The Suhrawardy family with over nine hundred years of recorded history has been one of the oldest leading noble families and political dynasties of the Indian subcontinent and is regarded as an important influencer during the Bengali Renaissance.[1][2] The family has produced many intellectuals who have contributed substantially in the fields of politics, education, literature, art, poetry, socio-religious and social reformation. Numerous members of the family, both biological descendants and those married into the family, have had prolific careers as politicians, lawyers, judges, barristers, artists, academicians, social workers, activists, writers, public intellectuals, ministers, educationists, statesmen, diplomats and social reformers.[1]

Family history

The family origin can be traced back to the 11th Century Iranian philosopher and writer Abu al-Najib Suhrawardi, who founded the Suhrawardiyya Sufi order and the dynasty in 1118 A.D. The family gets its name from Shorevard, a city in Iran where Najib took birth, learnt, preached and eventually founded the Sufi order.[3] The family line continued through Shihab al-Din 'Umar al-Suhrawardi, one of whose grandsons migrated to Multan in 1207 during the Mamluk rule in India, making the Suhrawardys first of the Sufis to come to India even before the Chistis. The family has produced many philosophers and saints since then who were greatly revered by the Mamluks, as they played a major role in consolidating the position of the empire in Multan through their preachings.[3] Bahauddin Zakaria Suhrawardi declared Iltutmish as the lawful successor of Qutubuddin Aibak which helped Iltutmish in securing his rule in the sub-continent, causing his enemies such as Nasir-ud-din Qabacha to retreat. That very year, Iltutmish awarded Bahauddin Zakaria with the title of "Sheikh ul Islam".[4] The Suhrawardis received the royal patronage too. The subsequent successive Sultans of Delhi remained loyal to the Suhrawardis, including Alauddin Khilji who received Sheikh Ruknuddin Suhrawardi personally at Delhi gate and kissed his feet as a mark of respect. The dargaah of Makhdoom Yahya Maneri Suhrawardi, another scion of this family was frequently visited by Babur, Bahlol Lodi and later by Sher Shah Suri. The Tuglaqs too greatly admired the Suhrawardys, the Tomb of Shah Rukn-e-Alam, the grandson of Bahauddin Zakariya Suhrawardi was commissioned and built by Ghias ud din Tuglaq in 1324 A.D, who was a humble follower of the former and used to visit him often in Multan.[3][5]

The founder of the Nizam Shahi dynasty of Hyderabad, Deccan, Nizam-ul-Mulk, Asaf Jah I (1724) too has descended from the Bayanfandi clan of the Suhrawardi dynasty.[6]

The Bengali Suhrawardys are the descendants of the Shiraaji clan of this Suhrawardi dynasty, who migrated from Multan to Bengal in the 15th Century, when Bengal was ruled by the Hussain Shahi dynasty. Much of their early history is evidently synonymous with the history of the Suhrawardiyya order. The family however has been known since the medieval times in East India for its piety, wisdom, forthrightness, religious and socio political reformations, which they brought by playing a key role in influencing the politics in Bengal until the death of Sirajuddin Shah Suhrawardy, who was closely involved with the Ashfar dynasty, Sharfunnesa Begum Sahiba and Nawab Siraj ud Daulah, the last independent Nawab of Bengal. It was only after the Battle of Plassey in 1757, that the family officially found itself in a situation where it could no longer play a role in influencing the machinations of the monarchical politics in Bengal, hence the family briefly turned to mysticism. Until Ubaidullah al Ubaidi Suhrawardy rose to prominence and overturned the family's fortune, as a result of which the family soon found its place back in the political arena.[7] Ubaidullah did not consider himself a mystic and turned away from the family traditions to establish a new legacy altogether, thus making his father Shah Aminuddin Suhrawardy the last Sufi Pir of this dynasty.[1] Ubaidullah's children, grand children, great grandchildren and successive generations all grew up to play major roles in administration and politics and made significant contributions in the field of art, literature, law and social reformation, making their family, British Bengal's most prominent family and subsequently one of the most exceptionally illustrious families of the Indian subcontinent[1]

Family background

The Suhrawardys are Ashrafs (high born Muslims) and the direct descendants of the first Caliph of Islam, Abu Bakr (573 A.D - 634 A.D) and are hence of Arab decent.[1][8] However, their ancestor, Saad Bin Al Hassan migrated from Arab to Sohrevard in Iran in 812 A.D., to save himself from incurring the wrath of the Caliph, Al Amin on a matter of principle, during the fourth fitna civil war (811 - 813 A.D.). In Iran, his great great great great grandchild, Abu al-Najib Suhrawardi established the Suhrawardiyya Sufi order, dynasty and family in 1118 A.D, hence the Suhrawardys have a significant Iranian heritage too. They came to the Indian subcontinent in 1207 A.D. to expand the Suhrawardiyya Sufi order and settled in Multan, from where the Shiraaji Suhrawardys migrated to Bengal in the 15th century to popularize the ideas of Sufism in the East. The subsequent generations were thus endowed with a mix of Arab, Iranian and Indian heritages.[9]

There are numerous exhaustive Persian annals that throws light on the early history of the Suhrawardys. The records mention, Nahur, one of the dynasty's earliest known ancestor to have originated from the Mesopotamian civilization, who used to live in the city of Ur back in 6400 B.C. during the Ubaid period.[1]

The Bengal renaissance of the 19th century was an extraordinary period of societal transformation in the fields of arts, literature, culture, music, politics, administration and education. The Bengal Renaissance was the culmination of the process of emergence of the cultural characteristics of the Bengali people that had started in the age of Alauddin Hussain Shah (1493–1519) under whose rule the Suhrawardys came to Bengal from Multan. This revolution, however, lasted for around three centuries, and had a tremendous impact on the Bengali society. It was also during this remarkable period, that the saying "What Bengal thinks today, India thinks tomorrow" resonated throughout the rest of India. This time frame coincided with the resurrection of the Suhrawardy family and the rise of the Tagore family.[1]

"No contemporary Muslim family at that time had produced such an array of outstanding scholars, educationists, lawyers (barristers), public servants and politicians at the same time. The multifaceted accomplishments and preponderance of the Suhrawardy family in the socio-cultural-political milieu of colonial Bengal and by extension of India prior to the partition in 1947, and in certain cases thereafter, was simply unparalleled in the modern history of our subcontinent." ~Waqar A Khan, founder of Bangladesh forum for heritage studies.[1]

The Suhrawardy family just like the Tagore family attained prominence during this period mostly because of their unusual social positioning between the Indians and the European influences. Both the families dominated the fields of arts, education, public service and politics of that period.[1]

Begum Badar un nissa Akhtar: Badrun nissa was the only daughter of Amin Suhrawardy and hence the only surviving grandchild of Ubaidullah Al Ubaidi Suhrawardy and his second wife.

Sayeed's father Atharuddin Mohammed was the feudal lord of Madhi, the Diwan of the princely state of Dhenkanal and one of early members of Utkal Sabha (the organisation which fought for the unification of Odia speaking provinces). However, after, Sayeed's untimely death in 1922, Badrun nissa was debarred from the family title and property as per the Mehroom al Mariaz tradition of Islamic Shariat. Hence Badrun nissa gave her children, her father's (Amin Suhrawardy's) name and thus the family assumed its surname "Amin". Badrun nissa like many of her female forebears, worked for the upliftment of the community with a special focus on female education. She later joined as a teacher in Ravenshaw Girls High school, becoming the first muslim woman in Odisha to do so.

The family however sided with Congress, carrying forward the legacy of their paternal primogenitors. The most prominent among whom was Afzal ul Amin, who served as the general secretary of Utkal Pradesh Congress Committee and was a politician and statesman of the Congress party. Since the family, over generations had put efforts to create a separate Odisha province, they remained emotionally attached to their motherland and hence became one of the few branches of the Suhrawardy family who chose not to migrate to Pakistan, following the partition of India in 1947.[19]

Afzal ul Amin: was the youngest son of Badarun nissa and a renowned politician who won the municipal elections continuously from 1952 to 1980.[19] He later served as the Chairman of Municipal corporation.

Afzal ul married his second cousin, Syeda Roshanara Amin (née Akhtar Qadriyyah), the younger daughter of Ibrahim Suhrawardy. He has two daughters; the eldest, Tabasum Sultana, married the notable writer and politician, Hussain Rabi Gandhi.
