His sons Su malik and Mir Malik were deputed to collect tax from Gojal Upper Hunza valley. Once on their way back from Yishkook in Chapursan valley where they had gone to collect the tax, they liked the area and decided to live in Gulmit. After the death of Azur Jamshid, Su Malik, who was his elder son, rushed to Gilgit to sit on his father’s throne. He became the new ruler of Gilgit (1556-1578). According to Muhammad Zia, noted genealogy keeper (zoon) of Gulmit, after some time, Mir Malik, Qutlugh with the help of the locals captured Gulmit and surrounding villages during his stay in Gulmit, Mir Malik is believed to have built a mosque there which carried his name. Unfortunately, the mosque of Mir malik does not exist today. Qutlugh belonged to the charshambi kotor (clan) lineage of Wakhis of Gulmit.
