Ahl-i Hadith or Ahl-e-Hadith (Persian: اهل حدیث‎, Urdu: اہل حدیث‎, people of hadith) is a Sunni Salafi reform movement that emerged in North India in the mid-nineteenth century from the teachings of Syed Ahmad Barelvi, Syed Nazeer Husain and Siddiq Hasan Khan. It is an offshoot of the 19th-century Indian Tariqah-i-Muhammadiya movement tied to the 18th-century traditions of Shah Waliullah Dehlawi and the Wahhabi movement.
