Early life and education
Sulaiman Nadvi was born on 22 November 1884 in Desna, a village of Nalanda District, Bihar, India (then in the Patna District, in the Bengal Presidency of British India). His father, Hakeem Sayyed Abul Hasan was a Sufi. Later in life, he formed a close spiritual relation with Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi, and became his disciple. Aligarh Muslim University conferred on him the honorary degree of Doctorate of Literature (DLitt) in 1941. == Contribution to Islamic literature ==
Contribution to Islamic literature
In 1933, he published one of his major works, Khayyam. The nucleus of this book was an article on the noted Persian scholar and poet Omar Khayyam. Sulaiman Nadvi, along with others who favored Hindu-Muslim unity in British India, suggested that the term "Urdu" be abandoned in favour of "Hindustani" because the former conjured up the image of a military conquest and war whereas the latter had no such symbolic baggage. Sulaiman Nadvi founded Darul Musannifeen (Academy of Authors), also known as the Shibli Academy, at Azamgarh. The first book published there was Ard-ul-Quran (2 volumes). == Later life and death ==
