A Legacy Rooted in Faith & Service

In 1939, Maulvi Mohammad Omer envisioned more than just a home - he planted the seeds of a living sanctuary where land, faith, and family would intertwine for generations to come.

Nestled along the sacred banks of the Ghaghara river in Harpur village, Siwan district, Bihar, Omer Cottage stands as a testament to the Sufi principle of khidmat (service) - where 40 bighas of fertile land sustain not just a family, but an entire community through the Khanqah in Chapra.

This is a story of how the earth beneath our feet, the water that flows past our door, and the faith that guides our hearts create a cycle of blessing that continues to nourish souls today.
