Ashraf Ali Thanwi (often referred as Hakimul Ummat^[a]^[5] and Mujaddidul Millat^[b] (19 August 1863 – 20 July 1943) was a late-nineteenth and twentieth-century Sunni Muslim scholar, jurist, thinker, reformist and the revival of classical Sufi thought from Indian subcontinent during the British Raj,^[6]^[7] one of the chief proponents of Pakistan Movement.^[5] He was a central figure of Islamic spiritual, intellectual and religious life in South Asia and continues to be highly influential today.^[5] As a prolific author, he completed over a thousand works including Bayan Ul Quran and Bahishti Zewar.^[5] He graduated from Darul Uloom Deoband in 1883 and moved to Kanpur, then Thana Bhawan to direct the Khanqah-i-Imdadiyah, where he resided until the end of his life.^[5] His training in Quran, Hadith, Fiqh studies and Sufism qualified him to become a leading Sunni authority among the scholars of Deoband.^[8] His teaching mixes Sunni orthodoxy, Islamic elements of belief and the patriarchal structure of the society.^[8] He offered a sketch of a Muslim community that is collective, patriarchal, hierarchical and compassion-based.^[8]
