Mir Syed Shams-ud-Din Muhammad Arāqi[a] (Persian: میر شمس الدین محمد عراقی; c. 1440–1515 CE), was an Iranian Sufi saint.

[5] Soon after deciding to join the Noorbakshia order, Araqi spent nineteen years traveling and studying under various khanqah masters throughout Iran and Iraq.

In Herat, Araqi apparently undertook a mission for Bayqara to investigate if a king from Iraq was planning to conquer parts of Khurasan under Timurid control.

[12] For a brief period when Araqi was banished from Kashmir in 1505 due to political tensions at the court, he along with 50 other disciples sought refuge at Skardu in Baltistan.

[16] He is considered by some to be the effective founder of Shia Islam in Ladakh and Gilgit–Baltistan, as well as in the rest of Jammu and Kashmir and its adjoining areas.

Araqi translated the Fiqh-i-Ahwat (book of jurisprudence), which was written in Arabic by his teacher, Syed Muhammad Noorbaksh.
