Kunwarpur Karbala and Its Unique Distinction
















Dr.Mazhar Naqvi
Karbala Kunwarpur  has the unique distinction of having maximum numbers of shrines dedicated to martyrs of Karbala under one roof. Kunwarpur Karbala has fallen prey to vagary of the weather and turned into an earthen mound. One  Nusrat Hussain Sahib under a divine command   happened to settle at Kunwarpur with his wife in 2007.He began digging the mound and Karbala resurfaced .Nusrat Sahib claims that Karbala was built under the orders of  King of Samthar State. The ruler was directed to erect a Karbala after he was blessed with a son due to prayers of Mir Kalbe Ali Shah who was known for his miraculous powers and had been residing at Kunwarpur in 19th century. The original Karbala had shrines of Bibi Fatima,Hazrat Imam Hasan,Imam Husain, Hazrat Ali Akbar, Hazrat Abbas, Hazrat Ali Asghar, Habeeb Ibne Mazahir,Hazrat Qasim,Bibi Zainab, Bibi Umme Kulsum, Hazrat Muslim,His two son, namely Muhammad and Ibrahim.

Located at Kunwarpur on Fatehpur-Bindki road about 60 kms from Kanpur city,Karbala is being re-erected by a lawyer Jafri Sahib and is nearing comp0-letionm.He claims that shrines dedicated to  Prophet Hazrat Muhammad,his Wife Hazrat Khadija and Hazrat Ali were also under one roof when the Karbala was built around 1850 AD . He told the blogger that he will also add the shrines of the three holy personalities after completion of the dome.The blogger is posting images of the shrines under one roof at Kunwarpur Karbala for the perusal of the viewers.For more details of Karbala ,plz read the article under the title “Kunwarpur Karbala and Its Miraculous Discovery” on Muharram Mirror.
