Sayyed Abdullah Qutb Shah ibn Ya‘lā, al-Gilani, al Qadiri, was a medieval Persian Sufi, Muslim Preacher, religious scholar. He was a Sayyid and a relative of Hazrat Shaykh Abdul-Qadir Gilani.

He preached Islam to many people in the areas of modern Afghanistan and Northern and North-Western Pakistan circa 1090 AD and 1099 AD, and many tribes accepted Islam at this time. He is supposed to have returned to Herat, Afghanistan, after his preachings and died there.

He is not to be confused with the fictitious 'Qutab Shah' , the supposed common ancestor of many Northern tribes such as the Awans, who are in fact all of indigenous South Asian origins.
