How important were the religious reforms of shah wali ullah?

Answer 1

The translation of the Qur'an into Persian was a very important reform, Shah Waliullah believed that the lack of knowledge of the Qur'an and Islam was a major reason for the problems of the Muslims. Translating the Qur'an, he made a large number of Muslims able to understand and follow the Quranic teachings which were vital to the Muslim community.

He played a very important role in defeating the Marathas at the Battle of Panipat in 1761. He believed that the Muslims had to unite to deal with this threat, he wrote to all Muslim nobles calling on them to unite and save the Mughal empire. It was partly his influence which made Ahmed Shah Abdali of Persia intervene. Joining the local Muslim leaders, he defeated the Marathas at the Battle of Panipat.

His influence continued long after his death, the Madrassa Rahimiya continued to flourish and many future Islamic leaders were inspired by him to fight for the good of the Muslim community.

Answer 2

The religious reforms of ShahWali Ullah were the translation of the Holy Quran into Persian, promotion of Madrassa Rahimiya in Delhi and the fight with Marathas.

The translation of the Holy Quran was the major important reform of shah waliullah, as the people were able to read and understand Quran very well. Their incomplete knowledge of Islam was now complete.

Shah wali ullah promoted madrassa rahimiya because it taught people about islam and islamic teachings. The promotion of madrassa rahimiya helped people alot.

The fight with marathas was also important because Shah wali ullah made the muslims fight with a common enemy, in other words he made the muslims united.

To conclude my answer I would like to say that the religious reforms of ShahWaliUllah were very important as it helped many Muslims then and later on. The most important reform was the translation of the HolyQuran because Muslims were now able to read and understand Quran and they even followed it.
