==History==<br />
They are the descendants of Syed Ibrahim Mallick baya and family according to the government data of bihar Sharif and ancient books, a Sufi born near Ghazni ([[Afghanistan]]), descended from ancestors who had migrated there from [[Baghdad]]. The Muslim population of Bihar was around 13% before the partition of India in 1947. At that time "Syed Mallick Baya Families" constituted about 15% of the Muslim population of [[Bihar]].
