Sylheti Heritage Collection brings you the heart of Sylhet and the heart of its people, which is the Mazaar Sharif of the revered Sufi Saint of Bangladesh Hazrat Shahjalal.
Hazrat Shahjalal was the Sufi practitioner who travelled
from Turkey to Sylhet to find the land that matched the
hand full of soil his uncle gave in his hand and sent him
off to search of his quest.
Shahjalal arrived in Sylhet 1303 with 360 companions
he met during his journey. He came over to seek justice
and with him came Sufism, where it flourished in the
region.
He never returned to Turkey and lived his adult life in
Sylhet and that's where he remains at the Mazaar Sharif,
aka the Dorga in Sylhet town
In this book we cover the Lakri Tura, the wood cutting
ceremony for the commemoration of Hazrat Shahjalal's
death; for those who have never been or plan to visit,
and for those that visited but didn't get round to taking
part.
