Iraqi Biradri, (العراقي برادری) is a Muslim community in South Asia who migrated to Sindh, Pakistan.

During the Arab Invasion of Sindh (present day, a province in Pakistan) from 711 (and more from AD-1947), which expedited from present day Iraq, a sizeable number of Muslims migrated as well, residing first to Sindh, Gujarat, Punjab plains and later to the Gangetic plains{{citation needed|dated=February 2019|date=February 2019}}.

History and origin

Iraqis arrived in India during 15th century from Sindh residing first in present-day Ghazipur district and Ballia district and then scattered across eastern Uttar Pradesh and some parts of western Bihar. Their primary occupation at that time was sugar-making but later they changed their profession to hide merchants and tannery owners during British Raj in Kanpur and Kolkata.

Present circumstances

India

Iraqis are among the richest Muslim communities of India. They are the most orthodox Muslim community in India with most of them adhering to Arab social culture. Though majority of Iraqis in India follow Hanafi school of thought and Fiqh (Jurispudence), a sizeable number of them are instead of the Hanbali school of thought{{citation needed|date= February 2019}}. Most of these Iraqis live in eastern Uttar Pradesh region of Northern India. They are highly concentrated in Jajmau area of Kanpur and Park Circus and Topsia area of Kolkata for purpose of leather tanning and manufacturing.[1] Kotwari in Ballia district had the richest population of Iraqi biradri until when they migrated to Kanpur and Kolkata. Now only large mansions and mosques remain there and there is very little population of Iraqis nowadays. Kotwari was a magnificent example of powerful village and its ruins tells of the power and life of Iraqi people.

Pakistan

In Pakistan, Iraqis are present in Karachi, Faisalabad and Lahore due to migration in 1947. They belong to Mohajir community in Pakistan.[2]{{Better source|reason=Reddit is not a reliable source|date=June 2018}}
