He was a direct descendant of the prophet, Mohammed which entitled him to use the appellation Seyyid.[1] Born Cherif 'Abdallah, he was given the nickname of Gubari (or Ghobâri) because according to legend, he wrote, in ghobar writing, an entire chapter of the Q'ran, consisting of four verses and fifteen words, on a single grain of rice.[2]
