The Arabic word Template:Lang (Template:Lang "mausoleum"; plural: Template:Lang maqâbir) is derived from the word qabr, which means grave. Though Template:Lang refers to the graves of all Muslims, it refers especially to a Muslim cemetery. In some Islamic cultures (especially Indo-Pak-influenced) it refers also to the graves (raula or rauza) of religious figures or Waliyullahs considered to have dedicated their life to Islam, striving to be true Muslims and training others to follow Islam as preached by the Islamic prophet Muhammad.
In Asian countries, Template:Lang also refers to the dargah of Waliyullahs, Sufis, Sheikhs, Imams, Qutbs and Ghouses. There are many dargahs of Waliyullahs all over India, and their Template:Lang are found therein.[1]
