Syed Yousuf Al-Moosavi Al-Safavi (1904 – 29 August 1982) (Urdu: آغا سید یوسف الموسوی الصفوی) was a Kashmiri religious scholar and leader of Shia Muslims.
He is a descendant of Mir Shamsuddin Araki, who came to Kashmir in the 13th century from the town of Arak in Markazi Province, Iran.
He established an educational institution for Islamic learning called Madras-e Babul Ilem ("gateway of knowledge") in Budgam.
It is the practice among Shias of Kashmir to go to their religious head (Mawlawi or Agas) for legal disputes instead of to government courts.
Aga Syed Yousef established Anjumane Sharie Shian in Jammu and Kashmir with both religious and political goals.
Just as the government receives taxes from the general public, Anjuman Sharie Shian collects khums and fitr as alms from the Shia population to spend on social, educational and economic improvement for the poorer segment of the community.
