The year of birth of Jhulelal is not known but it is has been found that he was born during 10th Century. This was the period when Sindh came under the rule of Sumras. Sumras were liberal to all other religions. However an oppressor named Mirkshah was threatening Sindhi Hindus to either convert to Islam or else they will have to face the death.

Sindhis prayed and pleaded to the river God to secure them from this compulsion. There prayers were heard in forty days. River God promised them that the divine child would be born in Nasarpur to save them from the tyrant. The child was known as Saint Jhulelal.
