The Hussaini Alam Ashurkhana is a historic Ashurkhana (house of mourning) built during Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah's reign. The relics housed here give the area its name—Hussaini Alam. The Ashurkhana is immortalized in the Tale of the Wild Elephant – when Abdullah Qutb Shah was the crown prince, his elephant turned rogue and eloped into the wild forests with the prince. Worried, the Queen Mother Hayat Baksh Begum prayed to the Imams that if the Prince returns safe and sound, she would offer a langar “gold chain” to the Ashurkhana. When the Prince returned safely to the fort, the Queen Mother kept her promise and offered the Langar to the Ashurkhana. The tradition of the Langar Procession was carried out from the mid-1600s to the early 20th century on the 5th day of Muharram every year. The Ashurkhana building is a unique architectural marvel constructed with lime mortar plastered over stone masonry. The roof, a testament to the ingenuity of its builders, is crafted using the jack arch technique. At the heart of the courtyard, an ablution tank with a fountain adds to the grandeur of the structure. Its importance can be noted because the entire locality is named after the Aashurkhana and the relics housed within it.
