Tariqah-i-Muhammadiya in Bengal (), was an offshoot of the wider anti-colonial Islamic revivalist, reformist and jihadist militant Tarīqah-e-Mūhammadiyāh movement led by Titumir in the early nineteenth century. Tarīqah-e-Mūhammadiyāh was pioneered by Syed Ahmed Barelvi and Shah Isma'il Dehlavi based on theological works of Shah Waliullah Dehlavi. It reached Bengal in 1820s, when Syed Ahmed Barelvi visited Calcutta, and Titumir became his disciple.
The movement's followers were adherents of Sufism who emphasized the importance of a murshid (spiritual guide) in cultivating purity of thought and action.
