The Shrine of Sachal Sarmast is a highly revered Sufi shrine located in Daraza Sharif, a village near Ranipur in the Khairpur district of Sindh, Pakistan

It is dedicated to the 18th-century Sufi mystic and poet Sachal Sarmast, who remains one of the most celebrated Sufi saints of the region

Sachal Sarmast was born in 1739 in Daraza Sharif, a village situated between Gambat and Ranipur.

He belonged to the Farooqi lineage of mystics, also known as the' Darazai Dervishes' belonging to the Darzai Sufi school of thought.

Sachal Sarmast remains one of the most distinguished Sufi poets and saints of Sindh. He composed poetry in multiple languages, including Sindhi, Siraiki, Persian, and Urdu.

The Shrine of Sachal Sarmast is a remarkable example of Islamic Sufi architecture, reflecting both traditional Islamic funerary design and influences from Sikh and Mughal architectural styles.

Constructed by Mir Rustam Khan Talpur, a ruler of the Talpur dynasty, the shrine was later renovated and adorned with intricate Kashi Kari (glazed tilework) by Sakhi Qabool Muhammad II.

 The structure exhibits a unique blend of artistic elements, particularly in its use of vibrant tilework and ornamental detailing.

The shrine follows a square-based architectural plan, forming a cuboid structure with four octagonal minarets, each positioned at a corner of the main cuboid building.

Through its architectural grandeur and continued cultural practices, the Shrine of Sachal Sarmast remains a significant landmark in the spiritual and artistic heritage of Sindh.
