		A fairly well off resident of Burdwan, Syed was proud of the fact that unlike so many Bengali Mohammedans who had been forced-converted from Hinduism to Islam, Badruddoza's ancestors had chosen Islam of their own volition.
		No one had forced them to renounce Hinduism and then accept Islam, as had been the case with Sahaj Ram Sapru, the grand-father of Allama Iqbal.
		However, it is said that the ancestors of Badruddoza were Brahmins and by virtue of the fact that they had opted for Islam out of their own free will, the then head mullah had offered him the honorific title of Syed.
