Abul Hasanat Sayyid Abdullah Shah Naqshbandi Qadiri (6 February 1872–27 August 1964) also known as Hadrat Abdullah Shah Sahib, was a scholar of Islam and spiritual reformer.[1] He is more particularly known as a muhaddith[broken anchor], honorifically as Muhaddith-e Dakkan (the Muhaddith of the Dakkan).[2][3] His contributions to Islamic scholarship and spirituality have left a lasting impact. His scholarly contributions include extensive writings on Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) and his best-known work, Zujajat al-Masabih, which is a comprehensive collection of Hadiths aligned with the Hanafi school of law, compiled into five volumes.[4][5][6]
