First ever research article published in the West on Nanawtawi’s Corpus, Introducing intellectual and theological roots of Deobandi School
Dr. Atif Suhail Siddiqui, President of DIIT attended Yale University as a Visiting Fellow from 2018-19. He has ultimately produced a research work. His paper, titled Theological and Intellectual Roots in Deobandi Thoughts: A Paradigm from Muhammad Qāsim Nānawtawī's Discourses with Special Reference to his Ḥujjat al-Islām is focused on the recondite writings of Deoband Seminary's founder Muhammad Qasim Al-Nanawtawi. Such kind of the research work was waited for decades. It is believed that this work shall introduce a new area of study in Islamic/religious Studies.
Scholars at Deoabnd have praised this work. Dr. Shakaib Qasmi, Deputy Rector of Darul Uloom Waqf Deoband (parallel institute of DarulUloom Deoband) has seen this publication as a new area of study for the students and researchers in religious and Islamic studies. In his appreciation note he wrote that “a credit goes to Dr. Siddiqui, he has successfully introduced Nanawtawi’s discourse into the West.”
After the successful publication in IIIT’s research journal, Dr. Siddiqui thanked Prof Dr. Frank Griffel, who supervised the project at Yale University. Dr. Siddiqui also thanked Maulana Amin Kholwadia, Director, Darul Qasim, Glandle Hights, IL, USA and Mufti Yasir Nadeem al-Wajidi, Director at DIIT and lecturer at Institute of Islamic Education, Elgin, IL, USA for their support and help. These two gentlemen helped Dr. Siddiqui inreading some parts of the complex text of Nanawtawi’s literature.
