The Naqvi people are an orthodox Shia community found in Iran, Iraq and South Asia claiming to be descendants of Shia Imam Ali Naqi. Conventionally, Naqvis are Sayyids, who trace their patrilineal descent from Muhammad through his grandson, Husayn ibn Ali.

Sons of Imam Ali Naqi[edit]

There are differing opinions about the number of sons of Imam Ali Al-Naqi. The statement of 7 sons has been made by Ayatullah Syed Basheer Hussain, compiler of the book Shajrate Saddate Amroha, who lists:

  1. Al-Hasan al-'Askarī
  2. His brothers:
  3. Muhammad ibn Ali al-Hadi
  4. Husayn
  5. 'Abdullāh
  6. Zayd
  7. Mūsā
  8. Ja'far ibn 'Ali al-Hādi , also known as Ja'far al-Zaki or Ja'far Ath-Thāni.

These seven names have also been referenced in the book Anwar-e-Alsadat. In addition, there are at least two people whose hand-written pedigree from the beginning (Imam Naqi) to the end have been accepted. These pedigrees confirm the sons of Imam Ali Naqi Al Hadi as seven in number.[1]

Besides Al-Hasan Al-'Askarī, three of the sons, Husayn, Muhammad and Ja'far, and one daughter named 'Ayliyā' from different wives have been mentioned by various scholars, including Shaikh Mufeed.[2][3][4][5]

Naqvis of Mohīnah[edit]

The Naqvis of Mohīnah are the descendants of 'Ali Al-Hādi from his son, Ja'far ibn Ali Al Hādi. They migrated from Iraq to Afghanistan, then on the request of Sultan Shams Ad-Dīn Altamash, migrated to Delhi. During that period, they also stayed in Multan. At that time, there were only two brothers, Sayyed Shams Ad-Dīn Naqvi and Sayyed Shāb Ad-Dīn Naqvi. The eldest son of Sayyed Shams Ad-Dīn Naqvi was Sayyed Moī'n Ad-Dīn Naqvi (Arabic:معین الدین) and also the founder of the State of Mohīnah (Arabic:موحينه) After his death, Sayyed Rāzī Ad-Dīn Ahmad Naqvi took over. His two sons, Sayyed Sarwar Tāhir Naqvi and Sayyed Bahā' Ad-Dīn Naqvi lived in Mohīnah. Sayyed Sarwar Tāhir Naqvi had six sons:

  1. Meethey
  2. Ladilay
  3. Moī'n
  4. Shams
  5. Razī
  6. Rāzī

From these six, the Mohīnah family spread and to this day, live in India and Pakistan, mostly the latter as most of the Mohīnah migrated to Pakistan after the Independence of Pakistan in 1947.
