Mahdavia ((アラビア語: مهدوي ) ''mahdawi'') or Mahdavism, is a Mahdiist Muslim sect founded by Syed Muhammad Jaunpuri in India in the late 15th century. ''Jaunpuri'' declared himself to be Imam Mahdi at the holy city of Mecca, right in front of Kaaba (between rukn and maqam) in the Hijri year 901(10th Hijri), and is revered as such by Mahdavia community and Zikri Mahdavis in Balochistan. == Beliefs == Mahdavis are found in most parts of India, Pakistani provinces of Sindh and Balochistan, Farah in Afghanistan, Khorasan in Iran, besides some parts of central Asian countries. Syed Muhammed Jaunpuri (AS) declared himself to be Mahdi, and as such "a caliph of Allah". He claimed to teach the true inner meaning of the Qur'an and strictly adhere to the ''Sunnah'' of Muhammad (abū al-Qāsim ibnʿAbd Allāh). Jaunpuri's declaration was ignored by the ulema of Mecca, but after he repeated his declaration in Gujarat, he gained a group of followers and established a line of caliphs who led the movement after his death. After Jaunpuri's death in 1505, the Mahdavi movement went through a militant phase, lasting during the reign of the first five Mahdavi caliphs. The movement was persecuted under the Gujarati sultan Muzaffar II (r. 1511–1526). The second Mahdavi caliph, Bandagi Miyan Syed Khundmir led an army against Muzaffar and was killed in 1523. After Jesus' failure to re-appear in that year, the movement lost much of its fervor and entered a "quietist" phase, which lasted throughout the 17th century. In the 18th century, the movement mostly died out in northern India.〔Timothy R. Furnish, (Holiest Wars: Islamic Mahdis, their Jihads, and Osama bin Laden ), Greenwood Publishing Group, 2005, pp 38–41.〕 After the 1799 siege of Seringapatam, the British government invited the Mahdavis to re-settle in Mysore.〔L. K. A. Iyer, '' The Mysore: Tribes and Castes'', Vol IV (1930), (p. 383 ): "the benign British government issued a proclamation assuring peace and inviting all the Mahdavis to the territory of Mysore to resettle there, and they then settled in different places after their exile."〕 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「Mahdavia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
