| has gloss | eng: Hazrat Hajib Shakarbar was born as the younger of the two sons of Hazrat Shams Sabzwari in 1213 AC. His grand parents named him Alauddin Muhammad, but when his father returned from Tabrez to see his new born baby, he changed the name from Alauddin Muhammad to Syed Ahmad because he had had a dream to this effect in Tabrez. The new baby showed the signs of a born Hafiz and so came to be known as Zinda Pir from his very infancy. He got the title of Shakarbar in Sabzwar and of Hajib in Makkah, and became so famous with the sweet combination of Hajib Shakarbar that his original names went into total oblivion. He joined his father in Multan, India (now in Pakistan), with his elder brother Hazrat Naseeruddin, and a large armed escort of Turkish, Iraqi and Kabuli fighters in 1289 AC. In early 1302 he arrived with his faithful soldiers in Narhar on a preaching mission, where a fighting was imposed on him by the then Raja of Narhar, which the Hajibi army won. |
