He converted an well known person to Islam, who renamed himself Malik Moosa Raina. Raina gifted Mir Syed Shamsuddin the area which is today known as Zadibal, in Srinagar. The Descendants of Mir Syed Shamsuddin still live in that area and are called Markadars.The Markadars lived in the heart of zadibal and prayed at a mosque which was later taken over by the Ansaries, and Markadars were left with nothing.This mosque is currently known as Imambara, Zadibal.Some of his descendants went to Budgam and came to be known as Agas. Mir Syed Shamsuddin died in Zadibal and was buried at Astan e shareef, Zadibal, but due to political opposition his coffin was taken to Chadoora tehsil in Budgam district. His son Syed Daniyal took over his job after his death and is buried at Dab, a village in Ganderbal.
