Permissibility of Celebrating Urs (Death Anniversary) of Saints

Question:

786,

What is the permissibility of celebrating a Urs of a saint? Was this a practice of Prophet SAW or the Tabieen? Some activities look like it comes from Hindu traditions e.g. carrying chaddar around anti-clockwise, placing of garlands etc.

Answer:

There is already more than plenty of material on this issue available online. Keep what does not cause you misgivings and avoid what causes you misgivings.
