KASOTI: touchstone: piece of stone on which gold is rubbed to test its purity

A Relation between Panipat's ancient & exclusive KASOTI-PILLARS and KAIRANA

By:- Saad Akhtar Siddiqui Kairanvi --email: saadakhtarsiddiqui@yahoo.co.in

This true and interesting story belong with the era of King Jahangir :- Mr. Muqarrab Khan Kairanvi was an honorable minister at the Darbar of King Jahangir. He was very honest, wise and clever man also. One upon a time a ship that was full of many type of gems and other costly & exclusive stones and these well-known Kasotti-Pillars also was on that ship. But unfortunationally that ship was damage in an accident and set down in the sea. When Nawab Muqarrab Khan was the governor of Gujarat state and ship was set down in the sea near Surat seaport it is in Gujarat state. So to find out those all things was the responsibility of Nawab Sb. But at that time there was no such type of equipments who help to find out the damaged ship. But when Nawab sb came to know about it then he tried to get back this treasure and done it. But how he did his work and how he find out all things from the sea it is a mystery till now. When he find out all these things then the King become so happy, and gave all things to Nawab sb as a reward. Nawab sb also was very happy to get all things with him. But now question is this that- "How these Kasoti-Pillars came to Panipat?" Well I tell you about it that- about this great story it is described in many history books that are about Kairana is - when King give these pillars and all thing to Nawab sb till then he was unknown about it that what are the special features and hidden qualities in it. So when he came to know about its quality then he send an order to Nawab Sb to Kairana to bring these pillars back to King. But before one day any well-wisher of Nawab sb acknowledged to him about this order "FARMAAN " of king. Nawab sb had a great knowledge about gems and stones and also loved them very much. So he thought an idea to keep these pillars near him. He put out the pillars from his mahal at Kairana, and send them to Panipat to set at Mazaar-Shareef of Hazrat Boo Ali Shah Qalander Panipati. When he got the order of king, than he reply that I settled those pillars at the Mazaar-Shareef of Hazrat Boo Ali Shah Qalander Panipati at Panipat. But if you permitted me than I will put out those pillars from there and bring for you. But how was king can order about putout the pillars from there? So those pillars rest in Panipat and till now they are in a good condition due to well maintenance by managing committee of Mazaar-Shareef of Hazrat Boo Ali Shah Qalander Panipati. From where in Kairana these pillars bring to Panipat there Nawab sb set other same type of stone pillars at his mahal at the bank of Nawab Talab. But those pillars, which set in Kairana besides Kasotti-Pillars, are in very bad condition due to no maintenance and no heed given by A.S.I. and our Kairana politicians. When Nawab sb died than his son Hakeem Rizqullah Khan Kairanvi bring his father dead body at Panipat to funeral there. Son of Nawab sb also had a great knowledge about gems and exclusive stones. So he used a stone to made his father's grave named "Zehar-Mohra" , and he sets many other type of quality stones at the out-side walls of Mazaar of Nawab Sb. If you can go Panipat ever than you can see these all things live, among these stones there was a stone that predict about weather change. But now in this era most of us unknown about this great knowledge, and due to lack of knowledge we think as these all gems and stones just like a simpler stone nothing else. The real name of Nawab Muqarrab Khan was "Sheikh Hasan" but king Jahangir give him an honor as Muqarrab means "Very Near".For further details about Kairana and its relevant features please visit our website www.urdustan.net/kairana which is made by Mr. Umar Kairanvi and day by day it progress with our all Kairanians efforts. I pray to God that almighty gives us a power to do something different for our Kairana.Because "Yeh Hum Per Qarz Hai Kairana Ka Jo Hume Chukana Hoga."
