| On the appearance of the
moon for the month of Rajab, there comes a change in daily routine
which is generally held at the Holy
Shrine. The main entrance of the Holy Tomb which in ordinary
days is closed at night, is kept open through out the day and
night (barring for 2 or 3 hours at night) during the six days
of Urs. All other daily and weekly programmes are suspended
and few functions and ceremonies commence from that night.
Annual Urs commences with Flag Hoisting at
Buland Darwaza on 25th Jamadi-us-Sani.
QUL DAY (FINAL DAY)
Qul ceremony takes place on the last
day of Urs which is also
the sixth day of the month of Rajab. This is considered to
be a very important day. After the morning prayer, people
start gathering the Holy Tomb.The activities include recital
of Quran, Darood, Shijra-e-Chishtia and other verses. People
also tie small turbans on each other’s head and pray
for the benefit of the people, for peace, prosperity and happiness.
