Ma sha Allah, Stay Blessed Everyone.

This is the shrine of a companion of Qalandar Lal Shahbaz, devotees who come to the shrine of Hazrat Qalandar Lal Shahbaz in Sehwan often visit here as well..

It was my 1st time visit to this shrine, which was a good decision n experience. It is the Shrine of Bodla Bahar ( originally "Sikander") A disciple of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar who used to sweep the floor with his beard singing ‘Mera Lal Ayega.years before actually Shahbaz Lal Qalandar arrived. He was a faithful partisan and devotee of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar. His mausoleum is in Sehwan Sharif, Sindh, Pakistan. According to legends/ some sources, Bodla Bahar was already resident of Sehwan Sharif before coming of Qalandar Lal Shahbaz. Later, he turned to the circle of affectionate believers of the saint. He was the most reliable and trustworthy servant of Qalandar. Several myths have been related to Bodla Bahar concerning Qalandar Shahbaz. It is believed that Bodla Bahar was killed, and his flesh was sold in market by butcher Annud. When Qalandar knew he called Bodla three times. After calling, the pieces of flesh of Bodla came to Qalandar and he was restored into life by Qalandar. I had an amazing experience of visiting shrine of Bodla Bahar where I saw the devotees of Bodla Faqeer took great care of visitors. There are many devotees wearing red scarfs and dresses. ladies and children were also there, main street clean n decorated with natural flowers n roses. It was a mystical moment. there is also a Masjid nearby where one can offer prayers. there are also some other graves of pious people where people would also pay their visits.

It has flourished with time. The place is purely dedicated to Shia muslims only. But again, the same point hinders that is of Qalandars mazar. That’s the ritual of asking for money.

Different stories about this trees that this tree belong to Saint Bodlo Bahar. If you want to complete your any wish came here knot a cloth when wish come true cloth open automatic.

The mausoleum of Shah Mardan Sikandar known as Bodla Bahar Sain is simple. But pilgrims find spiritual peace there.

Shah e Mardan Sikandar Bodlo Bahar - is a fabulous soul celebration space to whirl & experience a rare kind of mystical behavior.

The Shrine of Saint Bodlo Bahar was one of the most serene and peaceful places I've visited. The walk down to the shrine was spiritual and it felt like it had a casing, a pull towards it. There was a fascinating manatti tree outside the actual shrine bit within the premises. The strips of manatti cloth tied to it were by people from all walks of religion. That held me in awe and respect.

Ashiq e qalandar, Sakhi Bodla bahar sikandar. Spiritual and historical place. Dhamal Nobat and gharyal sound always there. Langar of Bodla bahar Sarkar is famous all over the Pakistan. Place is crowded all the time with devotees. Two time main drums of Nobat are daily beaten, one at early morning before fajar and the 2nd time in the evening. It's too good to see such places all having history,spirit and culture.

The mausoleum of Hazrat Hajna Shah Bodlo Bahar, was one of the favorite disciples of Hazrat Qalander Lal Shahbaz. He reportedly traveled from Uch Sharif and stayed for sometime with Hazrat Qalander Lal Shahbaz at Sehwan Sharif. Hazrat Hanja Shah Bodlo Bahar belongs to the family of Hazrat Imam Moosa Kazim. Complying with the instructions of his mentor, Bodlo Bahar shifted to Ranipur and made it his last abode. The history of the construction of the old red-brick mansoleum (without plaster) of Bodlo Bahar is though not confirmed however, Fida Hussain Pirzada, the Mutawaliof the Dargah claims that his shrine was built by Mian Noor Muhammad Kalhoro, the then ruler of Sindh. The Shrine houses at least sixteen graves including the one of Maha Rani, who was a diehard devotee, (whose after the city of Ranipur is famous). Maha Rani spent her whole life in the service of his Murshid Bodlo Bahar and people say that she traveled all the way from Uch Sharif to Sindh in the company of Murshid. Majority of the followers of this Dargah belongs to Hindu community and the annual Urs of the Dargah is usually celebrated in the spring season. It is said that there are seven persons carrying the title of Bodlo who are buried in the entire Indo Pak or else where in Iran and Iraq. Sikandar Bodlo is buried in Sehwan and yet another Bodlo is buried in Rohri Sharif. [Source: Khairpur Jewel & Crown of Sindh by Momin Bullo]
