It is believed that devotees who pray earnestly at the Dargah, never go back empty handed. No prayer of devotees coming to the Dargah with faith goes unanswered. Even the Emperor Akbar came to the Dargah to offer prayers for a son and it was indeed answered. The Indo-Islamic architecture of the Dargah is notable. Urs is an important fair celebrated at the Dargah every year, and many devotees come from far and wide to participate in the fair. The fair commemorates the death anniversary of the saint.
