Bibi Pak Daman
Bibi Pak Daman is a mausoleum in Lahore, Pakistan. Legend has it that it holds the graves of five ladies from the prophet Muhammad's household (Ahlulbayt). One, Rukia, is claimed to be the daughter of Ali ibn Abi Talib (prophet's cousin and son-in-law) and wife of Muslim-ibn-Aqeel (emissary of Husayn to Kufa); others are said to be Ibn-Aqeel's sister and daughters. It is said that these ladies came here after the event of Karbala on the 10th day of the month of Muharram in 61 AH (October 10, AD 680). Some scholars consider Rukia to have been the daughter of Syed Ahmed Tokhta (12th century).
