The Amburiq Masjid (Urdu: مسجد امبوڑک شگر) is a mosque located in Shigar, in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan.[1] It is one of the oldest mosques in Baltistan. The mosque was built by Sayed Ali Hamdani[2] and is among the famous landmarks in Baltistan.[3][4]

History

According to local traditions, Sayed Ali Hamadani visited Shigar to proselytize the faith and established the Amburiq mosque, becoming the first mosque in the Shigar Valley.[5]

Mosque Museum

Main entrance of the mosque

A small museum has been established inside the mosque, which has been helping to create awareness of the historical significance of the site, and to instill a conservational approach among the local community towards socially significant structures.[2]

Renovation and support

Restoration was completed in 1998–2000. The cost of the mosque renovation was provided by Norwegian Embassy Islamabad, and the local community where the AKCSP provided technical assistance and supervised the project.[2]

Awards of Merit

  • In 2005, UNESCO awarded Asia-Pacific Heritage Awards to the mosque.[2]
