Nazar And Niyaz Difference
Generally speaking, “Nazar” (نذر) refers to a vow or commitment to perform a good deed or abstain from something for the sake of God. “ Niyaz” (نیاز) is a form of food offering made to honor religious figures or saints, with the intention of seeking blessings and expressing devotion . However, now-a-days these words often get mixed up and different people mean different things when they use these words. Therefore, it is better to ask the community doing such acts as to what do they mean when they say Food of Nazar or Food of Niyaz. Please see this for further details : Discussion 112930
