The mausoleum of Shah Gohar Pir stands as one of Lahore's oldest shrines, holding a rich historical significance. Shah Gohar Pir, born on Friday, the 11th of Rabi 'al-Thani in the year 729 AH (February 19, 1329), hails from Uch Sharif, and his lineage is linked to the esteemed Sadat of Uch Sharif. His father, Hassan Kabir-ud-Din, was a prominent religious scholar and Pir Tariqat.
Under the guidance of his father, Shah Gohar Pir acquired profound religious knowledge. He then pledged his allegiance to his revered father and set forth on a dedicated path. Bestowed with Khalifat, he was entrusted with the responsibility of spreading the message of Islam among non-Muslims. Thus, he embarked on a journey to Jammu and Kashmir, where he diligently preached Islam. After dedicating considerable time to this noble endeavor, he eventually returned to Lahore.
During his time in Lahore, Shah Gohar Pir resided in
the area of Mahmood Booti, away from the bustling population. It was here that
he peacefully passed away on the 21st of Ramzan in the year 825 AH, leaving
behind a legacy of faith and devotion. The mausoleum that honors his memory
serves as a testament to his enduring spiritual influence.
