Sufi Inayat was executed by Yar Muhammad Kalhorro in early eighteenth
century. Sufi Inayat was accused of leading the small farmers (Harees) of the area to challenge the domination of Delhi ruler Farrukhsiyar, local feudal landlords and Mullahs. His mantra was “Jo Kherray so Khaey” [JO KHARRENDO SO E KHAINDO.... means jo zameen ma hal chalata ha usi ka haq banta ha anaj par...]
, means the one who ploughs has the foremost right on the yield. The
popularity of Sufi Inayat forced the feudal landlords of the area to
contact Mughal King Farrukhsiyar who on wrong information ordered the
ruler of northern Sindh Yar Muhammad Kalhoro to uproot the Sufi Inayat
and his companions. A prolonged siege of Jhok resulted in the offer of
negotiations from Kalhora commander and Sufi Inayat accepted the offer
to avoid further bloodshed. As he arrived for the negotiations in the
enemy camp he was arrested and later executed in Thatto. Haq Mojood Sufi Inayat Shaheed.
