DATA GANJ BAKHSH
Ali Hujwiri or Dātā Ganj Bakhsh Muslim of the Indian subcontinent, was an 11th-century Ghaznian-Persian Sunni Muslim, who became famous for composing the Kashf al-maḥjūb (Unveiling of the Hidden), which is considered the "earliest formal treatise" on Sufism in Persian. Ali Hujwiri is believed to have contributed "significantly" to the spread of Islam in South Asia through his preaching, with one historian describing him as "one of the most important figures to have spread Islam in the Indian subcontinent."
BACKGROUND
Ali Hujwiri was born in Ghazni, in present-day Afghanistan, in around 1009 to Uthman ibn Ali or Bu Ali. He is a direct descendant of Prophet Muhammad through his father who was a direct descendant of Al-Imam Hasan ibn Ali. His genealogical chain goes back eight generations to Ali. Ali Hujwiri travelled "widely through the Ghaznavid Empire and beyond, spending considerable time in Baghdad, Nishapur, and Damascus, where he met many of the pre-eminent Ṣūfīs of his time." In matters of jurisprudence, he received training in the Hanafi rite of orthodox Sunni law under various teachers. As for his Sufic training, he was linked through his teacher al-Khuttalī to al-Husrī, Abu Bakr Shibli (d. 946), and Junayd of Baghdad (d. 910). For a short period of time, the mystic is believed to have lived in Iraq, where he first became wealthy but late fell into debt. His brief marriage during this period of time is said to have been unhappy. Eventually, Ali Hujwiri settled in Lahore, where he died with the reputation of a renowned preacher and teacher. His last few years, however, were not free of struggle, as he was imprisoned for some time for "the lack of the books he had left at Ghazni." After his death, Ali Hujwiri was unanimously regarded as a great saint by popular acclaim.
