Role of Indian Mujahids in the Revolt of 1857

Abstract | This study explores the crucial role of the Indian Mujahids in the historic Revolt of 1857. Though British authorities branded them as "Indian Wahabis," they were, in truth, devoted followers of the eminent Islamic reformer Shah Waliullah Dehlavi. The movement was ideologically shaped by his son, Shah Abdul Aziz Dehlavi, who courageously declared India a Dar al-Harb (Abode of War), justifying armed resistance against British rule. This call to jihad, born out of a passionate resolve to end colonial domination, found a charismatic leader in Sayyid Ahmad Berelvi. Under his guidance, his disciples waged a determined struggle against British imperialism, sustaining the flame of resistance well into the 19th century. |
