Who among the following was the founder of Wahabi movement in India?

Correct answer: Syed Ahmed of Rai Bareilly

Explanation: The correct answer is D. Syed Ahmed of Rai Bareilly. The Wahabi Movement in India was founded by Syed Ahmed of Rai Bareilly in the early 19th century. Inspired by the teachings of Islamic reformer Abdul Wahhab of Arabia, Syed Ahmed aimed to purify Islam by removing un-Islamic practices and returning to the true spirit of Islam as per the Quran and Hadith. In India, the Wahabi Movement became a socio-religious reform movement and also took on a political character, especially in its opposition to British colonial rule. Syed Ahmed believed that the British rule was un-Islamic (Dar-ul-Harb) and called for jihad (holy war) to restore Muslim political power.
