On Allah Subhan hu Ta’ala’s command when He announced,(Kadami Hazihi Ala Raqbati Kulli Waliullah } ‘My foot rests over the shoulders of all the Saints of Allah’.

His Holiness was The 11th descendant of Syedena Rasool e Akram Muhammad Mustafa (S.A.W.S), and the originator of the Quaderia Sufi Order.

Descendants of Huzur Syedena Gaus e Pak (A.S)’s traveled to different parts of the world and propagated the Quaderia Sufi Order enlightening the human souls to the righteous path.

The magnificent landmark of Midnapur known as Jora Masjid in Mirza Mohalla is a place of blessings for everyone. Every year on as of Bengali Calendar 4th Falgun (16th/17th Feb) the Urs is celebrated with ever increasing scale as more and more people throng this centre of faiz o barkat (grace and blessings).

 

Ala Huzur Pak’s son Hazrat Syed Shah Murshed Ali Al Quaderi (AS) who is admitted and accepted as Maula Pak ornamented the Order further in Midnapore having set up a Khanka Sharif, a place of worship and congregation for the Muridaan and followers of Huzur Gaus e Pak.

He has extended the divine light in the form of Tareequa e Quaderia to millions of mureeds and visitors who have been benefited in all possible manners.

This divine blessing also reaches the needy through his younger brother, His Holiness Syed Shah Rowaishad Ali Al Quaderi, also known as ‘Choto Huzur Pak Quebla’ and ‘Choto Huzur Pak’s ’ son His Holiness Syed Shah Yasoob Ali Al Quaderi, also known as ‘Shahzada Huzur Pak Quebla . It is their incessant contemplation and active participation through myriad interactions with the followers which has metamorphosed the lives bringing about moral and social upliftment in lives of  all souls in proximity of these divine souls .
