The Aasar-i-Shareef Pethmakhama, (Kashmiri:آثارِ شريف پيتہ مَكهَوُم) popularly called Ziyarat Makhama ("Makhama Shrine"), is a Muslim shrine located in Pethmakhama,[1][2][3] Magam, Budgam, Jammu and Kashmir, India. It contains a relic, Moi-e-Muqqadas, which is widely believed to be the hair of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. It is situated at Pethmakhama which is nearest to Magam Town of Budgam District and is considered to be one of the Kashmir's holiest Muslim shrine.[citation needed]
Aasar-i-Shareef is a two-storey building with four minarets and one central dome built on typical Kashmiri style of rooftop woodwork. The building can host approximately 2000 people at a time for prayers. It has a small mosque connected internally with the shrine building. There were 3 major Chinar trees in and around the shrine but one of them was later halved and remains there without branches. The courtyard of the shrine is made of carved stones and a large park area with inbuilt pathways leading to the shrine.[4] Jammu and Kashmir Police guards the shrine with some 4-5 of its personal as security. The Jammu and Kashmir Waqf Board remains the caretaker of the Shrine.[5]
