Perhaps he was one of the companions of [[Mir Syed Ali Hamdani]]. He came here in 1539 A.D. Another tradition is that he came with founder of [[Shiaism]] in [[Kashmir]],
[[Mir Sham ud-Din Iraqi]] in 1500 A.D. He stayed at [[Wahabpora]] for a long period of time. <ref>تاریخ کشمیر از سید ذوالفقار علی مطبوعہ از راہ اسلام آرگنائزیشن</ref>

==Present scenario==
The villagers of the adjacent villages come here every Thursday to offer [[dua]] for the deceased and pray. The shrine of Aga Mir Syed Mohammad Baqir Mosavi is surrounded with cemented wall and the colour of the shrine is dark green. A separate committee was established in 1990 A.D. to look after the whole building. This ''Astan Welfare Committee'' collects all funds of the building and is headed by a president. [[Astan Bandar]] (marsiya khani)<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/wahabpora%23|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20141002040124/https://www.facebook.com/wahabpora%23|url-status=dead|title=Wahabpora Budgam|date=2 October 2014|archivedate=2 October 2014}}</ref> is organised every year in the month of August or September at the shrine.

== Closure of shrine==
Due to lockdown and spread of [[COVID-19 pandemic]] his shrine was completely closed for visitors and pilgrims. [[Astan Bandar]] was also postponed in the previous year. In November 2020, the shrine was reopened for the pilgrims.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/wahabpora%23|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20141002040124/https://www.facebook.com/wahabpora%23|url-status=dead|title=Wahabpora Budgam|date=2 October 2014|archivedate=2 October 2014}}</ref><ref>https://www.fb.com/agakirmani</ref>
