Abstract
British rule in India in nineteenth and twentieth centuries was
resisted by the followers of Sayyid Ahmad Shaheed in the name of Jehad.
Seeking freedom from British domination, they based themselves in Tribal
Area now called FATA of Pakistan and continued to amass men and
matter from India surreptitiously. Fazal Elahi, one of the adherents of the
group, initially collected funds and recruits and finally assumed
leadership responsibilities at Chamarkand (Bajaur). His struggle against
the British tells the tale of Jehadi activities of that time. This article
describes as to how he turned a Mujahid and how he struggled against an imperial power.
