Hamiddudin Nagauri’s Tomb


The most famous of the tombs is the mausoleum of Qazi Hamiddudin Nagauri. The mausoleum is considered to be one of the finest in western Rajasthan. The gateway to the shrine is magnificent and almost a monument in its own right. This Sufi saint came to Rajputana from Baghdad. There is a mosque within the complex which is said to be in possession of some unspecified holy relic brought by the Qazi (cleric) from Baghdad. The festival of Urs (commemoration of the death anniversary of a saint) is also held here and attracts devotees to his dargah (shrine) from all over the country. Sufi saints like Hamiddudin came to India before the Turkish conquest which began in the latter half of the 12th century. Unlike the mission of the invaders, the Sufis’ purpose was that of universal peace. They were great spiritualists, and Hindus as well as Muslims were attracted to their movement because adherents of other religions did not have to renounce their faith to pray at their shrines. The Sufi saints were known for their tolerance and liberal outlook.
