Khwaja Shāh Kalīm-Ullāh Jahānābādī (شاه كليم الله جهانابادي) b. Nūr Allāh b. Aḥmad al-Miʿmār al-Ṣiddīqī (1650-1729) was a leading Chistī saint of the late Mughal period and is considered to be instrumental in the revival of the Chistī and Mir Sayyid Ali Hamadani ṣūfī ṭarīqah (path). His father, Noor Ullah, was a well-known astronomer and calligraphist. He was the grandson of Ustād Aḥmad Lahorī, the architect of the Taj Mahal and Lal Qila.
