SUFI SAINT NURI SHAH (R.A )
(1300 - 1361 Bengali Year)

Hazrat Shah Sufi Syed Nuri Shah @ Syed Abdul Hye (R.A.) was the eldest and the only living son of Hazrat Shah Sufi Syed Ahmed ALI @ Syed Jan Sharif Shah Sureswari (R.A.) when Hazrat Sureswari (R.A.) passed away to Allah on 18th November 1919 AD. Hazrat Nuri Shah (RA) graduated from Calcutta Alia Madrasa and became a famous Muhaddis (authority on the Trditions of Prophet SAWS) and Mufti (authority to issue Religious Decree). He was a scholar in Urdu, Arabic, Persian and Bengali laguages.

His names were given by Great Sufi Saint Rasul Noma Allama Hazrat Shah Sayed Fateh Ali Waisi (R.A) before he was born. Under the guidance of his able father he attained very high spiritual position and became a mystic saint who spoke little and disseminated universal humanistic virtues. Thus the Holy Shrine of Sureswar became a meeting place of millions of men and women, poor and rich, Muslims and Non-Muslims searching for peace and Divine Blessings.

He died on the 22nd August of the Bengali year 1361.
