Sant Kabir Nagar district ((ヒンディー語:संत कबीर नगर जिला)) is one of the 72 districts of Uttar Pradesh state in northern India. Maghar City is the district headquarters. Sant Kabir Nagar district is a part of Basti Division. District Sant kabir nagar was created on 5 September 1997 from district Basti. including 131 villages from tahsil Basti, and 161 from tahsil Bansi of district Siddharth Nagar. The district is bounded on the north by Siddharthnagar and Maharajganj districts, on the east by Gorakhpur district, on the south by Ambedkar Nagar district and on the west by Basti district. The district occupies an area of 1659.15 km2. ==Etymology== The district is named after the 15th century mystic poet Kabir, who lived in Maghar in the district. One popular legend of his death, which is even taught in schools in India (although in more of a moral context than a historical one), says that after his death his Muslim and Hindu devotees fought over his proper burial rites. The problem arose since Muslim custom called for the burial of their dead, whereas Hindus cremated their dead. But this is totally beyond the logic. Instead there was a small book in which the Hindus and Muslims wrote all his sayings that they could remember; some even say a bunch of his favourite flowers were placed. The legend goes on to state that the fighting was resolved, and both groups looked upon the miracle as an act of divine intervention. In Maghar, his tomb or Dargah and Samādhi Mandir still stand side by side. तिनका कबहुँ ना निंदिये, जो पाँव तले होय । कबहुँ उड़ आँखो पड़े, पीड गहरी होय ॥ One should not abuse a blade of grass under one's feet. If that happens to strike on one's eye then there will be terrific pain. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sant Kabir Nagar district」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
