Shuhada Saleheen, or the 'Pious Martyrs', is a large cemetery that lies in a fold of the hills to the south east of the citadel of Bala Hissar in Kabul. The proliferation of argharwan (Judas) trees on the slopes above the cemetery serves as a reminder how the hills in and around the city must have been before they were built on. To the north of Shuhada Saleheen lies the wetland of Qul-e Hashmat Khan, which Babur mentions as a favourite duck-shoot in his memoirs and which forms an important part of the ecosystem of this part of Kabul - see https://www.afghanistan-analysts.org/kabul-duck-alert-afghan-capital-still-important-stopover-for-migrating-waterbirds/ . The recently-excavated Buddhist monastery complex of Tapa Narenj indicates that the area has been a site of significance from at least the 4th century AD. Graves from the Islamic era in the cemetery date back to the Timurid period and perhaps the most well-known to Kabulis is Ziarat-e Hazrat Tamim wa Jabr-e Ansar, a mausoleum erected in around 1822. Afghan historians suggest that Jabr was probably the son of the poet and mystic Khwaja Abdullah Ansari, while Hazrat Tamim was a companion of the Prophet, said to have been killed in Kabul in around 664 AD, during one of the first campaigns of the Muslim armies against Kabul. A less well-known mausoleum in the cemetery is that of Alim Khan, the last Amir of Bukhara (see gallery for Baghe Padshah Bukhara), who died in exile in Kabul
