The construction of Peshawar's Mahabat Khan Mosque has been attributed to him by scholars on verbal tradition; building a mosque is patronage and names no school. His father was an Iranian noble of Jahangir's court, and family background and Mughal office settle nothing under the founder rulings. Wikidata carries no religion statement for him, and his father's item files Islam generically, which is structured data and settles nothing in any case. His faith is therefore recorded as unknown.",
