Shaikh-ul-Mashaik Pyaromir Maheboob Khan (1887–1948) was born in Baroda, India. An Indian classical musician and younger brother of Hazrat Inayat Khan, he became the representative of the International Sufi Movement on the latter's death in 1927. ==Life== Their grandfather Maula Bakhsh recognized his ability in improvisation and trained him in music with Inayat. As he grew up Maheboob was exposed more to European music than Inayat had been, he conducted and took some interest in Western musical theory. When Inayat began to travel from Baroda, he entrusted his musical students to Maheboob, but when Inayat sailed to the West in 1910 Maheboob Khan accompanied him.〔The Columbia Sourcebook of Muslims in the United States by Edward E. Curtis IV. Columbia University Press 2007 ISBN 0-231-13956-X p. 48〕 He settled in The Hague, marrying a Dutch disciple, Shadbiy van Goens, who bore him two children, Raheemunnisa and Mahmood. In Europe, Maheboob learned musical composition and singing with composer and musicologist Edmond Bailly.〔Indian Music and the West by Gerry Farrell.

Published Taylor & Francis, 2000 ISBN 0-8240-4946-2 p. 563〕 Maheboob had a particularly strong voice, but Maheboob, musical, intelligent, thoughtful and retiring, would rarely sing for others. There is a story that Inayat and his brother Ali Khan would sometimes pretend to go out, slamming the front door, then wait quietly in the front hall to hear Maheboob practise his singing. He composed more than 60 sacred songs. Barbara Blatherwick, the coloratura soprano, performed his songs in her recital in 1937 at the New York Town Hall.〔(The New York Times. January 6, 1937 )〕 Maheboob composed a song on a sacred poem by Inayat Khan ('Before You judge.') but could not bring himself to show it to his brother who died without having heard it. Upon the passing of Hazrat Inayat Khan in 1927, Maheboob Khan took the responsibility of leading the International Sufi Movement,〔Sufism and the 'Modern' in Islam (Library of Modern Middle East Studies) by Martin van Bruinessen and Julia Day Howell.

He kept the Sufi message through the difficulties of WW2 time and is remembered with love, respect and gratitude.A time over than 12 years hadbeen sent on the making of 'Mughal-e- Azam'. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maheboob Khan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
