I remember the last time i covered the #LoveStoryMaqam in Iran which was Tomb of Shirin and Farhad in Azerbaijan region of Iran. I told you I'll tell you the reason why i hv been covering these #LoveStoryMaqam in the first maqam in Afghanistan. Well this is it, The hill of Bibi Mahroo where the tragedy happened to those who listened to their hearts. More coming in the video.
Ep 61 : #LoveStoryMaqam of Sher khan and Zeba in Golbahar
Reference : from the pdf 'The legends of Afghanistan' shared above.
The Telepathic love made Sher khan and zeba meet in Golbahar and following are the pictures of Golbahar. And it is really this place that they mey for the first time, cause i was able to fing sher khan khel as well kohna deh in the surrounding areas.
But unfortunately no one remembers their love story and there is no specific maqam dedicated to the pair. All I wanted was one maqam even a grave, that i could pinpoint and take coordinates. But unfortunately the locals have forgotten the story.
The reason why i keep talking about these #LoveStoryMaqam is also covered in the video. Coming soon...

Ep 69 #LoveStoryMaqam of Mulla Mohammad Jaan and Ayesha
If you are into music you gotta listen to the songs that Ayesha wrote in rememberance of Mulla mohammad Jaan, a song which is now without a doubt the most popular song in all over Afghanistan. Every person no matter what the age is know the story, or atleast the song, "Byake bore ba mazaar..."
https://youtu.be/kyoSM7Ur3Pw?si=fsQRGEAddVnJzZDI
Why does people love someone so much, what is it that makes love special so much so that you are ready to face every odds. I mean the class difference b/w the rich Ayesha and poor Mulla Muhammad was more than enough but did that stop them. No.
Alhamdulillah it's one of the most beautiful story that i have come across recently. A must read for those who are looking for the same answer.
But that begs the question as to what's the criteria again in the eyes of Allah that some people were given happy endings in this world and some are just meant to tend to their broken heart. Even if their love was more stronger than the love of Ayesha & Molla Muhammad.
I wonder!

Ep-69 Part 2 : #LoveStoryMaqam of Bibi Rabia Balkhi and Bektash, my favourite Love story.
I think this is it. I think this is the place that holds the answer to the question that I am looking for. The most important #LoveStoryMaqam that i could ever cover I think.
For centuries people have done miracles by just loving someone. How is it possible that someone can attain sainthood just by loving a slave of your brother. This story, I think holds the truth.
Why is it that only through love you can attain such blessing, the truth, that even at the time of your death you are thinking nothing but the person that holds your heart.
The most beautiful force of nature ever created by Allah is undoubtely Love. And if you truly Love someone overlooking their faults, thier shortcomings, their behaviours towards you and so on.
If you truly are given this beautiful gift of truly loving someone above all that which is physical as well as worldly, which unfortunately is the way the world works now, If you are truly given that 'heart of gold' by Allah, then truly i think you can reach to the divine truth in this life itself.
This is what I derive from the story of Rabia balkhi. What a remarkable women and what an extraordinary beautiful story.
Resting place of Rabia Balkhi where she was confined to in her last stage of her life by her cruel and jealous brother.
