Life

He was the great grandson of the emperor of Kharasan.[ citation needed ] It has been recorded that the first of the ancestors of Muhammad Channan Shah, who came to Allo Mahar, was Syed Muhammad Jewan Shah Naqvi Sarkar, who came to South Asia with a contingent of other religious Sufi leaders upon the establishment of Islamic rule in India from the Middle-East.[ citation needed ] He traces his roots to the first Arab Shaikhs descending from Muhammad through the lineage of Husayn and so he is a Sayyed. The term Shah present in his name is derived from the Persian root for leader which most members of Muhammad's family obtained upon propagating the message of Islam in Persia after his death. [1]
