Abul Fazl Shrine, Religious shrine in Murad Khane, Kabul, Afghanistan.

The Abul Fazl Shrine features a tall blue minaret that rises above the surrounding buildings of Murad Khane district in Kabul.

The shrine honors Abbas Abul Fazl, grandson of Prophet Muhammad and son of Caliph Ali, commemorating the events of Karbala in 680 CE.

During Ashura, the shrine becomes a central gathering point for Shia Muslims who participate in prayers, fasting, and traditional processions.

The shrine maintains regular opening hours for visitors, with separate prayer areas for men and women, and features a nearby bazaar for basic necessities.

The shrine survived a significant blast in February 2023 without casualties, demonstrating the structural resilience of this religious landmark.
