Introduction to Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust

Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust is a non-political, non-sectarian, non-government organization (NGO) founded in 1980 by Qibla-e-Alam, Syedi wa Murshadi, Peer-e-Tareeqat Sahibzada Sheikh Sultan Fiaz-ul-Hassan Sarwari Qadri (a direct Descendant of Sultan-ul-Arifeen Hazrat Sheikh Sultan Bahu – Rahmatullahi Alay). Sheikh Sultan Fiaz-ul-Hassan S. Qadri is regarded as the trusts patron, spiritual founder and leader. The trusts headquarter is based at Darbar Hazrat Sultan Bahu (Rahmatullahi Alay) in District Jhang, Pakistan and in Birmingham UK. It has grown and has establishment worldwide.

The Trust has been established on the name of honourable saint, eminent scholar and Sufi poet Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Muhammad Bahu (Rahmatullahi Alay), whose teachings and poetry are a Bourse of guidance for the whole of the world and people from different walk of life. Sahibzada Sultan Fiaz-ul-Hassan says he felt the needs to establish Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust because, after studying the work and efforts of the society, he concluded that a huge effort is required to improve the bitter condition of our society, to lead & guide the youth (future of tomorrow) to the right path, who are going astray because of economic imbalance, improve poverty which is leading to child-labour, narrow the gap of rich and poor, proper care for the disable as they are being disregarded in our society. Moreover, all this is due to lack of education and understanding of the comprehensive and global message of the Beloved Prophet Muhammad (Sall Allahu Alayhi Wasallam).

It aim is to revive the message of the Holy Quran and Prophetic teachings in the light of the modern and moderate interpretation.

Furthermore, it also aims to emphasis towards increasing Islamic education (Islamic way of life and character), health, social services, religious betterment and presenting a realistic and true picture of Islam throughout the world. The Trust also value on National Integration and Islamic ideology, literary, improvement of rural and urban environment.

The first project undertaken by Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust was Jamia-tul-Hira at Darbar Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahu (Rahmatullahi Alay) in Jhang Pakistan.

The purpose behind Jamia-tul-Hira was to teach the secular subjects alongside the process of Islamization within an Islamic environment. Initially the school was established at middle school level but has recently been upgraded to college status and soon will be established as an international university. Many thousands of students have passed through the free educational system in place at Darbar Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahu (Rahmatullahi Alay) and today the college is full of life as needy and poor students from around the region come to seek knowledge.

In 1981 Sahibzada Sultan Fiaz ul Hassan Qadri conducted his first spiritual journey to the UK where hundreds of Muhibeen (lovers) came to welcome them at Heathrow airport. They realized the yearning and potential for knowledge and understanding of Islam within the UK and after offering the Baith to many hundreds of Mureeds through the years in 1983 they established Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust in the populous city of Birmingham.

Today Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust has established as a key institution of knowledge of Islam and a key figure of community work within Birmingham. It has branches all over the world including UK, America, Athens, Abu Dhabi, Hong Kong, Norway, Denmark, Brussels, Italy, Rotterdam, Amsterdam and over 190 centres in Pakistan including Jamia Al-Hiraa Al-Islamiyya, Al-Hira Academy and the ongoing International University Project is in final stages.

Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust is flourishing throughout the world and the teachings of Hazrat Sheikh Sakhi Sultan Bahu (Rahmatullahi Alay) are being illuminated in the hearts of many thousands of Mureeds throughout the world.

We make Dua to Allah Almighty that Hazrat Sultan Bahu Trust continuous his struggle and furthers spreads the true teachings of Islam under the supervision of Sahibzada Sheikh Sultan Fiaz ul Hassan Qadri.
