Chishtia Sufi Order is one of the oldest Sufi Orders in Islamic mystic
tradition, originating primarily from Chisht (Herat, Afghanistan), and
gained popularity in both Afghanistan and the Indian Subcontinent
due to its cosmopolitan message of love, tolerance, and openness.
Especially in Indian region it attracted the Hindu masses
overwhelmingly and resultantly a large segment of lower caste
Hindus embraced Islam. This phenomenon was further consolidated
with the untiring efforts of Chishti Mashaikh who established a wellorganized and systematic Khanqahi System (earliest forms of world’s
spiritual universities), which in turn gave way to a new genre of
Hindu-Muslim relations, which are required to be re-enlivened in
order to establish peace in the South Asian Region. The study in hand
revolves around the hypothesis that “if Chishti experience of the past
is made relevant to the modern day socio-political and cultural fabric
of the region, the peace will be the only outcome of the situation”.
Findings of the study suggest that Chishtia Sufi tradition is
equivocally relevant even today in order to create good relations
with the Hindus of the region.
