Shahi Chadar

The ‘Gilaaf’ which is beingoffered on Kabe-Sharif is also for respect and protection. Since from the period of Sarwar-E-Qainat (S.A.W.) it has been resumed and as per certain descriptions Hazrat Ibrahim(A.S.) offered ‘Gilaaf’ on Kabe-Sharif’ at first. The detail in “Roohul-Bayan” is that Sheikh Abdul Ghani Nabansi (R.A.) said in “Kash funnar onn as-habul quboor” that the custom of laughing is ‘sunnat’. To make a dome, to offer ‘Gillaf’ (chaadar) on the tombs of Auliya, Suleha and Ulama is legal. It intends that to be respected by the people. So that, the people does not think this tomb low and like this to light on the tombs (mazaar) of Auliya and Saleha is also a kind of respect and care. Because it is legal and cannot be forbidden.

This is the court (Darbar) of Khwaja Syed Moinuddin Chishty (R.A.), “Gharib Nawaz”. The silver fencing was presented by the emperor Shahjahan over here. The chadar on the Mazaar Sharif is seen here which is offered by devotees of Khwaja Sb. (R.A.) It is a kind of Nazrana-E-Aqidat’ (Gift) which can be offered personally towards the Darbar.

The measurement of this chadar is 42 mts. long, covers entire Mazaar-Paak. So, it is called as the dress of mazar-paak.

Flowers, itre, rose-water are also being offered along with the chadar.

Ordinary or costly clothes are being used for this chadar on the costly chadar embroidery works, pearl and silver wires are being used and Yaseen-Sharif, name of the Panjetan Paak (A.S.), Macca, Medina & Dargah are embroidered.

Devotees offer the chaadar as per their capacities. Generally, people use to offer small chaadar as per capacity, but as it is not enough for the entire Mazaar-Paak so we use to offer small chaadar as per capacity, but as it is not enough for the entire mazaar-paak so we use to send to the other Mazars all over the World.

You can also offer this kind of Gift AJMER CHADER the “dress of Mazaar Paak” towards the Darbar either during the auspicious occasion of the Ajmer Urs-Mubarak or in any ordinary days.
