Takia of Abdulqadir Gilani • تهكیهی شێخ عبدالقادر گهیلانی
This easy-to-find Sufi takia of the Kasnazan order is a great spot to start learning about Sufism in the region.
It is said the Sheikh Abdulqadir Gilani prayed here for seven years, seldom eating. There is a spring whose water is said to nourish and suppress the appetite. The place is kept by Kasnazan Sufis.
Visitors come to pay respect at the cave, meet a Sufi elder for a prayer, have their festive Friday gatherings, or take the sacred water.
