The family tree of Syed Muhammad Ibrahim Shah Baba meets Syed Jalaluddin Hassan Mir Surkh Bukhari at sixteen stage and Hazrat Imam Hussain (May Allah be pleased with him) at thirty-two.

He was one of the ardent devotees of a renowned spiritual teacher, Sheikh Muhammad Saleem Chishti Fateh Puri, Ibn Hazrat Bahauddin, who was born in 892 Hijri and died on 29th Ramazanul Mubarak 980 Hijri in Fateh Pur Sekri, India.

[ In 1566 A.D, Syed Muhammad Ibrahim Shah migrated from Fateh Pur Sekri, India to southern parts of Swat in the reign of Mughal King Jalaluddin Muhammad Akbar (1555-1606 A.D) with a missionary zeal to propagate the teachings of Islam. He left no stone un-turned to impart spiritual training and guidance to the thousands who approached him. He lived among the people and attracted them by his piety and spirituality. He spread the message of virtue and brotherhood. Most of the followers of Buddhism also embraced Islam at the hands of Syed Muhammad Ibrahim Shah Baba. He used to spend most of his time in mosque in the worship of Allah.

He also spent some time in village Toot Pattay, Dir to propagate the teachings of Islam. He had authored two books, “Kashkoal” and “Bahrul Ansaab”, meaning the Ocean of Genealogies. Unfortunately, these books are not available today.

All the people of the area had a great respect and love for him. His ardent devotees, Yousuf Baba, Sultan Baba, Syed Baba, Akhoon Baba, Aatay Baba and Hazrat Khawaja Baba, who belonged to Yousufzai tribe of Pathan, brought him to their village, “Tota Kaan” near Batkhela to learn the teachings of Islam from him. Due to his piousness, virtuousness and truthfulness, he was also gifted the lands of present village “Pir Khel” by the elders of Yousufzai. This was the gratitude of the people of Lower Swat for his spiritual gifts.

As per ‘Tazkira-i-Sadaat Sherazi’ written by Pirzada Qazi Syed Ghulam Rahmani Al-Qadri, Syed Muhammad Ibrahim Shah was the son-in-law of Syed Bahadar Baba, who was the father of Syed Kasteer Rahamkaar, known as Kaaka Sahib. Kaaka Sahib was born in 983 Hijri and died in 1063 Hijri in Nowshera.
