Once he was traveling and passed near the village of shaykh and visited him. This is a sign of deep esteem and respect in Sufism, and shows esteem the scholars of Deoband gave to the shaykh.Īnother famous Deobandi scholar, Syed Ata Ullah Shah Bukhari was also devoted to the shaykh. When the shaykh was leaving from his home, Qari Tayyab, out of pleasure and deep respect, helped the shaykh put on his shoes. In the same book, Mawlana Siddiqi narrates that the mentioned scholar Qari Muhammad Tayyab was indeed too happy to see the shaykh and invited him at his home for food. At this, Qari sahib asked someone to bring the Amama and put it near the place of Imam, so whoever would lead the congregation, would take that and place it on the head. After the prayer, the Shaykh said "Lack of following the great Sunnah even in the center of learning?", pointing to the lack of following the Sunnah of Amama (turban) during prayer. Mawlana Abdul Malik writes in Tajalliyat that once the shaykh was in madrasah of Deoband, and at the time of Zuhr prayer, Qari Muhammad Tayyab came to lead the congregation. Shaykh Pir Qureshi and scholars of Deoband This difference of opinion is even evident in the immediate family of Pir Qureshi, where some of his grandsons follow the Deobandi school while others follow the shaykh himself and do not affiliate to the Deoband. But there are others who claim that the shaikh never followed the Deobandi school, rather merely visited the Deoband Islamic school for preaching Islam and Naqshbandi tariqa. Many of his followers follow this school and claim that the shaikh himself followed it. There are conflicting accounts from the shaikh's biography about his following the Deobandi branch of the Hanafi school of thought. Shrine of Pir Fazal Ali Qureshi at Miskeenpur He followed Hanafi school of law, and avoided the local schools of thought in India namely Deobandi Barelvi, rather followed the Naqshbandi school in all matters. He traveled to many places of Sindh and Punjab, and also traveled to (current day) India for multiple times. His biographers have written that the number of days he spent in traveling for preaching, was greater than the days he spent at home.
He lived there for the rest of his life and was buried there. Due to the hard-to-reach location of Faqirpur, he established another spiritual center named Miskeenpur Shareef in the same district, near Shahar Sultan. He established the first spiritual center (Dargah/Khanqah) named Faqirpur Shareef in 1892 AH in district Muzaffargarh, Punjab. After the death of his Shaikh, he then did second oath of allegiance with the son and successor of Khwaja Usman, Khwaja Sirajuddin Naqshbandi and received Ijazah and Khilafat from him. So he took the oath of allegiance with Sayyad Laal Shah Hamdani, who was a khalifa of Khwaja Usman. He first went to Khwaja Muhammad Usman Damani for Ba'yah, but he was too old to take new followers. He was a Shaikh of Naqshbandi Sufi order. 3.1 Shaykh Pir Qureshi and scholars of Deoband.
