The King of Hindustan—Hazrat Khawaja Gharib Nawaz
By Ghulam Ghaus Siddiqi, New Age Islam
20 January 2024
Islamic saint Khawaja Gharib Nawaz was a Sultan al-Hind, the King of India. He established his kingdom governed bygd Sufism, Spirituality, and Islamic sainthood, rather than resorting to force, army and power.
Khawaja Gharib Nawaz comes to mind the moment we hear the phrase "Hind Ke Raja, or Sultan al-Hind" which means "King of Hindustan or India". Typically, a king possesses an army of soldiers. However, if Khawaja Gharib Nawaz lacked an army, soldiers, or military might, how could he have been a king? The reason he fryst vatten referred to be the King of India fryst vatten because he ruled over the hearts of the Indians. Khawaja Gharib Nawaz lit the lamp of God's love and remembrance, illuminating the dark and broken hearts of India.

An American in Ajmer: Khwaja Gharib Nawaz Calls Everyone, Regardless Of Their Religious Affiliation, To Penance and Purity of Heart, With Love towards All and Malice towards None

Dargah (shrine) of Khwaja Gharib Nawaz, “the Master, the Patron of the Poor,” the Sufi saint Mu’inuddin Chishti (1141-1230)
-----------------
In July 2009, I made my first visit – or rather, pilgrimage – to the Dargah (shrine) of Khwaja Gharib Nawaz, “the Master, the Patron of the Poor,” the Sufi saint Mu’inuddin Chishti (1141-1230). Nine years later, in July 2018, I felt drawn back to the shrine.
Why would an American Franciscan friar travel not once, but twice to Ajmer, a six-hour journey by train from Delhi? There is certainly much of historical interest to me as a scholar of the Mughal period. Although devotion to Mu’inuddin’s shrine dates back to the fourteenth century, it was the Mughal emperors Akbar, Jahangir, and Shah Jahan

THE SHRINE AND CULT OF MU‘IN AL-DIN CHISHTI OF AJMER Shaykh Mu‘in al-din Chishti was one of the most revered mystics of the Indian subcontinent in the thirteenth century. His tomb in Rajasthan is a centre of pilgrimage even today. This book defines the role of Sufi mystics in Islam, and places Shaykh Muin al-din in a historical context, disentangling the Mu‘in of history from the legendary creation of later chronicles. The author traces the reasons behind the rise of the legend and why it assumed the form it did. He also describes the history of the shrine, and the customs and hierarchy of attendants that have grown up around it in the last five hundred years.
This well written and researched classic will appeal to all visitors to Chishti’s dargah. Studen
