'''Qutb Shah''', formally known as '''Abdullah Awn ibn Ya‘lā al-Qādirī al-Gīlānī''' ({{lang-fa|عبداللہ عَوْن ابنِ یعلیٰ}}) (c. 1028-1099), was a [[Sultan|ruler]],<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|last=Bahri|first=Hardev|title=Lahndi Phonetics, with Special Reference to Awáṇkárí|publisher=Bharati Press Prakashan|year=1963|pages=10 and 11}}</ref> medieval Persian [[Sufi]], [[Missionary|Muslim preacher]] and a [[religious scholar]].<ref name= "Sarwar Khan">Mohammad Sarwar Khan Awan, Wadi Soon Sakaser publisher Lok Virsa Islamabad Pakistan 2002, {{ISBN|969-503-285-0}}.</ref> He belonged to [[Alids|Alvi]] family of [[Banu Hashim]] tribe and was a relative of [[Abdul Qadir Gilani]].<ref>http://qadatona.org/%D8%B9%D8%B1%D8%A8%D9%8A/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B1%D8%AC%D8%A7%D9%84/4064</ref><ref>Dr AH Dani ''Early Islamic Preachers in Central Asia and Northern Pakistan'' Monograph, Islamabad, 1976, pp 11–12</ref>{{qn|date=June 2020}}

Initially, he belonged to [[Noorbakshia Islam|Imamia sect]] of Islam, later he was influenced by the teachings of his cousin, [[Abdul Qadir Gilani]], and ended up becoming a [[Hanbali]]-[[Zaydi]].<ref name = "Sarwar Khan" /> His [[Hanbali]]-[[Zaydi]] Sufi school tries to integrate perfectionism of commandments and agape oriented activism. [[Ibn Arabi]] also tried this synergy by admiring [[Ibn Hazm]] which raised legal paradoxes and became controversial in ultranomian circles.<ref>https://referenceworks.brillonline.com/entries/encyclopaedia-of-islam-3/al-ansari-abdallah-COM_24928</ref>

Qutb Shah, in first quarter of 11th century, ruled [[Herat]] (then Khorasan),<ref name=":0" /> where supposedly there was a power vacuum, and people made him their ruler due to his Religious Stature. After taking the throne of Herat, he also joined forces with [[Mahmud of Ghazni]] when Mahmud invaded Sub-continent.<ref name=":0" /> He ruled Herat until his death. All of his children migrated to modern-day [[Pakistan]], and settled near [[Salt Range]], on his command.<ref name=":0" /> He is considered to be the primary ancestor of the [[Awan (tribe)|Awans]]. <ref name = “conference">{{Cite book|last=Gandhi Peace Foundation|title=First History Conference on the Gurjars and Their Contribution in History |publisher=Bhāratīya Gurjara Parishada |year=1994|page=29|location=New Delhi|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9kwIAAAAIAAJ}}</ref><ref name=":0" /> He is buried in [[Iraq]] near [[Al-Kadhimiya Mosque|Imam Musa Kazim]].
