Dargah Hazrat Burhan-e-Millat, Mufti-e-Azam (M.P.), located at Aaga Chowk in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, is a revered shrine dedicated to Hazrat Allama Mufti Burhanul Haque Jabalpuri, also known as Burhan-e-Millat. Born on 13 October 1894 (21 Rabiʿ al‑Awwal 1310 H), he belonged to a respected scholarly and spiritual family. After receiving his early education in Jabalpur, he pursued advanced studies in Bareilly Sharif under the guidance of Imam Ahmed Raza Khan.
