Khwaja Baqi Billah (Persian: خواجه باقی بالله) also known as Khwaja Muhammad Baqi,^[1] with his pen name Berang, (14 July 1564– 29 November 1603), was a Sufi saint from Kabul. He was a disciple of Khwaja Muhammad Amkanagi and the pioneer of the Naqshbandi Order in the Indian subcontinent. ^[2][3][4][5]

Baqi Billah was the originator and pioneer of the Naqshbandi Order in the Indian subcontinent. His father Abd as-Salām Khalji Samarqandī Quraishi was a scholar and saint from Kabul. His Takhallus (pen name) was "Berang", which literally means colorless or invisible.^[6][1]

He died on 14 Jumada al-Thani 1012 AH (29 November 1603) and is buried in the Nabi Karim area of Delhi.^{[citation needed]}
