Shah Abdul Aziz Muhaddith Dehlavi (11 October 1746 – 5 June 1824) was an Indian Sunni Muslim Scholar and Sufi Saint. He is known as the Muhaddith and Mujaddid from India. He was a member of the Naqshbandi Sufi order. Their tradition inspired later Sunni scholarship, including Abdul Aziz's father Shah Waliullah Dehlawi. Aziz's dream was to declare India a Darul Harb.
