[[Syedi Nuruddin]] was his companion who also visited Imam [[Al-Mustansir Billah]], Egypt. He joined the Ismaili faith under Fatimid Dai [[Mu'ayyad fi'l-Din al-Shirazi]], and came back to Khambat, India to propagate the [[Taiyabi]] faith.

Their names were (Ba)Lam Nath(known as Moulai Abdullah) and Rup Nath (later called Mawla'i Nurad-Din).

He is said to have stayed some years at Cambay studying the people. He died on August 12, 1141 in [[Khambhat]], [[Gujarat]], [[India]] and his mausoleum is located there.

The [[da'i]] named Ahmad once took two the Gujarati orphans (Abdullah and [[Syedi Nuruddin|Nuruddin]]) to [[Cairo]], trained them in the [[Isma'ilism|Ismaili]] doctrine, and sent them back to Gujarat as missionary. Abdullah laid the foundation of the [[Dawoodi Bohra|Bohra]] community.{{sfn|Blank|2001|p=37}} According to the Bohra myths, [[Jayasimha Siddharaja|Jayasimha]] sent an army to capture Abdullah, but Abdullah converted him to Islam by performing miracles and by exposing the purported miracles of Hindu [[pandit]]s as fake. There is no evidence that Jayasimha ever gave up Shaivism, but several of the Bohra [[List of Dai of Dawoodi Bohra#The Walī-ul-Hind|Walis and Da'i al-Mutlaqs]] claimed descent from him.{{sfn|Blank|2001|p=38}} These included [[Ismail Badruddin I|Syedna Ismail]], the 34th [[Da'i al-Mutlaq]].{{sfn|Blank|2001|p=44}}

Two stories are told of his first missionary success. According to one story, he gained a cultivator's heart by filling his dry well with water. As per second he travelled to Ahlinvada, Patan. King Sidhraj Jaisingh sent a force of armed men to fetch him, found surrounded with wall of fire. King himself went there to meet him. Later on two of his minister Tarmal and Bharmal became his follower.

[[Syedi Hasan Feer]], 14th century famous saint at Sultan of Patan was also from the lineage of Maulaya Abdullah.<ref>[http://www.zeninfosys.net/urus/content/syedi-hasanfeer-shaheed-qs] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170208035514/http://www.zeninfosys.net/urus/content/syedi-hasanfeer-shaheed-qs |date=2017-02-08 }}, syedi-hasanfeer-shaheed-qs</ref>
