Why did the Muslim leaders start the Wahabi Movement ?
Answers
Answer:
The Wahabi movement offered the most serious and well-planned challenge to British supremacy in India from the 1830's to 1860's. Initially, the Wahabi movement directed itself against the Sikhs in Punjab. It was a revivalist movement which tried to purify Islam by eliminating all the un-Islamic practices which had crept into Muslim society through the ages. Syed Mir Nisar Ali, popularly known as Titu Mir, was the leader of the Wahabi Movement in India.
