Maulana Syed Shahabuddin Salfi Firdausi (Urdu: مولانا سید شہاب الدین سلفی فردوسی‎) (born 01 March 1956) is an Islamic scholar, author and peace activist.[1][2][3] He wrote several books including biography of Prophet Muhammad in Urdu.[4][5]

Early life

Maulana Shahabuddin was born in 1956 in a village of Darbhanga in a religious family. Shaikh Tajuddin Madari Darbhangwi, an elderly Sufi of Bihar is one of his ancestor. He completed his studies from Islamic Seminary Darul Uloom Ahmadiyya Salafia, Darbhanga, Bihar in 1971. In the year 1981 he wrote a small book named 'Meri Namaz' after moving to Solapur.[1][6]

Works

Maulana Syed Shahabuddin Salfi Firdausi has founded the Athar Blood Bank under a public trust 'Athar Minorities Social and Welfare Association' at Solapur. The Bank was inaugrated by Mr. Sushil Kumar Shinde then Minister of Power (India) on June 02, 2012.[1][7][8] He also built a mosque 'Masjid-ul-Salam' in Ambedkar Nagar, Solapur.[1]

He authored following books,

  • Meri Namaz, a booklet on the method of performing Salat.
  • Seerat e Badr-ud-Duja[5][1], a biography of Prophet Muhammad.
  • Talaq Talaq Talaq[9], a book detailing Nikah (Marriage), Talaq (Divorce) and Halala in Islam.

Maulana Firdausi is very vocal about social issues and oppression of women in Muslim society and denounced triple talaq and halala, calling them un-Islamic and instrument to oppress the women.[10][11]

Asghar Ali Engineer lauded the role played by Maulana Firdausi during the Solapur riots happened in October 2002. In 'Secular Perspective' November 2002 issue, he wrote, "It should also be mentioned here that the role played by Maulana Shahabuddin Salafi was very laudable. He restrained the Muslim youth in Saharnagar area and Asranagar area otherwise the Muslims would have suffered far more damage. The Muslim youth were quite violent in their behaviour. It was restraint and wisdom exercised by the Maulana and also Police Commissioner Mr. More that saved the situation. The Maulana also protected many Hindu lives in these areas."[12][13][14]
