Azmatkhan
Azmatkhan ( ar-at, عظمة خان, Aẓama Khān) al-Husayni, also spelled Azmat Khan, Azhmatkhan, al-Azhamatkhan or al-Azhamat Chan ( ur, ) are a family originating in Hadhramaut. They trace their lineage to Sayyid Abd al-Malik Azmatkhan ibn Alawi Ammul Faqih, a descendant of Husayn ibn Ali. Sayyid Abd al-Malik emigrated from Hadhramaut to India in the 14th century AD, earlier than other emigrations from Hadhramaut. al-Husayni later married a daughter of Nasirabad nobility and acquired Azmat Khan title. Khan title was given in order to consider him as the local nobility. In addition, they put "Azmat" which means "noble" because Abd al-Malik was originated from sayyid lineage. His descendants still retain this name as their patronymic until today. His descendants spread to Pattani, Cambodia, Malay, and Indonesia.

Wali Sanga
The Wali Songo (also transcribed as Wali Sanga) are revered saints of Islam in Indonesia, especially on the island of Java, because of their historic role in the spread of Islam in Indonesia. The word ''wali'' is Arabic for "trusted one" ("guardian" in other contexts in Indonesia) or "friend of God" ("saint" in this context), while the word ''sanga'' is Javanese for the number nine. Although referred to as a group, there is good evidence that fewer than nine were alive at any given time. Also, there are sources that use the term "Wali Sanga" to refer to saintly mystic(s) other than the most well-known nine individuals. Each man is often attributed the title '' sunan'' in Javanese, which may derive from ''suhun'', in this context meaning "honoured". Most of the wali were also called ''raden'' during their lifetimes, because they were members of royal houses. (See "Style and Title" section of Yogyakarta Sultanate for an explanation of Javanese nobility terms.) The graves of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
