===Repair and Expansion===
During the Qajar period, the Mother of Aqa Khan Mahallati financed the repair of al-Hurr's tomb and built a castle-like courtyard around it so that visitors can seek refuge in it against bandits. In [[1325]]/1907-8, Husayn Khan Shuja' al-Saltana repaired the tomb of al-Hurr, and in [[1330]]/1912, Sayyid 'Abd al-Husayn Kiliddar, repaired the balcony of the building.

Today, this shrine is located several kilometers far from Imam al-Husayn's Holy Shrine to the west, with a dome upon it; however, there are doubts regarding the authenticity of this place. Some believe al-Hurr had been buried alongside other martyrs, near the holy tomb of Imam al-Husayn (a), but Sayyid Muhsin al-Amin believes the reputation and public respect for this shrine are not baseless.
