Maulana Syed Ibne Hasan Nunahrvi was renowned for his oratory and [[Urdu]] language speeches. He was a pious and sincere scholar with tremendous control over religious matters and reciting [[majlis]].<ref name="alqaem"/>

Maulana Nunahrvi learned the art of oratory from his teacher Allama [[Syed Sibte Hasan Naqvi]], who was the pioneer of the format of majalis which are recited to the present day.<ref name="alqaem"/> Before their time, majalis in Lucknow and other places contained [[marsiya]], recited by great poets like [[Mir Anis|Meer Babbar Ali Anees]] and [[Dabeer|Mirza Dabeer]]. The new format had [[khutba]] in [[Arabic]], some [[tafseer]] with ''fazail'' of [[Ahlul Bayt]] lastly ''masaeb'' of [[Battle of Karbala|Karbala]].<ref name="alqaem"/><ref name="yaimam"/>

He was also considered the best orator of the topic of [[Isra and Mi'raj|meraj]] and the battles of Islam (involving [[Military career of Muhammad|Muhammad]] & [[Military career of Ali|Ali]]). His description of the battlefield and meraj had such an effect on people that the description was said to take the imagination of the listener into the event itself. He traveled a lot and was able to recite a single majalis for 4 hours, not repeating the same topic twice. His vocabulary, control over [[Persian language|Persian]], [[Urdu]],<ref name="alqaem"/> and [[Arabic]] languages, and usage of exemplary sentences with proper ''qafia ''and continuous flow with ''"Gul o Bulbul"'', control over his audience<ref name="alqaem"/> and making topics interesting made him extremely popular and known all over the sub-continent.

Many of his followers used to travel long distance to listen to his majalis and had great affection for his recitations.
