Farid-ud-Din Baghdadi

Shah Mohammed Farid-ud-Din Baghdadi (c. 1551 AD – c. 1733 AD), also known by the honorary title Shah Sahib, sometimes spelled as Fareed-ud-Din, was the seventeenth century's Iraqi Sufi saint. He is believed to have propagated Islam in the Chenab Valley of Jammu and Kashmir. He left for Hejaz and offered the Hajj at Mecca, and subsequently travelled through Egypt and Sindh. Prior to his propagation of Islam in the valley, he travelled through Agra and then reached Kishtwar where he spread Islam around 1075 Hijri, corresponding to 1664 AD. He was 75 at that time.
