Mazar e Shareef of hazrat syed kangal shah vali Rh

BRIEF LIFE HISTORY OF SAINT HAZRAT SYED KHUDRATHULLAH SHAH KHADRI URF KANGAL SHAH VALI (R.A)

Hazrat Syed Khudrathullah shah Khadri Urf Kangal Shah Vali (R.A) is the progeny of Hazrat Syedna Ghouse-e-Azam Dastagir (R.z) Baghdad (IRAQ). His ancestors came to India before the establishment of Moghal Empire and settled in Sadhaura (Haryana) in North India. When the mother of the Moghal Emperor Akbar the great, Nawab Hamida Banu urf Haji Begum established a religious educational University, she appointed Hazrat’s grandfather Hazrat Syed Abul Makarim Khadri (R.A) its Vice Chancellor. All the Emperors of Moghal dynasty were the devotees of his family elders due to their educational and spiritual learning. After the death of Aurangzeb in 1707 the political conditions became worse, so the elders of his family migrated to different places. Hazrat Syed Khudrathullah Shah Khadri also left ShahJahanabad (New Delhi) and came to Kurnool in about 1725.

After coming to Kurnool he decided to stay at a lonely place ten Kilometers North-East from Kurnool. The place was full of wild animals. After his stay people began to come and settled there gradually and a new village by name Bawapuram came into existence. The people by their hard work and labour turned the barren land into agricultural land. All unforeseen calamities, epidemics and evil effects disappeared. The Nawab of Kurnool, Allaf khan-I, had deep devotion for hazrat. Often he visited, the place where his tomb stands today. The Nawab of Kurnool presented him the jagir of five estates around the village, but he refused to accept the jagir saying that it is a temptation for a saint.

The Nawab of Kurnool laid a road from Kurnool to Bawapuram so that the people of Kurnool get benefitted by his spiritual and educational enlightenment. He used to give sermons to his disciples. The saints, intellectuals even the Hindu saints and ascetics used to attend his assembly to hear his sermons. Even today irrespective of religion, cast and creed all peoples pay a visit to his tomb. Many miracles were unfolded by this holy personality. Even now the people who come to his tomb are not returned without their objective unfulfilled. He met the Holy Spirit in the year 1766. On the first day of the sixth month of Islamic calendar Sandal-e-Sharif took place and it performs by his 6^th grandson sajjade nasheen SYED AHMED MOHIUDDIN KHADRI . The people of all communities attend the urs and they offer their attendance and gifts according to their personal beliefs. The tomb of Hazrat Syed Khudrathullah shah Khadri (R.A) became the resort of all.
