Ghous Muhammad Yosuf Shah taji (Urdu: مولاناسیدعبدلالکریم المعروف غوث محمد یوسف شاہ تاجی بابا) (1881 – ziqqad 29, 1947), also called Tajuddin Baba (Urdu: تاج الد ین بابا), was an Indian Muslim Sufi master or Qutub. He lived in Nagpur, India.

Early life

Badruddin was orphaned at a young age and was raised by his maternal grandmother and uncle Abdul Rahman. He attended a Madrasah in Kamthi, near Nagpur, where he met Abdulla Shah who initiated him into the spiritual path. Shah gave him a dry fruit to eat, saying, "Eat less, sleep less, and speak less. Read Quran." With this, Badruddin is said to have lost his material consciousness and began to experience a sense of oneness or "Advaita Vedanta."

Reputation as a sage

Badruddin was once committed to a mental hospital. In the hospital he became widely regarded {{citation}}: Empty citation (help) as a sage and word spread outside of the hospital walls. Eventually people began to come to the hospital to see him. In time Badruddin was pardoned and the warden asked him to come and live with him in his own house as his presence had become a sign of local honor. Badruddin did not stay with the warden long, but eventually moved to Lal Mahal. He was honored by both Muslims and Hindus. In 1915, he met with Meher Baba and helped him toward God-realization. Meher Baba later stated that Badruddin was a Qutub or Perfect Master.

Successors

Badruddin had several successors. The first was Yousuf Shah Baba, whose original name was Abdul Kareem Shah. After meeting with Shah, Badruddin named him Yousef Shah and called him his son saying, "He is the key to my treasure".

Yousef Shah Baba is buried in Karachi, Pakistan. His successors were Albailay Shah Yousefi, Zaheen Shah Baba, and Mohammed Rafqiue Ahmed Al-Taji.
