Life and career[edit]
Sayyid Mir Hasan was born into a prominent family of Sayyids, i.e. descendants of Prophet Muhammad. He is a patrilineal descendant of Imam Musa Al-Kazim.[1][2]
He started his career as an islamic scholar by studying the Quran and Sunnah and deepened his knowledge in the mystical Sufi path of Islam, as a prerequisite to be fit as a leader of the Sayyid community. He was taught by his father Sayyid Azimullah ibn Nimatullah and high-ranking Sufi Saints of his time.[3]
He eventually became very prominent and guided the Sayyid community of Khorasan region, which encompassed Sayyids belonging to various Sufi Saints, like Gilani Sayyids, the descendants of Bahauddin Naqshband and Hazrat Ishaan and various other Musavi Sayyids.[4]
Although the Musavis were mainly of Shiite faith, including leading Ayatollahs in Persia until today, he remained the only significant Musavi of Sunni faith and descent.[5]
This was very rare and received the attraction of various Muslims. He further attracted people due to his knowledge and capabilities of leadership and legitimated his leadership over the Sayyids as the inheritor of the Khirqa of the 2nd Imam Hasan ibn Ali and the 3rd Imam Hussein ibn Ali.[6][7]
The reason why he put an emphasis on Sunni Islam as Musavi Sayyid was in his point of view the more esoteric understanding of the history of the Sayyids and twelve Imams in particular.[8]
Although many Shiites distanced themselves from the Imams of the four madhhabs, i.e. legal schools of Sunni Islam, Sayyid Mir Hasan respected them highly since all of them were students of a particular Twelver Shiite Imam, i.e. his ancestors. Imam Abu Hanifa and Imam Malik were both students of his ancestor the 6th Imam Jafar al-Sadiq, Imam Shafii in turn was a student of Imam Malik and Imam Ahmad of Imam Shafii and the 9th Imam Muhammad al-Jawad.[9]
As a Sufi he preached the Qadiri and Naqshbandi Sufi way and initiated his children to Sufism.[10][11]
His oldest son Sayyid Mir Jan became the spiritual successor of the Naqshbandi order.[12][13]
