History

The Sayyids of Jarwal, along with those of Kintoor and Zaidpur, were well known Taluqadars (feudal lords) of Awadh province.[2] Jarwal is also name of a section of populated place situated in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, its geographical coordinates are 21° 25' 58" North, 39° 49' 7" East [1], [2], [3]Sayyidis have settled Jarwal, mohammad Hussain Kazmi's ancestor by, Jarwal's famous philanthropist dulle Mian Iftkhar Hussain Kazmi Zamidar Kintur Kintoor (Barabanki) , whose grand father Badar Musavi Qazim hijra in Jarwal, Have a relationship uncle Khomeini of Iran

The Sayyids of Jarwal were descended from one Abu Talib, who was originally from Iran. During Genghis Khan's invasion, Abu Talib fled with his family, first to Khorasan and then to Lahore. In 1286, his son Aziz ud-Din went to Delhi, and his own son Ala ud-Din eventually settled in Bado Sarai, in Barabanki district. Ala ud-Din had two sons: Jalal ud-Din and Jamal ud-Din. Jalal ud-Din incurred the ire of the Delhi sultan Ghiyath ud-Din Tughluq, who had him executed. Ghiyath ud-Din later tried to make amends to Jamal ud-Din by granting him 25,000 bighas of land, revenue-free, in Barhauli, on the south bank of the Gogra, and another 25,000 in Jarauli on the north bank.[3]

While Jamal ud-Din had no trouble establishing himself in Barhauli, he faced stiff resistance from Raja Chhatarsal, the Bhar ruler of Jarauli, and died without taking control of the fort of Jarauli. His son, Sayyid Zakariyya, finally gained control of the fort in 1340,
