Chiro Kumar Dayal Baba Mastan (R.)

Hazrat Kazi Shah Mofazzal Hossain (R.), publicly Hazrat Jamir Shah Mastan (R.) (arrival: 9-11-1833 AD; passing: 18-09-1932 AD), the crest-jewel of the assembly of saints, the helmsman of the four tariqas, the Naqshbandi, chiro-kumar (forever celibate), the oppressed mujaddid — is known as Dayal Baba Mastan (R.).

He came to this land from the distant province of Yemen to preach Islam. His ancestors came to Bangladesh with Hazrat Shah Jalal (R.). It is heard that he lived 178 years. He remained unmarried, and he never even saw his mother's face. It is said that his eyebrows were quite long, and he kept them tied up. He was possessed of miraculous powers.

Dayal Baba Mastan (R.) is one of the chief reasons the people of Muradnagar, Comilla — a land steeped in heritage — are so utterly simple, guileless and God-fearing.

The sacred Urs Mubarak begins every year on 28, 29 and 30 January, a tradition running since 1858. At the end of the last night, after the Akheri Munajat (closing prayers), tabaruk will be distributed.

The chief khadem (custodian) is Hazrat Kazi Shah Golam Mostofa Abul Kashem Mastan (R.).
