During the time of fitnat when Syedna Zakiuddin’s father, Al-Dail ajal Syedna Dawood bin Qutubshah (r.a.), was forced into hiding; Molana Zakiuddin remained in his father’s khidmat. Molana Zakiuddin was extremely eloquent and met with most government officials working greatly in the khidmat of Dawat.
In Molana Zakiuddin’s era, Ali bin Ibrahim formed the Aliyah sect which separated from Dawat.
Syedna Zakiuddin accompanied Syedna Dawood to Lahore to attend the court of the Emperor Akbar.
Syedna Zakiuddin conferred nas upon Syedna Ali Shamsuddin (r.a.).
Within his qubba mubaraka, to either side, are his two sons; Al-Mola Miya Khanji and Abdul Rasul.
