Hasnain Baqai, also known as Shah Saheb, is an Islamic scholar. He is the patron and parts of various social, academic and other developmental activities of Sufi Sunni Muslims in India.
He was born on 26 February in Sufi City of Safipur, in a highly religious Sufi family. He is the great grand son of Syed Baqa-Ullah Shah Safvi Khadmi Chishty and the son of Syed Shah Waliullah Baqai. He is the present Gaddi-nashin of Safipur.
He has held the following offices:
Baqai disagrees with the notion of a “ Triple Talaq” divorce. He is of the view that pronouncing Triple Talaq will not render marriage void. He supported the then ruling Bharatiya Janata Party rendition of an opinion against the legality of “Triple Talaq” divorce for Muslim women, during the proceedings of the Supreme Court. [5] [6]
He held a large public meeting with Shia and Sufi religious leaders of the state of Uttar Pradesh, along with BJP's state president Swatantra Dev Singh regarding CAA, NRC in Uttar Pradesh and supported the government in favor of CAA, NRC. [7]
In an interview condemning the execution of Nimr al-Nimr in Saudi Arabia, Baqai said: “One Shia and [one] Sunni cleric were hanged just because they were raising voices for minorities’ rights and against the sheltering of terrorism by Saudi Arabia.” [8] [9]
In forums, he speaks vocally against terrorism, as he holds the belief that terrorism has no place in religion. According to him, the youth is being misled in the name of religion and it should be the responsibility of the religious leaders of every religion that the person of their religion should not fall under such mischief. [10] [11] [12]
Baqai advocated the unity of Sunni and Shia Islam. [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]
He started an agitation against the Popular Front of India, as he claims PFI. to be a threat to the Peace and Integrity of the Indian nation and because they were radicalizing Indian youth. [19] [20] [21] [22]
