He was born in Gwalior, the grandson of Muhammad Ghaus Gwaliori, and hailed from a family of mystics.[1] Born during the reign of the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb he died during the reign of the Mughal Emperor Muhammad Shah[2] during whose time Urdu had become a common language and installed as the court language.
