Ep-65 : Coming to Mazaar e shareef #DubiousMaqam
All throughout Iran and Afghanistan i have gathered around 15-20 sites only related to Maula ALi a.s. Just in Afghanistan alone, i have got around 4-5 Qadamgahs related to Hz ALi a.s and there is no denying the fact that Mazaar e shareef, where it is said that the body of Imam Ali a.s was secretly brought here from Iraq, is one of the most important Maqam related to Imam Ali a.s in Afghanistan.
Now whether this place is a burial place or not is still questionable which i have covered in upcoming videos but coming to Mazaar e Shareef felt like a dream come true. Really,...I was singing songs as i was slowely riding towards mazar,....
Byake bore ba mazaar mulla mohammad jaan,....You gotta listen to this song if you really like folk love stories.
Although I am a bathroom singer but i think i did a pretty good job. Coming in the videos as well.

Ep 66 : Zadian minaret and finding #LostMaqam burial site of Prophet Saleh a.s and debunking the myth regarding shrine of Hz Abu hurairah r.a in Zadian, a small hamlet in Balkh.
Balkh is truly remarkable. I couldn't believe that i will find here not one not two but three burial places attributed to ancient prophets. Can you believe that?
My purpose of going to zadian, a small town 40 kms north of balkh was where i wanted to go regarding a place that claimed to be the burial place of the sahabi Hz Abu hurairah r.a but as I rode to the village i found out that the main ziarat of that small town is not the sahabi, but the prophet Saleh himself. very close to the famous zadian minaret.
I was really amazed to find his grave site which is not mentioned in any site that i researches throughout years of online research.

As for the site claiming to be the site of the sahabi Hz Abu hurairah r.a i have absolutely no doubt regarding that this is not the site of the burial of the sahabi as i know for sure that Hz Abu hurairah was buried in Jannatul baqi in Medinah sahreef and not in Afghanistan. As to how this site came to have the name of Hz Abu hurairah r.a, i tried to find the answer to that question but couldn't as there was literally no one to talk to as it was really hard to even find the place.
Ep 67 Finding the #LostMaqam of Prophet Sheeth a.s in Balkh
Another prophet in balkh. This time it was prophet Sheeth a.s near the bala hissar (the great fort) of Balkh.
The stories of war and bandits that i heard from a local friend that i made onto my way to the shrine really gave me the chills as this locality was once home to the most cruel and barbaric people that lived in this area and how they used to really murder people for chump change. Thanks to the very tight security of Taliban all of those bad guys are gone now and peace has finally prevailed in the city after long years of war.
This is the shrine that is attributed to prophet sheeth a.s in balkh city.
