PEER HAJI ALI SHAH BUKHARI (R.A)

Haji Ali Dargah is the complex housing the tomb of the Muslim Saint Pir Haji Ali Shah Bukhari (R.A.). Along with the tomb, there is also a Masjid at Haji Ali. This monument has been sentinel to the shores of Mumbai since a long time. Sayyed Peer Haji Ali Shah Bukhari, who gave up all his worldly possessions before making a pilgrimage to Mecca. Hailing from Bukhara (present day Uzbekistan), Bukhari travelled around the world in the early to mid 15th century, and then settled in present day Mumbai.

Once the Saint saw a poor woman crying on the road, holding an empty vessel. He asked her what the problem was, she sobbed that her husband would thrash her as she stumbled and accidentally spilled the oil she was carrying. He asked her to take him to the spot where she spilt the oil. There, he jabbed a finger into the soil and the oil gushed out. The overjoyed woman filled up the vessel and went home.

Later, Pir Haji Ali Shah Bukhari had a recurring and disturbing dream that he had injured Earth by his act. Full of remorse, he soon fell ill and directed his followers to cast the coffin carrying his body into the Arabian Sea. Haji Ali died during his journey to Mecca and miraculously the casket carrying his body, floated back to these shores, getting stuck in the string of rocky islets just off the shore of Worli. Thus, the Dargah was constructed there.

Additional Info: The Dargah is built on a tiny islet located 500 meters from the coast, in the middle of Worli Bay, in the vicinity of WorliThe accessibility to the dargah is very much dependent on the tides. As, the causeway is not bound by railings, when the causeway gets submerged during high tide it becomes inaccessible. Therefore, the dargah is accessible only during low tide.

How to Reach: The dargah is around 19 km from the airport and can be reached by taxi in about 45 mins. However best way is to take local train from Vile Parle and get down at Mahalaxmi station. From there the dargah is just a 5 min ride by taxi. Sharing taxis are available at Mahalaxmi station. Other take bus 351 going towards Mumbai Central depot and get down at Vatsalabai Desai Chowk/Sahakar Nivas stop. The dargah is hardly 10 mins walk from here.

ABOUT HAJJ

IHajj is one of the pillars of our faith. Hajj is the pilgrimage to the Holy land of Makkah. It is enjoined on a Muslim to go at least once in his life if one has the means. This means you would need to commit financially, physically and spiritually and also be of sound mind. This post would help you figure out where to start in preparing for Hajj and even some resources. The pilgrimage takes place in the last month of Islamic calendar Dhul-Hijjah and the rites are performed between the 8th and 12th days of the month. As it follows the lunar calendar, the dates change every year. The rites of Hajj date back to the Prophet Ibrahim (A.S). And while performing hajj, one would walk the path the blessed Prophet Muhammad ﷺ walked. Hajj is a total transformational experience. SubhanAllah! it is truly the journey of a lifetime.

MY HEART CRAVES FOR YOU, O MADINAH!..

I just want to be there. Always and forever.. In the comfort of the city of my beloved Salallahu alayhi wa sallam.. In the serenity of Taiba… O the one who receives an invitation to Madinah, You are more fortunate than anyone in this world… Every day in Madinah is blessed… Every breath you take in Madinah is blessed… Every blink of an eye in Madinah is blessed… Every gaze on the Blessed Green Dome is from the fortunes of Paradise… O the one who receives an invitation to Madinah, blessed are you, so envious I am of you… Every Salaam you say, every greeting you greet with, every word you utter is more blessed than my existence in any other place… اللهم كما رزقتنا سكني المدينة، فلا تحرمنا حسن الخاتمة فيها، والدفن في بقيتها، اللهم لا تبعدنا عن المدينة احياء و امواتا.. آمين O Allah, like how You have sustained us with staying in Madinah, then do not deprive us of a good end in it and being buried in its Baqi, O Allah, do not make us far from Madinah while we alive or while we are d

Zam Zam Well

Allah (the Glorified and Exalted) created the well to provide Hajira, the wife of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) (peace be upon him), and her baby Prophet Ismail (Ishmael) (peace be upon him) with water in the hot and dry valley they were in. In her desperate search for water, Hajira ran seven times back and forth in the scorching heat between the two hills of Safa and Marwa to provide for her baby who was dying of thirst. The Zamzam Well is located approximately 20 meters (66 ft) east of the Kaaba.

Taneem Mosque (Masjid Ayesha)

The mosque is roughly 4.5 miles (7.2 km) from Masjid al-Haram. This mosque is also known as Masjid Ayesha. “When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed his pilgrimage, he advised his companions to start with the Umrah and wait for the pilgrimage days to start on their major duty. However, Ayesha was on her menstrual period and was unable to perform the Umrah on her arrival. When she mentioned to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that she would go back having performed the pilgrimage only while others did both duties, he told her brother to take her to the nearest point outside of the Haram area. He took her to Taneem where she started her Ihram again and came back to perform the Umrah.
