Koh-e-Murad (Balochi and Urdu: كوه مراد) is a shrine located near the town of Turbat in the Baluchistan province of Pakistan. It is the most sacred site for Zikris community.[1] Zikris believe that their Mahdi spent the last years of his life at this site praying and preaching his faith.[2][3]

The term Koh-e-Murad means mountain of desire. Zikris make a yearly pilgrimage to shrine on the 27th of Ramadan. They gather and recite prayers like Zikr-e-Elahi, Chogaan and Sepath.[3] About 20,000 pilgrims visit the shrine annually.[4]
