The complex features tombs, a mosque and Indo-Islamic architecture and is an important pilgrimage centre and historic landmark closely associated with the medieval history of Hansi.

Visitors can walk through the shrine courtyards, view the decorated tombs of the four saints, observe prayer activities and experience a calm devotional atmosphere.

Char Qutub Dargah commemorates four Sufi saints of the Chishti order - Jamal-ud-Din Hansvi (a disciple of Baba Farid), Burhan-ud-Din, Qutb-ud-Din and Nur-ud-Din - who lived between the 12th and 14th centuries. Jamal-ud-Din Hansvi is regarded as an important early Sufi figure of Hansi. The shrine complex developed over centuries and includes tombs and a mosque reflecting the medieval Islamic heritage of Hansi, which was an important fortified town.

The dargah is a significant centre of Sufi devotion in Haryana, revered by visitors of all faiths. It is known for its spiritual atmosphere, qawwali during Urs celebrations, and as a symbol of the syncretic Sufi tradition of the region. The annual Urs of the saints is observed with prayers and gatherings.
