Urs (from Arabic: عرس‎, literally "wedding") is the death anniversary of a Sufi saint in South Asia, usually held at the saint's dargah (shrine or tomb). South Asian Sufis being mainly Chishtiyya, refer to their saints as lovers and God as beloved. They refer to their death as wisaal (union with the beloved) and death anniversary as urs (marriage).
Urs rituals are generally performed by the custodians of the shrine, and may often include the singing of religious music such as qawwali.According to some historians, Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti, the founder of the Chishti order, came to India from Persia as a member of Muhammad Gouri's invading army in 1191.

As a result, the devotees consider the first five days of Rajab as auspicious. Devotees from all over the country flock to the Khwaja's tomb, known for its power to fulfill wishes, and tie a kalawa on the pillars when seeking a favour. They are expected to untie the knot once their request has been grante
