What does the Muslim title Mir e.g. Mir Sahib used in India signify?
Mir is a Kashmiri tribe in India and Pakistan. The word ''Mir'' is used as a respect for a person who is an in-charge, Head or Big-Landlord of a particular tribe, in India & Pakistan. So people use this word for respect when they call some one as ''Mir''. In urdu (language) ''Sahib'' means exactly the same as the word ''Mr'' in English. When you say ''Mr & Mrs'' in English then in Urdu language you say ''Sahib & sahiba''. Sahib for male and sahiba for female. So sahib is also a word used for respect in urdu. When ''Mir'' & ''sahib'' are used together that means you are calling that person with very respectfully. This is why ''Mir Sahib'' is used also for a religious person to show great respect.
