Harzat Shah Ruknuddin Tola R.A

 Gulbarga,Karnataka, India

History

The shrine is dedicated to a 14th century Muslim saint, who spent around 40 years praying on the hillock, on the top of which the shrine is constructed.

Right next to this Dargah is the shrine of Shah Qadri, who was originally a Hindu, named Rama Rao. Qadri was a disciple of Hazrat Ruknuddin Tola and known for his spiritual accomplishments. It’s only because of this Brahmin that Hazrat Ruknuddin decided to give up non-vegetarian food. After his death, nobody was allowed to visit his shrine after consuming non-vegetarian food.

Once Khwaja Banda Nawaz Gesu Daraaz visited Harzat Shah Ruknuddin and when he saw him he said " Your worship is more than mine by one tola" and since then he was popularly known as Harzat Shah Ruknuddin tola.
