Throughout the centuries, Khwaja Saheb’s principles and virtues have been passed onto others in search of the eternal truth by his descendants. Among them is one such divine voice and a mentor to thousands, Peer Baba Syed Sameer Chishti (Shah) Saheb. His simplicity is itself a message to his followers. He lives and breathes Khwaja Saheb’s message of love and devotion in his every action. And this comes as a natural extension of Peer Baba’s unequalled love for Khwaja Saheb.
