Festival

In 2014 during the observation of death anniversary of Ahmed Raza Khan (Urs-e-Razvi) at the Dargah-e-Ala Hazrat, Muslim clerics condemned the terrorism practiced by the Taliban and the ideology of the Wahhabi sect.[4] Although the Dargah was once the main site for the Urs-e-Razavi, the official Urs is also now observed in a dozen countries. This is due to the large crowds and the arrival of many scholars.[5]
