This person was a first cousin of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad and plays a role at various points in his life:
- Probably, he is the 'Imad-ud-Din' referred to as a childhood friend in Seeratul Mahdi and a travel companion
- He became a spiritual advisor to the local sweeper (chuhra) community and considered himself the re-incarnation of Lal Beg. This might have become the inspiration for Mirza Ghulam Ahmad when the latter came under financial duress when [his father died].
- He organized a Chuhra Mela annually in Qadian, and was most likely the inspiration behind the Jalsa Salana.
- He was also the uncle of [Muhammadi Begum], and thus became embroiled with him in that saga.
