Story of the Hazrat Ali Dargah in Hyderabad<\/span><\/h2>\n

Yakut was a eunuch (a man who is employed to guard the women\u2019s living area) of the Qutub Shahi court. Once he fell ill and had a dream of a man in a green dress asking him to visit the Moula Ali hill. The man in his dream told- \u201cAli is waiting for you on the hill\u201d. Next morning, he visited the hill and saw Ali (God) sitting on the top of the hill. Yakut\u2019s illness got cured after his visit. And the people thought that the hill has healing power. <\/span><\/p>\n

Hearing the incident, the Sultan visited the hill and ordered to build Dargah. The stone where Moula Ali rested his hands was also kept with the shrine.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Hazrat Ali Dargah<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Hazrat Ali Dargah is built on the Moula hill, which is about 614 meters tall. It is the only Dargah dedicated to the son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad, who was also the fourth caliph (successor of Prophet Muhammad). <\/span><\/p>\n

One needs to climb 484 steps from the bottom of the hill to reach the Dargah. Also, there are 600 tombs in the area.<\/span><\/p>\n

The dargah has a beautiful interior, decorated with thousands of mirrors. It is also one of the 11 heritage sites in Hyderabad.<\/span><\/p>\n
