He was born in Jaunpur, traveled throughout India, Arabia and Khorasan, where he died at the town of Farah, Afghanistan at the age of 63.
EARLY LIFE
Hazrath Syed Mohammed, son of Hazrat Syed Abdullah titled Syed Khan, was born in Jaunpur on Monday, the 14th Jamadi-ul-Awwal 847 Hijri corresponding to 1443 A.D. It is said that when his mother Bibi Amina, also known as Aqa-Malik, was pregnant, she dreamt that, "The Sun came down from the sky and entered in her collar", and she went into a trance. At the time of his birth, a large number of miraculous incidents took place which were similar to those connected with the birth of Prophet Mohammed (PBUH). An eminent Wali, Shaik Daniyal chisti Jaunpuri (RA), said that at the time of the birth of Syed Mohammed (AHS), during the night he heard a mysterious voice saying "Haq (truth) has come, and Baatil (falsehood) gone, certainly falsehood is ever vanishing". In the morning he learnt that all the idols in all the temples in the city had fallen down. He visualized the birth of an extraordinary child, and upon making enquiries, he learnt that by the Grace of God, a male child had been born in the house of Hazrat Syed Abdullah. He was told by the child's father that when the child was born, his body was found to be clean - with his hands covering his private parts. He removed his hands from the private parts when his clothes were put on. Syed Abdullah said that on the same night, the Prophet (PBUH) appeared in his dream and said, "I have named the child with my name". Therefore, he named the child Syed Mohammed. He also said that there was a distinctive mark shape like a seal on his back. On learning about the peculiarities of the child, Shaik Daniyal (RA) was convinced that the child was the Promised Mahdi (AHS), since that was the period when the advent of a Mahdi was expected. Hazrat Syed Usman, his grandfather, came to India from Samarkhand with his family and settled down in Jaunpur on the invitation of the Sharqiya Kings. He was one of the most famous Ulema, and a noted Alim-e-Deen. Hazrat Syed Mohammed (AHS) was a descendent of Imam Moosa Al-Kazim (RA). There were twelve generations between Syed Mohammed (AHS) and Imam Moosa Al-Kazim (RA), as noted hereunder [1] :

Travels
He left Jaunpur along with his family and a small group of followers. Migrating from place to place and gathering more companions the Mahdavia group reached Farah in Afghanistan where he died and is buried.
Pilgrimage and claim to be the Mahdi
By the age of 53 he embarked on the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, where in 1496 (901 Hijra), after circumambulating the Kaaba, he declared that he was the Promised Mahdi and whoever believes in him is a Momin.
He was generally ignored by the ulema of Mecca, and after staying in Mecca for nearly seven or nine months [2] he returned to India where he proclaimed himself to be the Mahdi at Ahmedabad and later at Badhli (near Patan, Gujarat).
