Dastgeer Sahib

Dastgeer Sahib is a 200-year-old Sufi shrine that is considered one of Srinagar's oldest spiritual destinations. The shrine was allegedly built by the philanthropist Mir Husain Qadri in 1845, according to popular belief.

Khwaja Sanaullah Shawl expanded the structure in 1877. The strange aspects of this shrine rarely had any analogs, since it was covered with a traditional Khatamband ceiling with several crystal chandeliers and encircled by internal walls ornamented with papier mache finishing. Dastgeer Sahib, on the other hand, was severely damaged in a fire that occurred in 2012. The shrine has been restored to its former form, and it now houses magnificent relics of Sheikh Syed Abdul Qadir Jelani.
