About this listen

Welcome to the Museum of Kashmir podcast with Muhammad Faysal

We start our new podcast series, 'Sultanat' which does a deep dive into the medieval era of Kashmir. In our premiere episode, we explore the reign of the illustrious King Zain ul Abidin from the 15th century.

We are joined by Sameer Hamdani, a distinguished Kashmiri historian and Design Director at INTACH J&K. His expertise lies in Islamic religious architecture in South Asia. He has authored the insightful books “The Syncretic Traditions of Islamic Religious Architecture of Kashmir (Early 14th ‐ 18th Century)” and “Shi’ism in Kashmir: A History of Sunni‐Shia Rivalry and Reconciliation,” where he explores the rich tapestry of Kashmir’s Shia population and their historical narratives.

Shakir Mir is a seasoned journalist hailing from Srinagar, with a keen focus on politics, conflict, and history. His work has been featured in various Indian and international publications, providing critical insights into the socio-political dynamics of the region.
