The founder of the Suhrawardiyya was Abu Hafs Umar al-Suhrawardi. See Suhrawardi, The Philosophy of Illumination, ed. John Walbridge & Hossein Ziai (1999: Provo, UT. Brigham Young University), p. 166.

Renamed
I renamed to "al-Suhrawardi" from "Suhrawardi Maqdul" as the first forms seemed slightly mroe common and more "authentic". Maybe the "al" could be dropped? Flammifer 05:47, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I renamed again, from al-Suhrawardi to Shahab al-Din Suhrawardi, which seems like a better name. In the meantime, I had created other pages of people called "al-Suhrawardi". Just after moving (While looking around for double redirects), I found that Shihab al-Din Suhrawardi seems like an even more popular way of writing, even though the form with an "a" was more common on wikipedia. If someone's really bored, he can try to convince an administrator to move the page (We want to preserve the history, not just copy-paste the content). Flammifer 13:52, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
interestingly he was from the suhrawad village ,the village name itself is from sohr[red] and vard[rose].citation:iranvich,bahram frahvashi.Spitman 21:16, 12 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why
Strange bias to indicate Suhrawardi as a Iranian filosopher. He was a Persian but contributed to Islamic not Zoroastrian philosophy contrary to what this seems to imply here.~~
