The Sadaat Amroha (Template:Langx) or Amrohi Sayyid or Sayyid of Amroha (Template:Langx) are a community of Sayyids, historically settled in the town of Amroha, in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.

History
The town of Amroha is home to one of the oldest Naqvi Sadat settlements in India. Naqvis in Amroha arrived from Wasit, Iraq and have resided in the town of Amroha since A.D. 1190.[2]Template:Full
The Amrohi Sayyids formed the military and service gentry of the region in the Mughal empire.[3] When the Marathas invaded and plundered the region, the country of Western Uttar Pradesh was burnt with the exception of Amroha owing to a few thousand Amrohi Sayyid soldiers that drove out and conciliated with the Marathas.[4]

Present circumstances
