A meeting of Sufi saints with Guru Nanak

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A meeting of Sufi saints with Guru Nanak, gouache with gold on paper, circa 19th century.

A discussion of this painting appears at: [1]

Islamic Style painting of Guru Nanak (Right, Green with Halo) meeting with "خواجه معين الدين" "Khawaja Moinuddin", (top left, yellow tunic with halo), I don't know who this is referring to. Read comments for more information

Top heading is an invocation to "His Holiness Khwaja Ali Qalb Qadr Sri". I don't know who this is.

Guru Nanak is in the top right wearing a green tunic and has a halo, his heading simply reads "Guru Nanak"

The figure on the left Guru Nanak is talking to is identified as "خواجه معين الدين" "Khawaja Moinuddin", most likely Mu'in al-Din Chishti

On the right, there are two figures - one is wearing white with no turban, and the other is wearing green and has a turban. The one wearing white is Bu Ali Shah. The one on the right is identified as "Farid Ganjshakhar", which would mean that this is Baba Farid

​

There are two figures on the bottom left with headings. One is wearing white with a turban, while the other is wearing green with a turban. The figure is green is "خواجہ نظام الدین" "Khwaja Nizamuddin" (most likely Syed Muhammmad Nizamuddin Auliya) and the one in white is "خواجہ قطب الدین" or "Khawaja Qutbuddin". This figure is most likely Qutbuddin Bakhtiar Kaki

​

This painting seems to depict Guru Nanak (who is obviously seen as a great Sufi Figure in this painting) in conversation with various Chisti Sufis from India, from various times
