Ghulām Muṣṭafā al-Burdwānī (Arabic: غلام مصطفى البردواني‎), or alternatively Golam Mostafa Bardhamani (Bengali: গোলাম মোস্তফা বর্ধমানী), was an 18th-century Islamic scholar and poet from Burdwan in western Bengal.[1] He is mentioned in the works of Abd al-Hayy al-Hasani and Muhammad Ishaq Bhatti, where he is described as one of the leading scholars in the fields of Islamic jurisprudence during his time.[2]

Biography[edit]

Ghulam Mustafa was born into a Bengali Muslim family from Burdwan in the Bengal Subah. He became a senior student of Abdul Ali Bahrul Ulum (son of Dars-i Nizami deviser Nizamuddin Sihalivi) during his studies at the Jalalia Madrasa in the village of Bohar.[3] He was a follower of the Hanafi madhhab.[4] After completing his studies, he served as the Mufti (head jurist) of Etawah in India for many years.[3] He then transferred to Birbhum, near Burdwan, in Bengal until the end of his life.[5] Ghulam Mustafa was also a distinguished poet of the Persian language.[6]
