# THREE of FOUR – Major Curators of the Holy Belongings
In the very early period of Islam; the belongings of the Holy Prophet s.a.w. remained in the private custody of individual collectors; Until the Caliphate in Turkey vested to organize them.
Umwi, Abbasid and Fatimid Caliphates also played their important role in preservation of the Holy Belongings of the Holy Prophet s.a.w.
Besides it, the Tughlaq Dynasty in India also patronized various collections; which eventually were over the years, gathered by the Mughal Royalty.
By the time when Anarchy ruled over the Mughal- India; and a separate Sikh Empire was established in Punjab (today’s Indian and Pakistani Punjabs, Parts of Khaiber P.K. Provice and Kashmir) and Muslims of the area regained some prosperity; they aptly PURCHASED the belongings from the Mughal Princes and housed them (mostly) in Lahore.
The Single Largest Collection after The Topkapı Palace Museum was built in Lahore by two famous brothers under the state auspices of Maharaja Ranjit Singh:-
Faqir Syed Aziz uDin (Prime Minister of Sikh Empire)
Faqir Syed Noor uDin (Finance Minister and Custodian of the Sikh Empire)
The collections were housed in an especially Purpose-Built Pavilion of Hawaili Faqir Khana, Lahore.
Many of those were (in later days) sanctioned for Public Display at Badshahi Masjid (Royal Mosque) Lahore.
# FOUR of FOUR – Preservation of Belongings brings HISTORY to LIFE
Besides the foremost aspect of BLESSINGS, the belongings also serve to DISPLAY various social and historical attributes; for EXAMPLE:-
A student of Archeology can understand the Material Constitution, Style, Necessities of Age, Use of Geometry by visiting a Royal Fort; and similarly, a student of sociology can derive better comprehension of Living Styles and Family Ways by visiting the Royal Household Pavilion at a Mughal Fort.
Also, an Engineer can correctly understand the Use of Gravitational Force by looking into the Fountains at the Royal Fort and Shalamar Gardens in Lahore.
Similarly, the Holy Belongings of the Holy Prophet s.a.w. have Tremendous Value for the generations to UNDERSTAND, countless questions such as below:-
- Was the Holy Prophet s.a.w. a WELL DRESSED personage.
- What was the STYLE, MATERIAL and COLOUR of His attire.

- What kind of Writing Materials were then, used.
- What was His style of TABLIGH.
- How did He addressed the Super Political & Military Powers of that time.
