Naugawan Sadat
Naugawan Sadat, the Proud Heart of India's Oldest Syed Community
Naugawan Khurd was founded in 948 A.H. (1541 A.D.) by Maulana Syed Fakhruddin, the son of Maulana Mohammad Imam, who is buried in Delhi and was the Sajjad Nashin of Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulia. According to Qari Sahab, the area originally known as Naugawan Kalan dates back to 820 A.H. (1417 A.D.). To the north lies Vazirabad, now known as Amroha. Maulana Fakhruddin and his brother Maulana Jalaluddin came to this region as Islamic preachers and were quite successful in their mission. Their descendants have since settled here, and the population has grown into the thousands, with many members migrating to different parts of the world.
There are many places to visit, including Husaini Chowk, Panjaitani Gate, Karbala, Mazar Maulana Fakhruddin in Kakrali, Mazar Maulana Jalaluddin in Belowale, Mazar Syed Moosa at Hafta Bazar, Mazar and Imambada Daulat Shaheed, Mazar Peer Shahabuddin (Bhure Peer), Mazar Kaudiyawale in Naher Nai Basti, Madarsa Babul Ilm in Shahfreed, Budh Bazar (a famous weekly market), Mangal Bazar (an animal market), and Islam Nagar.
Naugawan Sadat offers easy access for visitors and residents, with bus and auto services linking the town to Amroha Railway Station (15 km), Chandpur Railway Station (20 km), and New Delhi Railway Station (146 km).
Shajra Naugawan Sadat
The majority of Sadat in Naugawan Sadat trace their
lineage back to the fourth Imam, Zainul Abedin (as),
belonging to the Abdi branch. Others in the community
are of Zaidi and Naqvi descent. This heritage, linked to
the family of Prophet Muhammad’s daughter, that is why
the town is known as Naugawan Sadat.
The
genealogy of the Sadat community was originally written
by
Qari Syed Ali Husain Sahab
and then compiled by
Maulana Ansar Husain Sajid Sahab in
1964. Recently, it has been updated and recompiled by
Syed Shoeb Raza Abdi, son of Tahir Raza,
in Bandra, Bombay (India), with contributions from the
original author and recent data gathered by
Syed Tanveerul Hasan Abdi in Delhi.
The compilation of the Shajra is nearing
completion, with ongoing verifications of names from the
community in Naugawan Sadat. Those who have not yet
submitted their names are encouraged to do so through
our form.
