During his studies, he was put in charge of leading the "Langar Khana" for the feeding of the poor.[2]
Shah Qabool traveled upwards through Multan and Kashmir, near Haripur (Hazara) in a small village called Kokalyan.[2]
Shah Qabool died in 1767.[1][2] His shrine is located in the Dabgari area of Peshawar, where he lived. It is visited daily for reciting from the Quran.
