Kashmiri Khwaja

Khawaja or khwaja is an honorific title used across the Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia and Central Asia, particularly towards Sufi teachers. The word comes from the Iranian word khwāja (New Persian khāje خواجه) and translates as "master", "lord". [citation needed]

Some of the Kashmiri converts to Islam by Sufi saints adopted the title Khawaja. Khawajas were considered rich and were mostly traders.
