Meherban Shah Hakim was the son of Ghazi Rehmat, who was supreme commander of Raja Gohar Aman’s army during 1840’s. The first Members of the Hakim family are believed to migrate from central Asia during late 1780’s. The history of Hakim family is very interesting because the second generation of the family, notably, Ghazi Rehmat moved up to the position of supreme commander of Gohar Aman’s Royal army. It is believed that the conquest of Gilgit city in 1848 by Gohar Aman was not possible without bravery and incredible genius of his trusted second-in-command Ghazi Rehmat. He perfectly employed propaganda, political will and incredible military strategy to conquer Gilgit city with only handful of soldiers. The conquest of Gilgit city made Raja Gohar Aman as uncontested Ruler of the whole Gilgit-Baltistan region. After the death of Gohar Aman, internal rifts among the family members divided the whole region into various principalities. The decedents of Ghazi Rehmat Ruled Ghizer district as Hakims until Z.A Bhutto ended the administrative powers of Royals in the region. The Hakim family is still considered one of the most respected families in Ghizer district. The last hakim ruler of Ghizer district Hakim Muhammad Yaqoot shah died in 1997.
