The shrine of Hafiz Hayat is architecture, site and design wise a beautiful composition. It rests on a mound six feet high above the plain. The site consists of a haveli, baradari, mosque, four tombs of different proportions, some graves, seven waterholes and old trees. The place was initially the property of the then ruler Raja Kaladhvi and was encircled by a thick forest.
It was later settled by Hafiz Hayat when he aided people with his spiritual aura. Though the exact dates are unknown but according to one belief it was at the time of Emperor Jahangir when the saint contributed his entire land holding to the then state for the cause of education. The main campus of University of Gujrat has been constructed on the land donated by Hafiz Muhammad Hayat and is named after him.
