Located 25 km southeast of Tando Aallahyar town is the shrine complex of Abdul Hameed Buchari. According to Mir Ali Sher Qani, the author of Tufhat-ul-Kiram, Abdul Hameed was an eminent sufi of the Samavati pargana in Sindh. He belonged to the Qadiri silsila of Sufism. He was born in Buchar village, and hence was called Buchrai. Today his shrine is located in Makan Sharif, the village which is known for the Buchrai Pirs of the Tando Allahyar district. He lived in the eighteenth century during the Kalhora period (1700-1783). It is believed that he died in the last years of Mian Noor Muhammad's (1719-1753) reign in Sindh.
