🌹🌹🌹 The most prominent event celebrated at Nagore Dargah is the Kanduri festival (Urus Mubarak), a fourteen-day commemoration of the death anniversary of Shahul Hamid. Common worship practices at Nagore dargah include the presentation of offerings, accompanied by the playing of musical instruments like nadaswaram, typical of Hindu religious tradition. The Shifa Gunta, a pool within the precincts of the dargah, is considered sacred; pilgrims take a holy dip in it. The hereditary board of trustees performs all the official and religious duties of the dargah. The governance and upkeep of the dargah are overseen by an 11-member board of trustees, which operates under a court-decreed scheme established by the Madras High Court. Kanduri festival is a 14-day annual event celebrated during the urs (death anniversary) of the saint. The festival is celebrated in commemoration of the anniversary of the saint's death, and pilgrims participate in the rituals and rites. The word kanduri is derived from the Persian word for table cloth. The festival is also called Qadir Wali Ke Fande festival. A saffron flag-carrying ceremony is also observed, during which a flag is carried from a devotee's house to the dargah, accompanied by a procession in streets. The flag is hoisted on a tree known as Fande ka Fahad by a Sirang (hereditary trustee) who is assisted by twenty assistants.

AL Hamdu Lillah... Sacred Places are always Holy. It was my first time... I visited dargah and seeked blessings and told my sorrows and issues to have/get a calming solution after. In Sha Allah.. Well Dargah is well built but not managed well. There is AC but not working anymore now, lack of cleanliness in Dargah Surroundings, also you can see wastes and bad smells in and out of dargah too. So much rupees they Get.. What they do of that... No any Madrasas.. No any school or other any kind of institutions. Unhygienic conditions and lack of cleanliness made me very very much upset. And the people roaming around there who are known as Khuddam and whatever else are same to that ajmer and other Dargahs. They play with money and don't have ikhlas. Remember one more thing too... There are a lot of room facilities nearby Dargah... As dargah is just some steps distance from Nagore Railway station. But food around dargah is not so well... Not much good restaurants or hotels are there. Any how you can manage with it by bringing your own or adjusting from Dargah surroundings itself.

Definitely a good place to visit, railway station and bus stand are within 600mts. And within 1.5 km you can reach Nagore sea shore. All you should aware of this place is, don't ever trust anyone both outside and inside the dhargah. If any of the shopkeepers approach you to offer some service like "leave your chappals here". Don't do it. Chappal stand is available in dhargah itself. And don't buy anything from those shops while entering dhargah. People inside the dhargah says to do some silly things in the name of almighty and force you to offer hundreds of money to them, that to in the name of almighty. So, of you want to visit this place, don't ask any help with the people around there. You simply walk inside and worship, if anyone calls you to do some stuffs in the name of god, Don't go with them. I can't believe why these like people are present inside this holy place. Someone having enough power should make this thing correct.

Visiting Nagore Dargah in Nagapattinam District back in 2016 was a profound experience. This sacred site, housing the tomb of the Sufi saint Shahul Hameed, resonates with history and spirituality. The seamless harmony between the rituals of Sufi Islam and Hindu traditions is a testament to the peaceful coexistence of religions. Witnessing the Kanduri festival, a vibrant fourteen-day celebration honoring Shahul Hameed, was awe-inspiring. The dargah’s serene ambiance, the sacred Shifa Gunta pool, and the blend of cultural practices, including musical offerings reminiscent of Hindu traditions, offered a glimpse into the unity of diverse beliefs. A must-visit for anyone seeking a deeply enriching and spiritually fulfilling pilgrimage.
