URS-E- HAZRAT NIDAMUDDIN AULIYA(R.A)

Delhi's Nizamuddin Dargah.
Urs-e-Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya(R.A)
In Arabic Urs means "wedding" and its represent the gathering of the lover with the beloved "God". In Sufism a saint's death is celebrated, not mourned.
When Nizamuddin Auliya(R.A) pass away He was buried in the same chamber where he meditated.The Urs(death anniversary) of the 14th century sufi saint's Hazrat Shaik Khwaja Syed Muhammad Nizamuddin Auliya(R.A) is celebrated every year from 17th Rabiussani to 19th Rabiussani. The Urs celebration program conducted by the general secretary of Majar committee. The Urs celebration of Nizamuddin Auliya(R.A) include the program such as Quran Khani, Qawwali by the great Qawwal of India, Mushaira and Ruhani Ijtima during the period. Prominent Ulema and the Scholars addresess the program. Distribution of food( Langar) take place at the end of the program in Mehfile Qul.
Generally people came to His Dargha Sharif from all part of the country to pay homage throughout the year. But specially on the time of annual Urs celebration people of different cast and creed visit to His shirin to pay homage to there beloved saint. We saw the gathering looks as a Mela, people put there stall near the Dargha Sharif and sell flower, cloths(chader for Dargha Sharif), perfume(Attar), and different type of eating food for the visitors.
