The Baba Lasoori Shah (Urdu سائیں محمد بخش المعروف باب لسوڑی شاہ ) (also known as Sain Muhammad Bakhsh) shrine is a landmark located in Faisalabad, Jhang Bazaar main city area Pakistan. It is named after Baba Lasoori Shah, who used to live under a shade of a Cordia myxa tree called lasoori. He was given the tree's name due to the symbol of the tree and his silence. After his death in 1932, the shrine became the center of religious and cultural activities. On the annual, three-day Urs celebration in March, the shrine received large numbers of visitors. On the first day, the shrine is given a ritual bath in the presence of the district administration, local politicians and the business community. The devotees bring the most beautiful chadars—embroidered shawls—and cover the shrine with them
