Dargah Char Qutub

Location

Towards the west of the town lie four shrines in the memory of four Sufi saints, namely Jamal-ud-din Hansi (AD 1187 – 1261), Burhan-ud-din (AD 1261 – 1300), Qutub-ud-din Munawar (AD 1300 – 1303), and Nur-ud-din (AD 1325 – 1397).

These were Sufi saints who were given the title of Qutubs, and this monument is the final resting place for them. The tomb itself is connected to a small mosque which in turn leads to a larger mosque built by Feroze Shah Tughlaq. There are more tombs within the complex: the tomb of Mir Tijarah (the chief purveyor of Sultan Hamid-ud-din of Hansi), Mir Alam’s tomb and that of Begum Skinner.
