The burial of Naqib Tus Olad Bani Israel is described in Mouza Tanda adjacent to Mouza Botha in Gujarat District. In Mouza Najan, adjacent to Mouza Manawara, [2] the descendants of Fainosh, Hazrat Yusuf (as) are at ease. While in Chamba, the tomb of Filasus is said to be one of the descendants of Sida Dawood (as). Apart from these, there is a burial of Harshiya in the descendants of Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) at Mouza Datala.

In the southern town of Kanja, 5 miles from the city of Gujarat, the ancient Sahib Diwan and Masnavi Nerang Ishq Sufi poet Hazrat Ghanimat Kanjahi are laid to rest. His fame came at a time when the means of communication were unmatched in today's advanced age. Outside the country, the state of Iran was also booming. He attributes his precious Masnavi to the King of Persia as follows;

Critical thoughts in the name of witness
Disturbed for the sake of dear

At a time when the sources of self-knowledge, poverty and cognition and spirituality were all around the various centers of thought for the reformation of misguided humanity and there were various heads of various spiritual states of the country. Hazrat Syed Kabiruddin Shahdula Daryai Rah was quenching the thirst for knowledge of truth with his bounty and blessings. Were that;

If the name is accepted, then make it a cause of grace
Build bridges, make tea, build mosques and ponds

From her presence in the world at the shrine of Hazrat Shah Dola Darya Rah to the veil, she continued to provide shelter and solace to the people of Allah.

Even today it is the reference creation and it can be said without fear that it is the only place in the world. Where the offering of a living human being is considered and the living souls are left as offerings in the shrine of the owner of the shrine. Therefore, this small-minded, insane creature, still known as "Shahdula's rat", confirms the greatness of Hazrat Shahdola Daryai.

Other Elders [4] Hazrat Shah Jahangir arrived at Mouza Ghazi Khokhar in the Mughal Empire of Gujarat District in the year 1669. He devoted himself to the reformation of the people in the surrounding area and to the propagation of Islam. At his shrine, which is one mile away from the city in the aforesaid northeast of the city, a festival is held every year on the first Thursday of the month of Asar. In which visitors from far and wide participate. Outside the shrine's perimeter are the graves of those killed in the battle of Gujarat in 1849.

He was a godly man, a worshiper of the night, alive and well-mannered. Among their followers, the monasteries and the poor do not have a married life. They do not sleep on the bed nor do they allow any woman to sleep in the vicinity of the shrine. Urs is held at his shrine every year on 9th Muharram.

There is a mausoleum of Sheikh Burhan Rah Sahib, a God-fearing elder in Mouza Lakhnawal of Huza district. This self-aware man was Faqir Manish Sufi. On his right hand, Mirza Veer Jutt Musharraf, the heir of the people of Mouza, became peaceable and thus, through his efforts, the nation of Mouza became Muslim. Their wedding takes place twice a year on the first day of the Islamic month of Shawwal and then on the tenth day of Dhu al-Hijjah.

In another Mouza Mewal, a philanthropic elder, Jati Shah Rehman Rah, was residing about three hundred years ago today. Mouza Shah Rehman migrated from Gujranwala district to Gujrat district. His disciple Syed Tawakal Shah permanently stood on the seat of his Pir and Murshid and lit a fire in his house as a symbolic presence of his Pir. He used to celebrate the Urs of his Murshid every twelve years and at the time of establishment of Urs it was made known that this Dhoni was taken out after being buried for twelve years. This wedding takes place in the month of Muharram.
