Panj peer (or panj pīr), meaning the five saints in Persian, were Islamic saints who overlapped in late 12th and early 13th centuries in northwestern India. They were:

Mu'in al-Din Chishti (1143 – 1236), Ajmer, Rajasthan, also known as 'gharīb nawāz'
Qutb al-Din Bakhtiyar Kaki (1173 – 1235), Mehrauli, Delhi
Farid al-Din Ganjshakar (1179 – 1266), Pakpattan, Punjab
Baha al-Din Zakariya (1182 – 1268), Multan, Punjab
Lal Shahbaz Qalandar (1177 – 1274), Sehwan, Sindh
The above Sufi saints are mentioned (alongside Nizam al-Din Awliya) in the great love-epic of the Sufi poet sayyid Waris Shah, Heer Ranjha, which opens with an invocation to them.
