Description
No authentic historical reference about Baba Ratan is available, whatever is known about him is based on the prevalent oral traditions.[7] According to local traditions, he was a companion of Muhammad and was blessed to live over 700 years.[8][9] The first reference to Baba Ratan dates back to the 12th century.[8] There are several narratives around him, some ascribing him as a disciple of Gorakhnath. Others associate him with Muhammad, who foretold his birth at Mecca in Arabia where he travelled during Hajj, before finally settling in Bathinda in Punjab after his reported conversion to Islam.[8]
