Ullal Dargah: Now, no miracles; only clashes!

Mangaluru, Apr 30: Once upon a time, the Dargah or shrine of Sayyid Mohammed Shareeful Madani located at Ullal in Mangaluru taluk was famous for “beautiful stories of miracles and wonders.” Unfortunately, now it has turned into the epicentre of clashes between so called Sunni' groups in the region.

With the growing number of devotees thronging the shrine every year and the ever-increasing revenue, this religious tourism centre has emerged as a mini power hub'. However, many devotees of Ullal Dargah, which is known as the Ajmer of South India', are worried that it may lose its religious prominence if the same situation continues.

Internal bickering snowballing into major clashes, especially during the selection process of its president, is not new to this Dargah, wherein the incidents of stone pelting and using abusive words against each other by the followers of two groups are repeatedly occurring.

The latest incident of violence on the premises of Dargah and adjacent Juma Masjid, has caused further damages to its popularity and purity. Once again the police had to intervene to bring the situation under control.

Battle for power'

After the demise of Haji UK Ibrahim (2007), who served as the president of the management committee of Ullal Dargah for almost four decades, the battle for the president's post turned furious with followers of Kerala-based AP' (SSF) and EK' (SKSSF) groups making all possible efforts to keep the institution under their control.

The Dargah had witnessed clashes when Haji UK Monu and Haji US Hamza became presidents subsequently. However, this time (April 26) the situation was worse as the followers of AP group boycotted the selection process and then refused to accept the selection of Haji Abdul Rasheed, who enjoys the support of EK group.

On the same day, the AP group followers led by Ullal Khazi Sayyid Koorath Thangal held a separate meeting and declared their candidate Bukhari as the new president and also formed a new committee. This led to a clash to a fight between two groups.

Meanwhile, the video clips of Dargah devotees belonging to different groups using offensive words against each other have gone viral on WhatsApp and other social media. As part of precautionary measures, the police have locked up the office of the Darga committee temporarily.

Lets put it in a nut shell Khader is the only problem rest everything no problem if Khader is inspired by some false clergy let him keep it personal and not inflict on people. ullal is a place they don't want any organizations interfering they want be on their own, Khader has lost the battle last time in the juma case. he has a good platform to strengthen the party because on one side Rasheed is a congressman and in the other side mustafa is a congressman instead of taking advantage he is supporting a false clergy and causing all the nuisance in ullal .

when members of SSF wants a roudyshitter .Bhuhari wants to be a president of ullal dargha .. imagine of thier thinking is to Grasp power at any cost, Not worried which background he is from.. obviously people of ullal has to against it.. I think UT khader also should have done basic research before he could interfere & favor one side.. criminal entering politices is a common that everyone accepts without any choice.... but in Mosque Committe person with criminal background will never accept at any cost which lead to the situation getting worse.... shame at religious leader & Polictian who support such president.. SHAME on THEM...

Oh, wahabbis, don't act like the reformers of the society. Ask your gurus in Kerala to stop fighting in the name of Jinn Tawheed. Did you forget your own people fought in the dais (stage) for Jinn Tawheed? Don't you feel ashamed of talking about Sunni groups when you people were divided into more than 8 groups in the name of tawheed, whereas both sunni groups have same belief in Tawheed.

Seeking the help of Jinn is tawheed, whereas seeking the help of Auliyas is shirk. Oh wahabbis where are you people leading to ?

Babri masjid was demolished in 1992. Does it mean that no power for Allah ? So, commentators and Article Headline by ..., never to try to boil your seed by degrading the power of miracle of Auliyas.

Insha Allah, Truth will prevail soon and SK goondas will be going to suffer soon for their heinous act.

There is no difference between dargah and temple. Both make pooja by offering flower etc. Both make jathre(Uroos). Both make nerche (Harake). In islam no where taught like this. They make all this only for money.

SAUDIS say worship the one LORD ALLAH, who created U, Me and all that exists & follow prophet Muhammad pbuh.
IRAN says worship ALLAH, Follow prophet muhammad, Ask with ALI & they also ask with the imaams in the Graves and they have lot of SHRINE worship expecting BARAKAH from the auliyas. which they never said to do such worship for barakah.

NOW TELL ME which ways YOU guys are following... IRAN or SAUDI?

When our IMAAN in ALLAH becomes WEAK, not maintaining SABR & we tend to go & ask with the Creations of ALLAH... which is very dangerous to our FAITH. And our enemies deceive us very EASILY.

I request people to DEPEND on ALLAH alone. Every example on our life have to be cleared by Prophet Muhammad pbuh. he also said even if it is small issues, ASK with ALLAH alone.... ALLAH gives barakah when you really rely on HIM. He knows what is in your hearts .. without patience, some guys are going and following the shia style of worship

We should EXPECT such inner clash when leaders of our community Never encourage to ASK with ALLAH ALONE and are SILENCE and never try to UNITE our UMMAH ... instead dividing each other in the name of GROUP ideology.

DEAR MUSLIMS - READ QURAN with understanding, ALLAH guides those who look for his QURAN, understand it, ponder it... The more U ponder, the more U will depend on ALLAH. NO need for any intermediate. U will praise the auliyas of ALLAH & follow the ways they taught us and will never ask with them but U will only depend on ALLAH for your requirement & Barakah.

May ALLAH guide us all ..

Kotian,
How your religion is to be peaceful when you teach your crew to kill innocent no Hindus?
I also agree that most of the Indian Hindus likes peace but not your organisation.

Miracle is there in the Quran not in any idol or dargah... Better if people understand it for their success in this duniya and hereafter..
Here I saw many non muslim brothers confused with Sunni, AK, EK and so on.. Worshiping dargah is not at all Islamic.. Worship only ONE God. thats real Islam.. Regulate 5 times salah, Give zakaath/ sadqa, help each other to live peacefully and let other creations of Allah live peacefully.. Make this life worth living.. Thats what Islam teaches and Quran teaches and history teaches us..

There are some exceptions - some ignorant people dont want to understand this and always blaming Islam is their habbit whenever commenting.. Thats without proper knowledge of Islam. May Allah give hidaya to all of us..Ameen

This article is written by a pakka wahhabi girl with the only intention of creating Fitna. In the first para itself the writer is saying that the Darga was famous for \stories of miracles\" and not for real miracles. Strange that coastaldigest.com publishing these kinds of extremist Wahhabist articles these days without examining it. I am a big fan of CD since its launch. hope it will realise its mistakes and avoid unnecessary crtisicm of the groups of aalims."

The history of Muslims is full of violence. This is the good opportunity for Muslims to renounce their violent faith and embrace Hinduism the true religion of peace, and leader a dignified life instead of fighting in the name of AP, EK, PK, TK

Very sad. Ignorance at its peak.

Fooling ignorant people by any so called masjid management or by any greedy imaams is not at all appreciable. Either imaams of the Masjid or the management committee of the masjid should ENLIGHTEN the people on the basis of teachings of HOLY QURA'N and SUNNAH.

Why not leave shirk as Allah has ordered in his book.

Masjid is house of Allah which are to be 24x7 active with prayers, education and community development activities. No need of Dargas which is supporting shirk. Oneness of Allah, Tawheed is our requirement.

Community should not waste time and energy in fighting for unnecessary reasons.

It is not EK vs AP as mentioned but it is AP group vs rest.
In Ullal there are total 49 committee member elected of which 27 supports Rashid Haji means Rashid Haji has clear majority for Presidency.
And about President selected by Kazi Khoora Thangal and SSF is Bukhari who dont have the majority but also people know what his background is.
SSF people lost the election instead of handing over the power they forwarding a rowdy sheeter as president to create terror in Ullal for that one of Minister from region supporting SSF by sending Waqf officer to lock the Darga.
Instead of doing all this let all member sit together elect the President who has the majority

Nor was any miracles before or now everything was from allah but shaitan decieved them by making them believe it was from the dead saint syed madani.

Poor thinking n following the footsteps of shaitan always ends in greediness which leads to destruction.

Mangaluru, Nov 3: A quiet morning turned perilous for a farmer in Elathur, near Kinnigoli on the outskirts of the city, as a leopard attacked him while he was cutting grass. 

Ligori, a resident of Kalkare, was startled by the sudden assault and suffered injuries to his face but managed to escape and reach safety. He was promptly taken to the hospital for medical care.

Residents in Elathur have been on edge for over a week following reports of leopard sightings in the area. Today’s incident has heightened concerns among the local farming community, who now fear for their safety.

With a significant population of farmers in the region, villagers are demanding immediate action from the forest department to capture the leopard and ensure their safety. 

The community awaits a response, hoping for swift intervention to prevent further attacks.

Mangaluru: A heart-wrenching tragedy unfolded in the quiet Bellayuru village on the outskirts of Mangaluru as a man’s life ended on a railway track following an apparent double murder. Authorities from the Mulki police station identified the man as Karthik Bhat, 32, whose lifeless body was discovered on the tracks with his head positioned on the rail, indicating a tragic suicide.

Nearby, police recovered keys to a scooter and a house, which eventually led them to uncover a series of chilling events. Following the trail, officers located Bhat’s scooter parked near Mahammayi Temple. Inside the vehicle, they found documents confirming his identity, including an RC, insurance papers, and his driving license.

Their search continued to Bhat's home in Pakshikere, Kemral village, where they discovered a locked room. With the keys retrieved from the tracks, police unlocked the door, only to be confronted by a horrifying sight. The bodies of Priyanka (28) and her young son Hriday (4) lay in a pool of blood, pointing to a brutal murder that occurred just hours before Bhat’s suicide.

Initial investigations suggest Bhat, beleaguered by ongoing family disputes, committed the murders of his wife and son on the evening of November 8 before tragically ending his own life. A death note found in his diary hinted at his mental state and tragic intentions.

Priyanka’s family, residing in Shivamogga, was informed of the incident. The couple, married for six years, now leaves behind grieving relatives and unanswered questions. Police have initiated formal proceedings, collecting statements from family members as they continue their investigation into the tragic sequence of events.

Bengaluru, Nov 1: Hardline BJP leader and Vijayapura MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to "Nationalise Waqf Assets", alleging Waqf board of "blatant violation" in claiming of the lands of Farmers, temples and mutts.

Taking to his social media, Basanagouda Patil Yatnal posted on X, saying "I have written a letter to the hon'ble PM Shri Narendra Modi ji to Nationalize the Waqf Assets in view of the arbitrary, blatant violation in claiming of the lands of Farmers, Landowners, Temples, Trusts and Mutts across the country by the Waqf board. All the citizens of the country have equal rights on the land. If the motive of Waqf is welfare and social service, this has to be done without bias and religious discrimination as India is a secular nation."

Additionally, Vijayapura MLA also attached the letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his post.

Earlier, BJP MP Tejasvi Surya had accused the Waqf Board of encroaching on thousands of acres of farmers' lands with the support of the Karnataka government.

Surya stated, "There have been multiple press conferences and videos in the public domain where the Minister himself has admitted that these Waqf adalats are being conducted under the Chief Minister's instructions. This is a grave matter, where thousands of acres of farmers' lands are being encroached upon by the Waqf Board with the active support and collusion of the State Government."

He mentioned that, in recent days, farmers from various districts across Karnataka have reported that, without prior notice, ownership of their lands has been abruptly transferred to the Waqf Board.

Karnataka Minister Priyank Kharge criticised BJP MP Tejasvi Surya, claiming he has done nothing for Bengaluru. Kharge's remarks came in response to the BJP MP's accusations regarding Waqf Board land encroachment.

The Congress leader assured that the Karnataka government is committed to protecting farmers' properties.

Kharge further questioned the BJP's record on protecting temples during its previous government, stating that the Karnataka government is committed to safeguarding temples and common people's properties.
