Come on shrines and making woves have become an important part of the social life of the people. Not only Muslims but also non-Muslims came on shrines and follow the teachings of the Sufis in every sphere of life. Female came on shrines in great numbers than male because they have great belief on woves and follow the teachings of the predecessors (peers) blindly. Fake peers are also found in great numbers and they deceive people through different ways. It has become an important issue in our society and increasing with the passage of time. On the other hand, people have become materialistic and leave religious values. They are accepting wrong beliefs, values and teachings which presented by the fake religious leaders and predecessors of the Sufis shrines. Therefore, present research study was conducted in sociology. Present study was conducted in district Jhang on the shrines of Sultan’s Sufi Saints.
