Shah Waliullah" redirects here. Qutb ud-Din Ahmad ibn ʿAbd-ur-Rahim al-ʿUmari ad-Dehlawi ( ; 1703–1762), commonly known as Shah Waliullah Dehlawi (also Shah Wali Allah ), was an Islamic scholar seen by his followers as a renewer . He emphasized the importance of following Sharia and believed in the unification of Hanafi and Shafi'i schools of law, aiming to reduce legal differences. Waliullah advocated for a direct understanding of the Qur'an and promoted interpretations closest to its literal meaning, encouraging a contextual approach rather than strict adherence to a specific school.1 Encyclopedia of World Biography . "Peace in Afghanistan." (2019): 703-710. "The first significant name is Shah Waliullah (1703–62), a Hanafi scholar," Shahid, Amir Khan. He maintained the different viewpoints among the Hanafi School of thought on the subject.." Mohammad Sharif Khan, Mohammad Anwar Saleem (1994).2 Muslim Philosophy and Philosophers . Like Ibn Taymiyya, he rejected the speculative theology of Ash'ari and advocated the straightforward acceptance of God's description of Himself Muhammad Mosleh-uddin (2003). Shah Waliullah's 'Aqida was the 'aqida of Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah and especially that of early Ash'arites who were according to his opinion very nearer to Imam Ahmad bin Hunbal (d241H./855). In this matter Shah Waliullah was not pleased with the latest hair-splitter and interpreter Ash'arites... He was against all sects which are not following the Quran and Sunnah directly in the field of 'Aqida.. according to Shah Waliullah and his teacher Shaikh Abu Tahir Kurdi, Al-Ash'ari was the follower of the school of imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal (d 241H./855) in 'aqida and Imam Ibn Taimiyah's (d.728 H./1328) 'aqida was the same 'aqida. : CS1 maint: publisher location ( link ) Geaves, Ron.

In his resistance to rigid loyalty to the madhhabs, his critique of the excesses of Sufism and his rejection of Ash'ari speculative theology, Ibn Taymiyya brought together important strains of iconoclastic opposition to the powerful medieval institutions of Islamic thought. Shah Wali Allah devoted a treatise to defending him and praised him as one of the great scholars of Sunni Islam.4 "Shah Waliullah al-Dehlawi: Thoughts and Contributions" : 1 .
