The pilgrimage of the Mughal princess Jahanara,
The following is an excerpt from Jahanara's biography of
Shaikh Muinuddm Chishti.titled Munis al Arwah (The
Confidant of Spirits):
After praising the one God this lowly faqira (humble soul) Jahanara
went from the capital Agra in the company of my great father
(Emperor Shah Jahan) towards the pure region of incomparable Ajmer
I was committed to this idea, that every day in every station I
would perform two cycles of optional prayer
For several days ... I did not sleep on a leopard skin at night, I did not
extend my feet in the direction of the blessed sanctuary of the revered
saving master, and I did not turn my back towards him. I passed the
days beneath the trees.
On Thursday, the fourth of the blessed month of Ramzan, I attained
the happiness of pilgrimage to the illuminated and the perfumed tomb
With an hour of daylight remaining, I went to the holy sanctuary
and rubbed my pale face with the dust of that threshold. From the
doorway to the blessed tomb I went barefoot, kissing the ground.
Having entered the dome, I went around the light-filled tomb of my
master seven
times.
Finally, with my own hand I put the finest quality of itar on the
perfumed tomb of the revered one, and having taken off the rose scarf that I
had on my head, I placed it on the top of the blessed tomb ...
