About Bodla Bahar
Born 1238.
Bodla Bahar (, ) was a devoted follower of Sufi saint Lal Shahbaz Qalandar. His mausoleum is in Sehwan Sharif, Sindh, Pakistan.
Originally named Bodla Sikandar, Bodla Bahar was a resident of Sehwan Sharif before the arrival of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar. He became one of the saint's most reliable and trustworthy disciples. Numerous legends surround Bodla Bahar and his connection to Lal Shahbaz.
One such tale recounts that Bodla Bahar, asked by the saint to get meat from the market, had neither money nor any other thing of value to offer for meat. Therefore, he instructed the butcher Anud to slaughter his body, sell the pieces in the bazaar, and use the revenue to buy a good lamb for the saint. Upon discovering this, Qalandar called out Bodla's name three times, miraculously causing the pieces of Bodla's flesh to reassemble and bringing him back to life.
