    Want to know more about the history of the nehtaur ? Visit the "Nehtaur" club at facebook, http://www.facebook.com/pages/nehtaur/277976268955?ref=ts SYEDS OF NEHTAUR - A LITTLE GLIMPSE IN HISTORY Most of the Syeds of Nehtor are descendents of Syed Kamaluddin Tirmizi, r.a., who migrated to India in 587 AH/1191 AD for preaching Islam in the Subcontinent, as had many other Aulias done at that time, such as Khawaja Moinuddin Chisti Gharibnawaz Aulia, r.a. At that time, Shahabuddin Ghouri was preparing for his First raid on India. When Shahabuddin learnt about Kamaluddin Tirmizi’s, r.a. plans of also going to India, he offered him to travel under his protection. Kamaluddin Tirmizi r.a., however declined the offer, saying that “Our missions are different. You are going there to conquer land; and my intentions are to propagate the teaching of Islam to the habitants”. Kamaluddin Tirmizi, however directed one of his ELEVEN sons, Mir Malik Syed Ibrahim Shah to join Shahabuddin Ghori. Shahabuddin Ghori was defeated by the then ruler of Delhi, Prithivi Raj Chauhan. Although his forces captured the Hansi Fort (100 miles West of Panipat and about 130 miles West of Delhi on Delhi-Hisar-Sirsa Road), however Mir Malik Syed Ibrahim Shah attained Shahadat, and was buried within the Fort premises (South West area), where, reportedly, it still exists and is known as Nishanchi’s Mazar. Shahabuddin again returned to India in 1192 after preparing for one year and defeated Prithivi Raj Chauhan in the second battle of Tarain and, subsequently, became the first Muslim ruler to conquer Delhi and establish a Muslim rule in India. He was very happy to find Kamaluddin r.a. well settled and in his honour gave him land in Sialgarh in Karnal. Subsequently Kamaluddin Tirmizi r.a. settled down in Kaithal, where he is buried. Most sons of Kamaluddin r.a. spread themselves throughout the length and breadth if India on preaching mission, as follows: 1. Mir Jalaluddin Ghazi………………………….……Rohaikhand. 2. Mir Syed Hissamuddin.…………………………. Kaithal 3. Mir Syed Rukunuddin……………………….…… Ahmadabad, Gujrat. 4. Mir Syed Saeeduddin……………………………. Batan, Madras. 5. Mir Syed Azizuddin………………………….…… Nehtor. 6. Mir Syed Aleemuddin…………………………… Qannouj. 7. Mir Malik Syed Ibrahim Shah………………... With Shahabuddin Ghouri. 8. Mir Syed Nizamuddin……………………….….. Unknown. 9. Mir Syed Naseeruddin………………………….. Tir Hat, Sylhet. 10. Mir Syed Naatuddin….……………………...... Kaithal. 11. Mir Syed Qutubuddin…………........………. Kaithal Subsequently the ruler made Syed Jalaluddin Ghazi (the eldest son), or one of his descendents, who were settled in Rohailkhand, a Chaar-Hazari (In those days the King kept a nominal army. Suitable individuals were awarded land – usually comprising of a number of villages – and they were required provide a designated number of fully equipped soldiers – usually under the individual’s command – whenever the King required. Such nominees were know as Seh-Hazari (3000), Char-Hazari (4000), Panj-Hazari (5000)………..Das-Hazari (10000), etc). One of the descendents of Syed Jalaluddin Ghazi, Syed Ziauddin (also known as Syed Haya Shaheed) –also a Chaar-Hazari, was killed while on a mission to quell Rohilla uprising. He was buried in Doaba, Allahbad. His mazar is known as Mazar-e-Haya Shaheed, where, reportedly, people bring their sick, particularly children for healing and return satisfied. Son of Ziauddin, Syed Hasan, relinquished the Char-Hazari title/commitment and shifted to and settled down permanently in Mohalla Teergran of Nehtor. Though Syeds lived in Nehtor before his arrival, but most of the current Saadaat-e-Nehtor comprises of his descendant. He is popularly referred to as Syed Hasan Nehtori. Notes: 1. This has been taken from a Shajra record which is more than 200 years old.
