Ibrāhīm Pēshawarī (Pashto: ابراهیم پېښوری‎, Bengali: ইব্রাহীম পেশওয়ারী) was a Pashtun Islamic scholar based in Bengal.[1]

Early life and education[edit]

Peshawari was born around 1850 CE, into a Pashtun family of Sunni Muslims in Hoti, Mardan near Peshawar in modern-day Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Most of the people of this area belonged to the Yusufzai tribe.

Peshawari studied under several ulama in the North-West Frontier Province before enrolling at the Darul Uloom Deoband, an Islamic university in North India from which the Deobandi movement emerged from. In Deoband, he completed Hadith studies. He then moved to nearby Gangoh, where he gained Hadith certification from Rashid Ahmad Gangohi.[2]

Career[edit]

After completing his studies, Peshwari started his career as a teacher at the Daaro Madrasa in Nainital, present-day Uttarakhand. He later moved to Dacca where he founded a madrasa adjacent to the Chawk Mosque. He became a teacher of Hadith at the madrasa, and one of his many notable students include Mawlana Mufti Din Muhammad Khan (b. 1900).

Death[edit]

Peshawari died in 1349 AH (1930 CE) in the city of Dacca. He was buried in the graveyard adjacent to the Khaje Dewan Shahi Masjid in Old Dhaka.
