Main Info
The tomb of sister Fateh Khan is situated to the northeast of the mausoleum of Mubarak Khan which is in a ruined condition. An Arabic stone inscription is built into the western wall (inside) of the shrine, which points out that the tomb was assigned to the sister (Hamshirah) of Fateh Khan. The inscription in question bears considerable importance from the historical point of view since it helps us in gleaning a glimpse of the genealogy of Sultan Nizamuddin. An English translation of the same is furnished below:
This (resting place is intended for the aspirer to the mercy of Allah; the arrangement for building) this shrine was made one of Nizamuddin shah; may Allah perpetuate his dominion and sovereignty; in the year eight hundred and ninety-eight 898 A.H. (1492 A.D.).
From the above mural document, it is evident that Fateh Khan succeeded or was nominated by his father Sultan Nizamuddin to the throne of lower Sindh.
