The Sheikhul Alam Cave, also known as the cave of Hazrat Sheikh Noor-ud-din Noorani (RA), is a revered site located in the Budgam district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. Hazrat Sheikh Noor-ud-din Noorani, also known as Nund Rishi or Sheikh-ul-Alam, was a 14th-century Kashmiri Sufi saint and mystic who played a pivotal role in the spiritual and cultural life of Kashmir. He is considered the founder of the Rishi order in Kashmir, which emphasizes simplicity, compassion, and love for nature. The cave is located near Chrar-e-Sharief, a town in Budgam that is also home to the famous Chrar-e-Sharief shrine, where the saint’s mausoleum stands. The cave is believed to have been a place of meditation for Sheikh Noor-ud-din Noorani, where he sought solitude to pray and connect with the divine. The location is not only significant for its religious importance but also for its natural beauty. Surrounded by the scenic landscapes of Kashmir, the cave and the nearby shrine attract pilgrims and tourists alike, who come to pay their respects to the saint and experience the tranquility of the region.
