s. m, The grain heap after threshing and winnowing;—(M.) A yearly gift to a spiritual teacher (murshid). The Murshids go around to their disciples' houses and demand their buhal in the most shameless manner, and even carry off articles by force if refused. If the disciples are slow in giving, the murshids curse them and heap most filthy abuse on them. Refusals are very rare. The murshids known as phulsagewalas, i. e. who give amulets to their disciples, are notorious for this kind of extortion:—buhal ḍe ná táṇ jhuge kuṇ bhá lendáiṇ. Give the buhul, if you do not I will set fire to your house. This is a mild specimen of the way in which murshids stimulate their disciples.
