Biography
Mohammad Rafi was a scholar from the Mewat region who lived during the 17th and 18th centuries CE. He was a Muslim fundamentalist faqih who learned Sharia law like his father, Qazi Syed Mohammad Zaman. Being qadi of the city, he was responsible for its administrative and managerial affairs.
Rafi belonged to a Sayyid family. He married Fazal Nisan; they had two sons, Qazi Syed Mohammad Ashraf and Syed Mohammad Shamsuddin, and one daughter, Bibi Khan Daulat.[citation needed] Due to his knowledge of Islam, Rafi's son Shamsuddin was employed in the army at Nagpur. Rafi's brothers-in-law were both killed in combat - Raham Ali at Pargana Hansi and Mohammad Murad at Rewari, during a war with Jauhira Singh and Zaufa Singh.[citation needed] Rafi's great-grandchildren are remembered as accomplished Urdu and Persian scholars. They founded Jhajjar Bagh at Hansapuri (now Mominpura) in Nagpur and built a home there called Aina-e Mahal.[2]
