Burhanuddin Gharib was an Indian Sufi who belonged to the Chishti Order . Burhanuddin Gharib studied under Nizamuddin Auliya, the sultan ul mashaikh of Delhi; and Saiad Mahomed of Karmania relates in the "Seyar ul Aulia" that Burhanuddin was invested with the mantle and cap, the symbols of the kaliphat, in succession to the sultan ul mashaikh. Other writers state that on the death of Shah Muntajab ud din at Daulatabad, his brother Burhanuddin was sent to succeed him, and was accompanied by 1,400 disciples. It appears more probable however, that Burhanuddin succeeded the Sultan ul mashaikh as kaliph, and that he emigrated to the Deccan when sultan Muhammad bin Tughluq transferred the capital from Delhi to Daulatabad. Mujud ud din, in his " Bakiat-el-Gharib", gives a biography of Burhanuddin; and haji Saiad Baksh and Shams ud din, the nephew of Hasan bin es Sanjari, were the particular friends of the saint. Burhanuddin allowed music and rejoicing in the religious exercises at his convent. He remained for some time at Daulatabad and then left for Roza (Khuldabad), where he died in AH 741 (1344 AD). Within the shrine are preserved some hair of the Prophet's beard. The shrine doors are plated with plates of metal wrought into fanciful designs of trees and flowers. There is a mosque in front of the dargah. The dargah attracts thousands of pilgrims each year for the Urus of the saint.
