Hazrat Shahjalal

Sylheti Heritage Collection brings you the
heart of Sylhet and the heart of its people
which, is the Mazaar Sharif of the revered
Sufi Saint of Bangladesh Hazrat Shahjalal.

Hazrat Shahjalal was the Sufi practitioner
who travelled from Turkey to Sylhet to find
the land that matched the hand full of soil his uncle
gave in his hand and sent him off to search of his quest.

Shahjalal arrived in Sylhet 1303 with 360 companions
he met during his journey. He came over to seek justice
and came with him Sufism, where it flourished in the region.

He never returned to Turkey and lived his adult
life in Sylhet and that's where he remains at the
Mazaar Sharif, aka the Dorga in Sylhet town

In this book we cover Hazrat Shahjalal and his life and
world, for those who have never been or plan to visit,
and for those that visited but didn't get round to taking
part.
