Muhammad Muīz al-Dīn ibn Sām (1149-1206) was a prominent ruler of the Ghaurī dynasty, who defeated Prithvīraj Chauhān near Panipat in 1192, owing to which India became a part of the Muslim Empire. Widespread conspiracy resulted in the assassination of Ghaurī on 15 March, 1206. Seven centuries later, his tomb was built near Jhelum at Kot Dhamyak, Sohawa, Punjab. This article proves through authentic and contemporary sources, that Ghaurī is buried in Afghanistan's city, Ghazna, and not in Kot Dhamyak, Sohawa, Jhelum Disrict.
