Very Holy and pious place.. You will feel very positive vibes but the place is very very crowded and the main MAZAAR is extremely crowded… The only thing I didn’t like was people over there asking for money and please beware of the pickpockets( every one from guides to saints were giving me this advice there). But I felt very calm and composed after visiting there

MashaAllah one of the most crowded religious places in India. People from every community come here to pray. I came here for the first time in my life and I liked it very much. There are two “DEGs” in the dargah in which langar is made. properly maintained. Too much rush on the weekend. Most of the people come here on every 6th of the Islamic month.

Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti

Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti also known as Moinuddin Hasan Chishti was born in 1141-42 CE around Sijistan (modern-day Sistan), Iran.

Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti began residing and preaching in Ajmer after Muizuddin Muhammad bin Sam of Ghor defeated Prithviraj Chauhan in the Second Battle of Tarain (1192) and established his dominion in Delhi.

His spiritually enlightening speeches quickly gathered the local inhabitants, as well as monarchs and nobles, peasants, and the impoverished from far and wide.
Muhammad bin Tughlaq, Sher Shah Suri, Akbar, Jahangir, Shah Jahan, Dara Shukoh, and Aurangzeb have all visited his shrine at Ajmer.

In the early 13th century, Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti settled in the Indian subcontinent, where he established the famed Chishtiyya Sunni mystical order.

In medieval India, this tariqa (order) became the dominant Muslim spiritual organization, and many of the most renowned and venerated Indian Sunni saints, such as Nizamuddin Awliya and Amir Khusrow, were Chishti.

Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti was neither the founder nor inventor of the Chishtiya order of mysticism, as is commonly assumed.

Prior to his birth, the Chishtiya was already a well-established Sufi order, having evolved from the earlier Adhamiyya order, which attributed its spiritual ancestry and titular name to the early Islamic saint and mystic Ibrahim ibn Adham.

However, in the 13th century, the Persians brought the order to the Indian subcontinent after the saint is said to have had a dream in which the Prophet Muhammad came and urged him to be his "representative" or "envoy" in India.
Khwaja Muinuddin Chishti founded his khanqah in Ajmer to help the poorest people in the community.

Every year after his death, an annual assembly (Urs) is conducted in Ajmer. It is the most widely practiced Sufi order.
Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti's immediate student was Qutubuddin Bhaktiyar Kaki.
Qutub-ud-din Aibak began construction of the Qutub Minar in his honor since politics and religion were so closely interwoven.

Sultan Iltutmish later dedicated the architectural masterpiece to Khwaja Qutubuddin Bakhtiyar Kaki, his saint.
