Biography
Suusaandar was born in Ghalzur, southeast Seogwan, to a prosperous family. According to his autobiography, of which only fragments survive, Suusaandar had a heavy argument with his parents and siblings sometime in his late, causing him to willingly abandon his domicile and live on. He was soon made aware of the Erish-ashashu Fort atop the Pirig Mountain, where learned folk practiced zuhd and granted. He reached the fort on foot in half a year's time, and sought the guidance of a local  (scholar). A middle-aged man named Errabani Ninwahim ("Errabani of Ninwa"), offerred education to Suusaandar, which included the of the  (scripture) and of aspects of  (law). It is alleged that Errabani admired Suusaandar's enthusiasm in learning, so much as to reduce Suusaandar's household tasks, in outward discrimination against his fellow students. In his writings, Suusaandar claimed to have been inspired by his almsgivers, whose " was 's guidance" (2:272). He had also received occasional from Allah urging him to return downhill and return favors to the common people.

Once Suusaandar was proclaimed alim by Errabani at the end of his, he made journey back to his home city Ghalzur, in the search for his family. He made incremental stops and provided work in exchange for temporary. When he at last reunited with his family, he was considered unwelcome to the household. Interpreting his parents' inhospitality as the "deed of " (6:68), his faith was only reinforced. Suusaandar then became committed to , which he performed in a "practical" manner; that is to say, he relied on topical and  to foster a deeper understanding of Allah, rather than utilizing the Qeryana directly. His disciples were mostly rural Seogwanese, who, in contrast to the urban populace and despite Caliph Belrushu's campaign to proselytize them two centuries prior, clinged onto the. For his eccentric but largely effective methods of teaching, Suusaandar gained the trust of Awilea Huyihim, strategic advisor to Caliph Qudmarei.

Awilea entrusted to Suusaandar an official post in Baghathra, which itself had been occupied by the Caliphate since 1237. Suusaandar received there, and was declared a   of Nurshura District around 1330. The ongoing Baqri Uprising (1325–1381) however meant that Seogwanese nationals and their Sabbatarianism were not always respected. By learning conversational and oftentimes pretending to be a merchant, Suusaandar was able to earn the appreciation of the local populace. It is nowadays argued that Suusaandar was cognizant of his twofold purpose in spreading Sabbatarianism and in pacifying the people of Baghathra under the Caliphate's yoke. In his writings however, Suusaandar was adamant about serving only a spiritual mission:

"'My brothers, whether Nurshura today or tomorrow is subjugated by your wise generals, that troubles me not. My message to you has been a message of peace, and it would have been the same if I were Nurshuran, and you Ghalzuran. That Allah is the sole God, that all nations are His people, that we are all equal before Him: all that bears more value and strength and essence than my origins and my allegiances.' —Memoir 4:17"
