Jamrros Graveyard, Khairpur


The ancient graveyard of Jamrro clan in Deh Jamrro, near Gambat on main Agrra road houses shrines of three prominent pirs: Pir Ari Bihan, Pir Panir and Pir Musafir, which are situated in a cxlose proximity. The tomb of Ari Bihan comes first in the line and it houses as many as four graves of unknown members of his association. This is a newly contructed shrine. The authenticated history of the saint is unknown. However, Ibraheem Jamrro, the Mujawer of the graveyard claims that Pir Ari Bihan was the disciple of Pir Panir, who is also buried in a tomb closely situated with the tomb of his disciple. The history and profile of Pir Panir is neither confirmed nor any wriyyen word about this saintly figure is available, however , the local population got freedom and associated many anecdotes with this Pir. The prominent among all those is that Pir Panir was a humble milk supplier of Ghous Pak of Multan. At one stage due to inclement weather he failed to transport milk to Multan to Gambat so he opted to send all the milking animals to Multan in the service of his mentor. And that is how he attained the status of a devoted disciple.

The tomb of Pir Panir Shah houses four unknown graves and no concrete information is hitherto available.

Again at a brief distance lies the shrine of Pir Musafir, which is again a newly constructed monument. Like other shrines, no concrete information regarding this saint is also hitherto available.

There is an old well in the vicinity of the graveyard whose water is used by the pilgrims suffereing from skin ailments. At a very close distance lies the shrine of Pir Shahmir Lakyari which is also surrounded by a thick forest and a vast graveyard. Again this graveyard has also an old well whose water is used by the ailing pilgrims.
