Khwaja Malik-Tahir Baba Dargah is situated in the Rauza area of Mau, within the city's historic religious landscape. It is a devotional site associated with Baba Malik Tahir and is locally recognised as a dargah or mazar. A local listing provides an important piece of oral/local-history information: it identifies the graves (maqbara) of Baba Malik Tahir and his younger brother Baba Malik Qasim at the site and connects these figures with the names Qasimpura and Malik Tahir Pura. This is particularly relevant to your heritage documentation because it suggests a relationship between the shrine and the historical naming of surrounding neighbourhoods. This information comes from a visitor contribution rather than an archival historical source, so it should be recorded as local tradition/oral history, not as an independently established historical fact. The shrine continues to function as a place of devotional visitation and remembrance, making it an example of living Islamic/Sufi heritage.
