Abstract :
Shaykh Zahid Gilani is Shaykh Safi al-Din’s spiritual guide. No Shaykh Zahid’s ancestors and nor Shaykh Safi al-Din’s ancestors were Gilani ,but both of them Ancestors’ origin was Sanjan and descent of this spiritual guide and his disciple is Kurdish .Shaykh Zahid lived among the Thalishs. Since Talish have been carried a part of Gilan always ,so he known as Gilani and apparently this suffix annexed to his name later. I was wander more than twenty years about this object ,until after studies in libraries and arena ,I concluded that Shaykh Zahid and Shaykh Safi al-Din had the same decent origin and Shaykh Zahid’s mausoleum is in Shaykhah Karan Republic of Azarbayjan.
