Murshidzade Hidayat Inayat-Khan, who was intensely attuned to the message of his father Hazrat Inayat Khan, led the Sufi Movement for sixteen years as Pir-o-Murshid, and then for the next seven years as co-Representative General, with Karimbakhsh Witteveen.

His birthday was commemorated last month with attunement and gratitude. He was born in London on the 6th of August, 1917.
