"Women beg outside the mosque that houses the cloak of Mohammed, which is one of Islam's most treasured symbols rests in this mosque. The cloak is cared for by Mullah Masood Akhundzada. His family has held the responsibility of protecting the cloak in its shrine ever since Afghanistan's founder, Ahmed Shah Durrani, brought the garment from Central Asia in 1768. Taliban founder Mullah Omar used the cloak to rally Taliban fighters in the 1990's." - Louie Palu
