Abdul Ghafoor Pechuho, better known as Humayooni and Muftoon Humayooni, was an Islamic scholar, saint and poet. A disciple, and student of his father Muhammad Yaqoob, he belonged to the Qadiri Sufi order, and started a mystic tradition in Greater Sindh.[2][3] Much of what is known about his life is through Sufi tradition, and separating it from historical reality is difficult.[4]
