Mian Khaki Shah also started teaching the masses regarding Islam. In a short span of time, his fame spread all across the region.

The area, at that time was ruled over by Turks tribes who were allies of Mughals. In recognition of his services, Turks awarded him with vast fertile lands so that he can continue his job of preaching Islam without any hast of livelihood. He used to travel far and wide for preaching his mission. Once during such journey people of the area where village Khaki is situated nowadays, told him regarding the unavailability and shortage of drinking water. He prayed to Allah and dug a water well himself. Its been almost 300 years but that well is still watering thousands of people of the area. That water well is known as \u2018well of Khaki Shah\u2019. Since than name of the area also changed to his name and now called as \u2018Khaki\u2019.

Once again Turks allotted him a vast piece of land which is still in possession of his descendants.
