Hazrat Shah Paran (Bengali: শাহপরান, Shah Farhan) was a Sufi saint of the Suhrawardiyya and Jalalia order. It is said that he was the son of a sister of Shah Jalal and was born in Hadramaut, Yemen. He was an accomplice of his uncle, Shah Jalal, with whom he arrived in India. In 1303 AD, He took part in the expedition of Sylhet which was led by Shah Jalal. After the conquest of Sylhet he established a khanqah at Khadim Nagar in Dakshingarh Pargana, about 7 km away from Sylhet town, where he started Sufi spiritual practices and activities. He played a significant role in propagating Islam and establishing Muslim rule in the Sylhet region.
It is unclear how and when he died, but he is buried near his khanqah. For centuries, large numbers of devotees have been visiting his tomb, a practice which continues even today. On the 4th, 5th and 6th day of Rabi-ul-Awal, the Urs of Hazrat Shah Paran takes place. His grave is located in a high hillock and it is carefully preserved at a place which is built with bricks and surrounded by walls. On the northern side of the grave there is an old tree, the branches and branchlets of which are extended above the entire tomb.
The name of the tree is 'Ashagachh' (a tree of hopes). From a close observation of the leaves of the tree, it appears that the tree has grown out of a mixture of the fig, mango and some other tree. People eat the seeds of the figs devotionally in the hope of getting rid of diseases. Mangoes are also eaten with utmost respect as Tabaruk. There is an ancient mosque by the side of the tomb. The mosque has been modernized in 1989-91. About 1500 devout Muslims in a body can now say their prayers there.
Adjacent to the main tomb complex of Shah Paran, found in the East of Sylhet, is another tomb visited by worshipers, that of Konya Shah. Legend has it that this follower of the great saints was neither man nor woman. There is a permanent exhibition of the life and times of this saint. Contemporary paintings and pictures featured at the tomb/exhibition depict a person most likely to be a eunuch. Though the original conquerors earned a prominent role in Islamic history, main stream Islam shuns the idea of worshiping saints and eunuchs. A road bridge over the Surma River, a passenger ferry and a hall of residence at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology have all been named after Shah Paran.
Hazrat Shah Paran (the nephew of Hazrat Shah Jalal) was involved in preaching Islam in Sylhet. Shah Paran's Mazaar (tomb) is located in periphery of Sylhet town, in Major Tila. He was a companion of his uncle, Shah Jalal, with whom he arrived in India. In 1303 AD, He took part in the expedition of Sylhet which was led by Shah Jalal. After the conquest of Sylhet he established a khanqah at Khadim Nagar in Dakshingarh Pargana, about 7 km away from Sylhet town, where he started Sufi spiritual practices and activities. He played a significant role in propagating Islam and establishing Muslim rule in the Sylhet region.
{:}{:bn}হযরত শাহপরাণ ছিলেন সুহরাওয়ারদিয়া এবং জালালীয়া বংশের একজন সূফী সাধক। বলা হয়ে থাকে ইয়েমেনের হাদরামুতে জন্মগ্রহণকারী হযরত শাহপরাণ (রঃ) ছিলেন হযরত শাহজালালের বোনের ছেলে। তিনি তাঁর মামা হযরত শাহজালালের সাথে ভারতে আসেন এবং ১৩০৩ সালে শাহজালালের নেতৃত্বে সিলেট অভিযানে অংশ নেন। সিলেট অধিগ্রহনের পর শাহপরাণ (রঃ) সিলেট শহর থেকে ৭ কিলোমিটার দূরে দক্ষিনগড় পরগণার খাদিমনগরে খানকাহ স্থাপন করে সূফী মতবাদভিত্তিক আধ্যাত্মিক চর্চা ও কর্মকাণ্ড শুরু করেন। সিলেট অঞ্চলে মুসলিম শাসন প্রতিষ্ঠা ও ইসলামের প্রচারে তিনি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ ভুমিকা পালন করেন।
কিভাবে এবং কখন হযরত শাহপরাণ (রঃ) মৃত্যুবরণ করেন তা জানা যায়নি তবে তাঁকে দাফন করা হয় তাঁরই খানকার পাশে। শতবছর ধরে আজ অবধি অসংখ্য মানুষ তাঁর দরগায় আসেন। প্রতি বছর আরবী রবিউল আউয়াল মাসের ৪, ৫, ও ৬ তারিখে হযরত শাহপরাণের উরশ অনুষ্ঠিত হয়। তাঁর কবরটি একটি উঁচু পাহাড়ের ওপর ইট দিয়ে বাঁধানো এবং দেয়াল দিয়ে ঘেরা অবস্থায় সুরক্ষিত আছে। কবরটির উত্তরে “আশাগাছ” নামে একটি প্রাচীন বৃক্ষ আছে যেটির ডালপালা পুরো দরগার ওপর ছড়িয়ে রয়েছে। গাছটির পাতা কাছ থেকে দেখলে মনে হয় যে গাছটি আম, ডুমুর এবং অন্য কোন গাছের সমন্বয়ে বেড়ে উঠেছে। মানুষজন এই গাছটির ডুমুর ফলের বীজ রোগমুক্তির আশায় খেয়ে থাকে এবং এই গাছের আমও তবারুক হিসেবে ভক্তির সাথে খেয়ে থাকে। এই দরগার পাশেই একটি প্রাচীন মসজিদ রয়েছে। ১৯৮৯-৯১ সালে মসজিদটির আধুনিকীকরন করা হয় এবং এখানে প্রায় ১৫০০ জন মুসলিম একসাথে নামাজ আদায় করতে পারে।
শাহপরাণের মূল দরগার নিকটেই উত্তর সিলেটে রয়েছে কনিয়া শাহর দরগা। কথায় আছে যে তিনি পুরুষও ছিলেন না আবার নারীও ছিলেন না। কনিয়া শাহর দরগায় তাঁর সময়ের ছবি, চিত্রকর্ম, ও জীবনযাত্রার নিদর্শন খুঁজে পাওয়া যায় যা থেকে প্রতীয়মান হয় যে তিনি ছিলেন একজন নপুংসক। যদিও ইসলাম প্রচারকারীরা ইসলামের ইতিহাসে গুরুত্বপূর্ণ স্থান দখল করে নিয়েছে তারপরও মূলধারার ইসলাম ধর্ম সাধু এবং নপুংসকদের অর্চনাকে নিরুৎসাহিত করে।
সুরমা নদীর ওপর একটি সড়ক সেতু, একটি যাত্রীবাহী ফেরী এবং শাহজালাল বিজ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের একটি হলের নামকরন হযরত শাহ পরাণ (রঃ) এর নামে করা হয়েছে।{:}
