A semi-legendary 8th-century mystic and warrior-saint venerated as the spiritual protector of Karachi; tradition holds he arrived by Arab vessel on the Sindh coast. His historicity cannot be firmly established (Maclean), but his hilltop shrine in Clifton predates the modern city and draws huge crowds. (Sources: Wikipedia; D. N. Maclean, Brill 1989.)
