Go there and contact
Built in the th century, this shrine with the dazzling decoration is in the green marble of Lashkar Gah; mosaics cover the entire surface of the large arches. In 1974, he had a door in lapis and silver. It is one of the most sacred places of prayer in Afghanistan. The mantle of the Prophet was offered to Ahmad Shah Durrani by the Emir of Bukhara in 1768 to endorse a treaty relating to northern territories. The coat has almost never been exposed, except on large occasions. The last was in 1996, when Mullah Omar wanted to legitimize his new status as leader… It was proclaimed by the Taliban «Commander of the believers».
