Muhammadullah Hafezzi

Muḥammadullāh ibn Idrīs ibn Akram ad-Dīn al-Miyānjī (Arabic: محمد الله بن إدريس بن أكرم الدين الميانجي;[1] ‎1895 – 6 May 1987), commonly known as Hafezzī Huzūr (Arabic: حافظجي حضور, Bengali: হাফেজ্জী হুজুর), was a Bangladeshi politician, Islamic leader and founder of the Bangladesh Khilafat Andolan.

Muhammadullah's grandfather, Akramuddin Mianji, was a disciple of Ghazi Imamuddin Bengali, a khalifa (spiritual successor) of Syed Ahmad Shaheed in Bengal.

[11] Hafezzi Huzur expressed opposition to the 1982 coup d'état, labelling Hussain Muhammad Ershad's military rule as un-Islamic.

[14] This action was a part of a campaign to rename places named after anti-independence individuals, suggested by the Bangladesh High Court.

[15] Eyewitness accounts on the other hand, suggest that Hafezzi Huzur expressed support for the Bangladesh Liberation War referring to the Pakistan Army as oppressors.

[16] Mawlana Imdadul Haq Araihazari also states that his involvement as a Bengali freedom fighter is due to Hafezzi Huzur's expression of support.
