The Haji Ali Dargah (Urdu: حاجی علی درگاہ , Marathi: हाजी अली दर्गा, Hindi: हाजी अली दरगाह, Gujarati: હાજી અલી દરગાહ) is a mosque and dargah (tomb) located on an islet[dubious – discuss] off the coast of Worli in the Southern part of Mumbai. Near the heart of the city proper, the dargah is one of the most recognisable landmarks of Mumbai.
An exquisite example of Indian Islamic architecture, associated with legends about doomed lovers, the dargah contains the tomb of Sayed Peer Haji Ali Shah Bukhari.
The Haji Ali Dargah was constructed in 1431 in memory of a rich Muslim merchant, Sayyed Peer Haji Ali Shah Bukhari (R.A.), who gave up all his worldly possessions before making a pilgrimage to Mecca. Hailing from Bukhara, in the ancient Persian Empire and now in Uzbekistan, Bukhari travelled around the world in the early to mid 15th century, and then settled in Mumbai.
As per the legends, surrounding his life, once the Saint saw a poor woman crying on the road, holding an empty vessel. He asked her what the problem was. She sobbed that her husband would thrash her since she had stumbled and accidentally spilled the oil she was carrying. He asked her to take him to the spot where she lost the oil. There, he jabbed a finger into the soil and the oil gushed out. The overjoyed woman filled up the vessel and went home.
Alī ibn Abī Ṭālib (Arabic: علي بن أﺑﻲ طالب, Transliteration: ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib, [ʕaliː ibn ʔæbiː t̪ˤɑːlib]; 13thRajab, 24 BH–21stRamaḍān, 40 AH; approximately October 23, 598 or 600 or March 17, 599 – January 27, 661). The son of Abu Talib, Ali was also the cousin and son-in-law of Islamic prophet Muhammad, ruling over the Islamic Caliphate from 656 to 661, and was the first male convert to Islam.Sunnis consider Ali the fourth and final of the Rashidun (rightly guided Caliphs), while Shias regard Ali as the first Imam and consider him and his descendants the rightful successors to Muhammad, all of which are members of the Ahl al-Bayt, the household of Muhammad. This disagreement split the Ummah (Muslim community) into the Sunni and Shia branches.
Muslim sources, especially Shia ones, state that since Muhammad's time, Ali was the only person born in the Kaaba sanctuary in Mecca, the holiest place in Islam. His father was Abu Talib and his mother was Fatima bint Asad, but he was raised in the household of Muhammad, who himself was raised by Abu Talib, Muhammad's uncle, and Ali's father. When Muhammad reported receiving a divine revelation, Ali was the first male to accept his message, dedicating his life to the cause of Islam.

Hey, hey Julia, you're acting so peculiar
I know I'd never fool you in a million years
A horn section you resemble and your figure makes me tremble
And I sure would like to handle what's between your ears
And you're a temptation to a man
And I could not resist you and I won't if I can
You're so unexpected and whatever you injected
Made me feel how I felt when I sang
Hey, hey Julia you're acting so peculiar
I know I'd never fool you in a million years
You're a strain on my eyeses and you're full of surprises
Love materializes soon as you come near
There's a sensation you create
Robs me off my sleep and I've forgotten the date
My head started spinning soon as you started singing
And like a fish I just froze to the bait
Hey, hey Julia with your crazy sense of humor
You turn fact into rumor soon as you come near
A horn section you resemble and your figure makes me tremble
And I sure would like to handle what's between your ears
You're a temptation to a man
And I could not resist you and I won't if I can
You're so unexpected and whatever you injected
Made me feel how I felt when I sang
Julia, you're a danger just like giving sweets to strangers
Working all day for a mean little man
With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan
He's got me running 'round the office like a dog around a track
But when I get home,
You're always there to rub my back
Hey Julie,
Look what they're doing to me
Trying to trip me up
Trying to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through without you around
Hours on the phone making pointless calls
I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all
Sometimes I catch myself staring into space
Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face
Hey Julie,
Look what they're doing to me
Trying to trip me up
Trying to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through with out you around
No, I'd never make it through with out you around
How did it come to be
That you and I must be
Far away from each other every day?
Why must I spend my time
Filling up my mind
With facts and figures that never add up anyway?
They never add up anyway
Working all day for a mean little guy
With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie
He's got me running 'round the office
Like a gerbil on a wheel
He can tell me what to do
But he can't tell me what to feel
Hey Julie,
Look what they're doing to me
Trying to trip me up
Trying to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through with out you around
No, I'd never make it through without you around
HOW'YA JULIA
(Moran/Carton)
How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one
How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one
Did you see yer one with Gay-bo, talkin' on the Late,
Late Show
She was tellin' us about the things that happened long
How she loved the bishop and he loved her just as well
Only God knows will he go to Heaven or to Hell
He helped the starvin' millions and he got them food to
And the homeless Irish immigrants are livin' on the
street
And when it came to singin' his repertoire was vast
He swore that he'd be celibate he slipped and broke his
fast
Chorus:
Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off
with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are
rattlin' now
Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off
with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are
rattlin' now
Now when he was up in Galway takin' in the church
collection
His lover must be busy writing down her recollections
Like was the poodle black or white and did the moon
come out
I'll have to read this thing meself and find this
matter out
When you think about his logic sure its cars that come
to mind
Like the way he drove his Lancia to get to church on
time
A twenty four hour ****** job I did one down in Tuam
He wasn't such a slow coach when he got her in the room
Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off
with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are
rattlin' now
Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off
with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are
rattlin' now
Oh the blind and faithful followers are worried and
distraught
And the only thing that's botherin' them is that the
poor man he got caught
Chorus
Must be funny in the morning he'd be doin' the
consecration
After nights of long and passionate, unbridled
fornication
Sittin' in the chapel attendin' exposition
Dreaming Karma Sutra and his favorite position
How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one
How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one
Working all day for a mean little man

And I'd never make it through without you around
Hours on the phone making pointless calls
I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all
Sometimes I catch myself staring into space
Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face
Hey Julie,
Look what they're doing to me
Trying to trip me up
Trying to wear me down

And I'd never make it through without you around
No, I'd never make it through without you around
