Biography

Khawaja Sultan Ul Arifeen Sayyid Sabir Pak Ali Ahmed was the Great Grandson of Ghawth Ul Azam Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jilani. His Father was Sayyid Abdus Salaam Abdur Rahim Jilani son of Sayyid Abdul Wahaab Jilani eldest son of Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jilani. His mother was Sayyidah Jamilah elder sister of Baba Farid Ganjshakkar and direct descendent of Umar Al Faruq.

Baba Fareed (رحمتہ اللہ علیہ) entrusted him the duty of distribution of food (Langar). He accepted this duty happily and in between engaged himself in prayers. He dispensed with his duties well and also attended the discourse of Baba Freed Ganje Shakar. He did not partake a single morsel from food (Langer), kept fasts and went to the jungle and ate wild berries and leaves. He did his duties for 12 years. He prayed continuously and his abstentions were never disrupted. Frequent and continuous fasting and eating leaves and wild food made him weak. When his mother came back again and saw him, she complained to his brother (Baba Fareed) of his weakness. Baba Fareed called upon him and asked the reason. Sabir Pak replied “You ordered me to distribute the food and not to partake from it”. Baba Fareed embraced him happily and remarked “He is SABIR (Patient)”. From that day forth He became famous with the name of “SABIR”.
