In History this city was same developed as in Egypt, Arabia, Iran, Africa, etc. Khambhat(Cambay) was a naval center for a long time.

The Naval center(Logistic Hub) means that the Chief Officer of naval affairs coordinate from that area and who was the chief of naval center(Logistic Hub) was Shah Bandar or Amir al-Bahr and all the offices of naval affairs were in control of him and the rest of the ports were subordinate to him, and this Naval Center officer was appointed directly by the king.

(Summary of the cultural history of Gujarat p. 190).

In terms of Islamic history, the land of Khambhat(Cambay) is very valuable and enviable because the blessed group of the Companions Holy Prophet (pbuh) came here and were they buried here.The Holy Four Companions, known as Ansar Arba'ah, are buried here and till today Holy grave of them are still here.

It is the land of Khambhat(Cambay), where Qutb-ul-Aqtab Hazrat Sayyiduna Badiuddin Zinda Shah Madar (R.A.) the master, where the Prophet (pbuh) fed nine morsels of rice to him and provide dressed him with heavenly clothes, and the place where the Prophet (pbuh) blessed such incidents with Zinda Shah Madar is known as Khawaja Khizr and that place still in Khambhat besides of Astana Sarkar Shahe Miran and near to Sea of Gulf of Khambhat(Cambay).

To whom in the world of Islam, those who are known and reckognised by Qutb e Rabbani, Mahbub e Ghos e Jilani, Mahboob ul Awliya, Nabiran e Ghauth e Azam, Sarkar Shah Miran, Hazrat Pir Miran Syed Ali and Hazrat Pir Miran Syed Wali, may Almighty Allah be pleased with them.

The ancient and historical city of Khambhat(Cambay) is certainly fortunate that the nobles of the province like Nabiran e Gauth e Azam Sarkar Shah Miran was visited with full glory, who have been benefited and inspired the whole world with their enlightenment and spirituality in eight centuries.

Sarkar Shah Miran Hazrat Pir Miran Syed Ali (Radiyallahu Taala Anhu)was born in the blessed year 558 AH according to 1166 AD in the ancient and famous city of Baghdad Sharif of Iraq in the Holy & Merciful House of Pir e Piran, Mir e Miran, Qutbul Aqtab,Fard al Afraad,Saiyed ul Saiyaad,Gauth ul Gauth, Mahbub e Subhani, Shehbaz e Lamaqani, Qandeel e Noorani, Haikal Al-Samdani, the Emperor of Baghdad, Huzoor Gauth e Azam, Muhyiddin Abu Muhammad Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA).

He is the beloved and cherished grandson of Sultan Al-Awlia Huzur Gauth-ul-Azam Dastgir (RA).His father is Hazrat Syedna Abul Fazl Muhammad (RA) and his mother is Walia Kamila Hazrat Syeda Bibi Sakina known as Amma Sahiba (RA).Historical facts show that Hazrat Gauth Azam Dastgir (RA) had a total of forty-nine (49) children So, Imam Dhahbi((may God bless him )and grant him peace)narrated by Hazrat Sayyiduna Shaykh Abd al-Razzaq((may God bless him )and grant him peace) that a total of 49 children were born to my father, including twenty-seven (27) sons and twenty-two (22) had daughters’(Sir Al-Iqal al-Nabalah 447/20 Fuat al-Ufiyat 374/2)

One of his 49 children is Hazrat Syedna Abul Fazl Muhammad (RA).Therefore, Ibn Najjar and Sahib Sharif al-Tawareikh and others have written about him in this way, that Hazrat Sayyidna Abul Fazl Muhammad (RA) is the son of Hazrat Gauth e Azam Dastgir (RA) and the completion of the external and internal sciences is the honor of his father.Various author had narrated that by the delivering messages and marvelous speeches of Abul Waqt / Shaykhs from which many people of society were satisfied Under the shadow of them and reached the level of perfection in that time with him which was quoted by various author of that time.

Kazim Ali bin Asghar Ali Bukhari, while mentioning regarding the sons of Gauth e Azam,and said ,, اما ابو الفضل محمد بن سید عبد القادر را سہ پسر بودند سید عبداللطیف و سید علی و سید ولی کہ مزار ایں ہردو در بندر کھمبات گجرات است،، (تبصرۃ المطالب قلمی نسخہ 25) However, Hazrat Abul Fazl Muhammad bin Syed Abdul Qadir Jilani (may Allah be pleased with him) had three sons: 1. Hazrat Syed Abdul Latif (RA) 2. Hazrat Pir Meeran Syed Ali (RA) 3 Hazrat Pir Meeran Syed Wali (RA) .
