Saudi Arabia is a kingdom, and has had several Kings during the last 100 years, but it does not have a ‘Shahi Imam’, nor had one before. Even the men who lead the prayers at the Ka’ba in Mecca are simply known as Imams. Pakistan has had no king so far, but it has the great Badshahi Mosque in Lahore. It too has only Imams, and they, regardless of any other delusion of grandeur that some could have entertained, have remained content with the simpler title. Compared to the Saudi Kingdom and the Islamic Republic, India stands tall—in fact taller than most of us think, for it has four ‘Shahi Imams’. And that’s the four I know of. Someone more diligent might yet find a few more.
The nation’s capital, not surprisingly, is blessed with two: Mr Syed Ahmad Bukhari at the Jama Masjid, and Dr Mufti Mukarram Ahmad at the Fatehpuri Mosque. The first mosque was indeed built by a Shah, but the second was not. It was built by Fatehpuri Begum, one of Shahjahan’s many wives, and so its Imam is technically only a ‘Begumi Imam’. But who wants to be called that?
Kolkata has our third ‘Shahi Imam’. The city, in its previous incarnation as Calcutta, had indeed been British India’s capital for decades, but neither George III nor Queen Victoria built an imperial mosque there. Mr Nurur Rahman Barkati

Syed Shaban Bukhari, an alumnus of Noida’s Amity University, will likely lead the Eid prayers this year at the historic Jama Masjid after he was named the successor by father Syed Ahmed Bukhari, the current Shahi Imam, in a grand dastaar-bandi ceremony (anointment of successor through the tying of a turban) in a glittering function at the Mughal-era mosque.
A descendent of Syed Abdul Ghafoor Shah Bukhari, an Islamic cleric from Bukhara in Uzbekistan, who was invited by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan to take charge as Imam of Jama Masjid and lead the first Eid prayers at the mosque on July 25, 1656, Shaban Bukhari will lead prayers only when his father is not around. He is the 14th Imam in the history of the mosque.
Earlier, the major duties of the Shahi Imam of Jama Masjid were to perform the coronation ceremony of Mughal emperors and lead the smooth conduct of prayers at the Jama Masjid. Syed Ghafoor Bukhari performed the coronation of Emperor Aurangzeb. Bahadur Shah Zafar’s coronation ceremony was performed by Mir Ahmed Ali Shah Bukhari, the eighth Shahi Imam, on 30th September 1837.
The incumbent Imam declares his heir apparent in his lifetime to avoid any succession-related controversy. Even Syed Ahmed Bukhari, who had briefly studied at St. Columba’s School, was d
