Aga Syed Mohammad Baqir Kirmani (Urduآغا سید محمد باقر کرمانی) was a religious cleric who came from Kirman, Iran in Kashmir to spread the message of Islam. Perhaps he was one of the companions of Mir Syed Ali Hamdani. He came here in 1374 A.D. Another tradition is that he came with founder of Shiaism in Kashmir Mir Sham ud-Din Iraqi in 1500 A.D. to Kashmir. He stayed at Wahabpora for a long period of time. He died here and was buried at Wahabpora.[1] He was a great jurist, teacher and preacher. He was well experienced in art and handicraft.[1] The villagers of the adjacent villages come here every Thursday here to offer Fatiha and dua.[2] The shrine of Aga Syed Mohammad Baqir Kirmani is surrounded with cemented wall and the colour of the shrine is dark green. A separate committee was established to look after the whole building. This Astan Committee collects all funds of the building. Famous marsiya khani Astan Bandar[3] is organised every year in the month of August or September at the shrine.[4]
