a reformer of the society & religion (Mujaddid-E-Zaman) of an era.[1][2]. He was born in 1845 in Furfura-Sharif (Hooghly District)[3]. He contributed a lot by lecturing and publishing several articles so that the Muslim can be a part of Ahl-i-Sunnat wa’l-Jama‘at being away from the misguided path[4][5][6]. He worked with a strong focus to protect the identity of Indian Muslims so that their practices don't get mixed with the then Hindu beliefs and culture[7]. He also contributed in the prohibition of riba (usurious transactions) saying that indebtedness creates serious problem for both the material and religious life of the Muslim peasant[8]
