Sayyid Mir Jan

Ghawth Sayyid Mir Jan Shah Saheb ibn Hasan Naqshbandi Ishaani (Arabic: الغوث سيد مير جان شاه صاحب بن حسن النقشبندي الإيشاني) was a Sufi saint from Kabul and a 19th century leader of the Naqshbandi Ishaani Sub-Tariqa.

[1][10] After his education in Kabul, Sayyid Mir Jan stayed in Medina for a decade to be trained by one of his masters, and while there married a local woman.

Hazrat Ishaan's successors included his two sons Moinuddin Naqshband in Srinagar, Kashmir and Bahauddin in Lahore and their descendants until the late 18th century, by which time the lineage was lost.

[11] According to a legend, Hazrat Ishaan made prophecies about Sayyid Mir Jan, naming him as his successor to revive his lineage.

[10][12] Sayyid Mir Jan was a Qutb, more commonly known as Ghawth, the highest ranking Wali (Saint) of his time.
