Usicho Kijua Kumhusu Mwenye Baba*Historia ya Mwanachuoni Sayyid Ahmad Badawy- Shk Said Ali Hasan

This video, titled "Usicho Kijua Kumhusu Mwenye Baba", features a detailed biographical account of the renowned Islamic scholar Sayyid Ahmad Badawy (popularly known as Mwenye Baba), as told by Sheikh Said Ali Hasan. The speaker highlights the scholar's lineage, education, and his vast contributions to Islamic scholarship in East Africa. Below is a detailed summary: 1. Lineage and Birth [00:57] Ancestry: Sayyid Ahmad Badawy comes from a long line of esteemed scholars and "Walii" (saints) that trace back to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). The speaker quotes the famous Meccan scholar Sayyid Muhammad bin Alawi al-Maliki, who recognized this noble lineage. Date of Birth: He was born in 1939 (1358 AH) [02:17]. The Name "Mwenye Baba": He was born on the same day his father, Sayyid Ahmad Badawy (the elder), passed away. His older siblings agreed to name him after their father, leading to the nickname "Mwenye Baba" (the one with the father's name) [05:46]. 2. Early Life and Education [07:08] Local Upbringing: He was raised and educated primarily in Lamu by his family and local scholars. Travels for Knowledge: At the age of 19, he traveled to Zanzibar and Dar es Salaam. In Zanzibar, he met and learned from great scholars such as Habib Omar bin Sumit and Sheikh Suleiman al-Alawi [07:40]. Scholarship without Traveling Abroad: Interestingly, the Sheikh notes that Sayyid Ahmad Badawy did not study in traditional Arab centers like Egypt or Yemen. Instead, his deep mastery of the Arabic language and Islamic sciences was attained locally, a testament to the high level of scholarship present in East Africa at the time [13:13]. 3. Literary and Scholarly Contributions [10:47] Writing vs. Speaking: While some scholars are known only for speaking, Sayyid Ahmad Badawy is a master of both. He has authored numerous books across various Islamic disciplines, some of which are used as curriculum in madrasas [11:19]. Poetry (Kasida): He is a gifted poet in both Arabic and Swahili. The speaker mentions that he has collected nearly 100 of the scholar's poems in a collection called Diwan Badawiat [14:03]. His Swahili poetry is praised for its unique "sweetness" and structural beauty, which differs from standard compositions [11:57]. 4. Leadership and Character [14:24] A Mentor to Many: The speaker describes him as a "father figure" and mentor who has educated, raised, and even sponsored students to study further. Humility: Despite his immense knowledge and the "secret of his ancestors" manifesting in him, he remains profoundly humble [08:35]. Honoring Scholars While Alive: Sheikh Said Ali Hasan makes a strong point that the community should praise and document the histories of their scholars while they are still alive, rather than waiting until they pass away [15:35]. 5. Tribute to Sheikh Salim bin Abi Bakar Jabir [16:25] The latter part of the video includes a special poetic tribute (Kasida) dedicated to Sheikh Salim Baajabir, another influential figure. The poem praises his hospitality (Karama), his support for teachers and Imams, and his tireless service to the Muslim Ummah [20:08].
