HAZRAT SUFI INAYAT KHAN was born in Baroda on July 5th, 1882 and passed away in Delhi on February 5th, 1927. He was a preeminent Sufi mystic and master of his time, and an accomplished classical musician. As a young man his music was acknowledged in the courts of princely India, and he was at the same time a devoted mureed of his Murshid, Shaikh Syed Abu Hashim Madani of the Chishtia silsila. In 1910, responding to the words of his Murshid to "Fare forth into the world, my child, and harmonize the East and West with the harmony of thy music", he sailed with his brothers to the West where he worked for the rest of his life sharing the universal Sufi message of spiritual liberty based on love and respect for fellow humans, recognition of the unity of religious ideals, cultivation of the art of personality, and appreciation of the sacred nature of music.

The DARGAH OF HAZRAT SUFI INAYAT KHAN is offered to all people without regard to differences of religion, creed, gender, caste, class, nation or race. A place of prayer and meditation, silence and devotion, it is a ground for interfaith and intercommunity harmony and understanding, a spiritual center, an akasha for the divine radiance that bestows love, harmony and beauty on all.
