Some Famous People called Ali Shah

Ali Adil Shah I

Ali Adil Shah I (1558–1579) was the fifth Sultan of Bijapur Sultanate.

On the day of his coronation Ali abandoned the Sunni practices and reintroduced the Shi’ah Khutbah and other practices. The Persian doctors of religion were granted full freedom to preach the Shi’ah doctrine and were paid by the State for their missionary activities.

The new Sultan restored back to power the Afāqis while relegating the Deccanis to a position of insignificance. He subverted all the dogmatic experiments which his father had practiced.
