The Muslim rishis: Nandarishi

III

Among the "Muslim rishis", the most famous rishi is Sheikh-nur-ud-din. Out of love and veneration, the Hindus and Muslims call him . The Kashmiri Pandits also call him Sahzanand.

The shrine of Nandrishi is located in  (tsrarishariph). This is a small village about five miles from Nagam. Both Hindus and Muslims go to this shrine to offer flowers.
