[2] It is the site of the shrine of Hazrat Khawaja Muhammad Zaman called hazrat sultan owliya, one of the most revered religious figures in Sindh. [5] The shrine, among the oldest in Sindh, was closed for 37 years due to a custodianship dispute before being reopened in January 2020. [5] This hindered renovation and maintenance of the shrine, which it especially needed after suffering substantial damage during the 2011 Sindh floods. [5] A 2015 attempt by the Auqaf department had been cancelled after tension escalated between the two rival groups, leading to one person being shot and killed. [5] The successful 2020 reopening of the shrine took place without incident, with law enforcement officers on standby, and Auqaf Secretary Munawwar Mahesar unlocked the shrine's main entrance. [5] The shrine is open to women in the mornings and to men in the evenings. [5]
