Mawlana Khâlid Sharazuri also known as Khâlid-i Baghdâdî and Mawlana Khalid[1][2] (1779–1827) was a Kurdish Sufi,[3] and poet by the name of Shaykh Diya al-Dīn Khalid al-Shahrazuri,[4] the founder of a branch of the Naqshbandi Sufi order - called Khalidi after him - that has had a profound impact not only on his native Kurdish lands but also on many other regions of the western Islamic world.[5] His writings are among the earliest examples of prose and poetry in Central Kurdish.[2][6]
Shahrazuri acquired the epithet Baghdadi through his frequent stays in Baghdad, for it was in the town of Karadağ (Qaradagh) in the Shahrizur region,[7] about 5 miles from Sulaymaniyah, that he was born in 1779.
