Dilli Dur Ast

Thanks for that laddu (and wikipedia :P).

And what is exactly that was najis there?

Dead animals? if killed in the correct way, dead animals aren't najis, unless they are pigs and stuff.

Re: # 3

In Islamic law, najis (Arabic: نجس‎) are things or persons regarded as ritually unclean. According to Shi'a Islam, there are two kinds of najis: the essential najis which can not be cleaned and the unessential najis which become najis while in contact with another najis.

Contact with najis things brings a Muslim into a state of ritual impurity (najasat), which requires undergoing purification before performing religious duties, such as regular prayers.

Kedar,

Thanks, man.

@Laddu

Forgive my ignorance, but what are 'najis'?

Yes, the surrounding place is dirty, no doubt, but I found the dargah fairly well maintained. This is, of course, my first visit to this dargah so maybe it was a lot better maintained earlier.

I went to the dargah last year after a long time and found that it has been defiled by the dirty and najis. They have turned that place into a butcher land with horrible smell of rotting flesh and stench which no amount of itr from shops could hide.

given a chance I would relocate the ghetto that has cropped wildly away from the dargah.

Even the dargah is so badly maintained and found it to be very depressing - there was no elevating thought and this shows that the place has been defiled by najis and impure people.

Shoaib, it was a good read. You have good observation power. It was well written and droll too.
