Kadam Rasul Dargah (কদম রাসূল দরগা) is located at the Nobiganj (নবীগঞ্জ) Bazar of Narayanganj District. It is believed that it contains a footprint (marked on a stone) of Prophet Mohammad (Sm). Lot of followers of Islam used to pay a visit here everyday to touch or kiss that footprint for blessings. The stone is cut as a shape of a footprint. Mainly the central shrine inside the premise is being used to keep this footprint.
It is believed that the footprint was bought from an Arab merchant by an Afghan chief named Masum Khan Kabuli at the early 17th Century. Apart from the footprint, the Kadam Rasul Dargah premise has a specious mosque inside. Lot of graves covered with green and red cloths. We are not sure about who are those people.
The main entrance of the Kadam Rasul Dargah has a lovely decoration. Its around a three storeyed building. The whole premise is placed over a very high plinth. The river Sitalakkha is flowing beside the Dargah.

[post_content] => Nimai Pirer Dargah is interesting as per the actual story behind this. Muslim people believe this as a Mazar (মাজার) of a saint named Nasiruddin Pir (নাসির উদ্দিন পীর). But the Hindu people believe this as their place as his name was Nimai Pir (নিমাই পীর). Whoever the guy was, actually he used to do meditation here hour after hour by sitting in one place. After his death, people started to believe that the guy Nimai Pir (নিমাই পীর) might have achieved some supernatural power and that's why they use to gather here for something that I don't know. A village fair uses to held here during the Joishtho (জৈষ্ঠ), a month from Bengali Calendar which is May/June in English Calendar.
Beside the Mazar(মাজার) a small moribund river is flowing named Tulshigonga (তুলসিগঙ্গা নদী). Very small one that looks like a canal. Also the flow of the river is very poor, can die in any day. You can have explore this river for few minutes during your visit here. Also, there are several old huge rain-trees available around the place.
There is a lower implant of stones besides Patharghata Lilavumi. It is known as the expectation of the Pir. He would sit on a stone inlay before delivering speech. During the month of Chaitra in 1
st Monday there used to be Milad mehfil in the mazar. Few days after the Milad there used to be a carnival where thousands of Hindu-Muslims used to gather. This carnival was known as Patharghatar Mela. A lot of stones are found lying in here. There is a saying that Pir Saheb bought the stones from the river in miraculous ways.
