'''Sua Eccellenza ''Quṭb al-aqṭāb,<ref>Polo dei poli. L'Islam considera che tra i fedeli si manifesti, a scadenze più o meno regolari di circa un secolo, una personalità di alto profilo religioso, chiamato appunto "Polo".</ref> Naqīb al-Ashrāf<ref>Rappresentante degli [[Sharif]] di una data regione.</ref> [[Sayyid]]'' ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Qādirī al-Kaylānī''' (1841–1927) è stato il primo [[Lista dei Primi ministri d'Iraq|Primo ministro dell'Iraq]] e il suo primo capo di Stato. Era riconosciuto come il 15º discendente diretto di [[Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani|ʿAbd al-Qādir al-Gīlānī]] (o Kaylānī), uno dei principali [[Sufismo|sufi]], fondatore della diffusa ''[[tariqa|tarīqa]]'' [[Qadiriyya|Qādiriyya]].

Riga 44 ⟶ 8:

Sir [[Percy Cox]] afferma, a p. 128 del suo ''Hand Book of Mesopotamia'' che egli era il più influente [[sunnita]] [[Iraq|iracheno]] e il capo ufficiale della comunità araba. Egli così proseguiva: "È degno di nota che un'estrema deferenza fosse riservata al Naqīb di Baghdad e alla sua famiglia dalle personalità indiane e afghane più influenti e ricche, ma anche da quelle più umili e povere".

Quando fu prescelto dai britannici per guidare il governo iracheno, si dubitava che egli avrebbe accettato, a causa della sua età avanzata, del suo stato di salute precario e della sua abituale riservatezza, oltre a una sua dichiarazione in cui sottolineava la propria riottosità a prender parte ad attività politiche, foss'anche per salvare l'Iraq dal disastro. L'amministrazione britannica però riuscì a convincerlo., Ciòcome è confermatotestimoniato da [[Gertrude Bell]], che.<ref>{{cite scrisse:book

<blockquote>In came Mr. Philby and others and on top of them Sir Percy. Every one but Mr. Philby melted away, and we two turned to Sir Percy breathless with excitement. ‘Well he said, he has accepted’. He had come straight from the Naqeeb who had agreed to undertake the formation of the Provisional Government. So the first success is scored and not one but Sir Percy could have done it. Indeed, that even he should have inducted the Naqeeb to take a hand in Public affairs is nothing short of a miracle<ref>{{cite book

Studioso di vaglia, la sua biblioteca personale contava circa 36.000 volumi di vari argomenti. Di essi ben 2.000 erano manoscritti. L'attuale "Maktaba Qādiriyya" (Biblioteca Qādiriyya) e di fatto il nome della sua biblioteca personale. Un manoscritto calligrafato in oro del [[Corano]], vecchio di 700 anni, fu presentato dopo la sua morte a [[Idris I di Libia]], capofila della confraternita della [[Senussi|Sanūsiyya]], da Pīr Ibrāhīm Sayf al-Dīn, che divenne Naqīb dopo la morte del figlio di ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Kaylānī, che era succeduto a sua volte al padre.

Despite the formation of the Council of Ministers, the question as to the form of permanent Government and of the person of its ruler was constantly under discussion in the Coffee houses, in the tents of the Sheikhs, or wherever Iraqis met in social and political gatherings.

It is reported that the throne was offered to the Naqeeb of Baghdad, but under such conditions and limitations as would have made him, in his own words no more than an "Iraqi [[Raja]]h". He himself never sought it and felt that if it had been freely offered to him by the people he would be obliged to accept the honor and the duties (Ireland, p.&nbsp;304).{{Citation needed|date=December 2007}}

During another interview with Bell, replying to a question regarding his or one of his sons' candidatures for Sharaf or Emir of Mesopotamia, he said, <blockquote>"I am a relative of the Sharaf. I come of the same stock and I share the same religious opinion, you therefore understand that I am not actuated by difference of blood, of thought when I tell you that I would never consent to the appointment of myself or of my sons as Emir. The Hejaz is one and IRAQ is one. There is no connection between them out that of faith. Our politics, out trade, our agriculture is all different from those of Hejaz. The Hejaz is the Holy Land of Islam. It must remain a separate and independent state by which all Muslims can profit".</blockquote>

He was asked again, "If for political reasons it were necessary to put an Emir at the head of IRAQ would you accept the responsibility with British help and support"? He said, <blockquote>"Can you put a question as that to me? I am a Darwesh, concern is not with the things of this world. It would be contrary to the deepest principles of my creed to become the political head of the state. In the time of my ancestor, Syed Abdul Qadir al Gillani, the [[Abbasid]] Caliphs were accustomed to consult him as you and your colleagues consult me, but he would never have consented to take an active part in public affairs. Neither would I, nor any of his descendants consent to do so. This is my answer on the ground of religion, but I will give you also an answer, based on personal reason I am an old man. These five or six years of life, which remain to me, I wish to spend in reflection and study. When you came to day, I kept you waiting. I was busy with my books. They are my constant preoccupation".<ref>{{cite book

He was a scholar, and his personal Library consists of thirty six thousand books on various subjects. Of these, about two thousand were manuscripts. The Present Makteba Qadiria (Qadri Library) is in fact, the altered name of his personal library. A 700-year-old copy of the [[Quran]] written in gold was, after his death, presented to the [[King Idris]] of Libya, by Pir Ibrahim Saif-ud-din, who became Naqeeb after the son of Syed Abd al-Rahman passed. "Tarikh Ahwarat IRAQIA" by Abdul Razak Al Hassani states that he was well known for his exemplary piety and charity, and as a great Alim (Scholar) who loved books and had acquired abundant knowledge{{Citation needed|date=December 2007}}. He was also a man devoted to prayer and considered to be a great Wali (Saint) of his time{{Citation needed|date=December 2007}}. He had millions of [[Murid]]s (Disciples) and devotees.
