Who we are
The Guardians of the Sacred Threshold
Khadims of Dargah Saiyed Ali Mira Datar(r.a)
We are the Khadims — hereditary servants, spiritual guides, and descendants of the elder brother of Hazrat Saiyed Ali Mira Datar (R.A.) himself. For over five centuries, our family has guarded this holy shrine, guided every devotee, and carried forward the sacred duty entrusted to us by the saint and by Allah.
The word “Khadim” means “servant” — one who serves. But in the context of the Dargah Sharif at Unava, it carries a much deeper meaning. We assist devotees in their ziyarat, guide them through the correct procedures of visiting the Mazar Sharif, conduct prayers on their behalf, and perform the sacred spiritual treatments that have been passed down through our generations.
Our Sacred Responsibilities
Carrying Forward Five Centuries
of Unbroken Tradition
Every devotee who visits the Mazar Sharif is guided by a Khadim through the correct and respectful procedure of ziyarat — the sacred visitation of the holy tomb. The Khadim ensures that every visitor receives the full spiritual benefit of their visit, according to the proper etiquette and traditions of the Dargah Sharif.
Khadims follow ancient Quranic procedures — passed down through generations — to eradicate spiritual imperfections in the body caused by black magic, evil spells, evil curses, jinn possession, and other negative forces. These procedures are performed at the Mazar Sharif under the divine blessings of the saint.
Khadims offer prayers (dua) at the Mazar Sharif on behalf of devotees — both those present and those who cannot visit in person. When you come with a problem, the Khadim presents your need before the saint. When you cannot come at all, you can contact a Khadim directly and request that your dua be made at the Mazar Sharif on your behalf.
