**General Hosh Muhammad Sheedi Qambrani** or **Hoshu Sheedi** ([Sindhi](/source/Sindhi_language): هوش محمد شيدي قمبراڻي‎) was an [Askari](/source/Askari) unit, and also supreme commander of [Sindh](/source/Sindh)'s [Talpur](/source/Talpur_Dynasty) army led by Mir Sher Muhammad Khan Talpur.[1] Hoshu Sheedi fought at the [Battle of Hyderabad](/source/Battle_of_Hyderabad) against the [British](/source/British_Empire) forces under Sir [Charles James Napier](/source/Charles_James_Napier), and was killed during battle on 24 March 1843.[2][3] Before his death in the Battle of Hyderabad, he called out the famous slogan:

مرويسون پر سنڌ نه ڏيسون‎

*Marvesoon par [Sindh](/source/Sindh) na desoon*

(We will die but we will not give Sindh)

— Hoshu Sheedi, War Slogan against British

Hosh Muhammad was respected by the [British](/source/British_Empire) commanding officer, [Sir Charles James Napier](/source/Charles_James_Napier), who buried him with full military honours.[4]

## Early life

Hosh Muhammad was born in 1801 to the [Siddi tribe](/source/Siddi) in Hyderabad, Sindh, which was then more or less under the control of the [Durrani Empire](/source/Durrani_Empire). Before joining the army, he worked at the residence of the local [Talpur](/source/Talpur_Dynasty) rulers of [Sindh](/source/Sindh).

## Mausoleum

Grave of Hosh Mohammad Sheedi

The historical mausoleum of Hosho Sheedi Qambrani is in Dubee, a small village approximately 10 kilometers from [Hyderabad](/source/Hyderabad%2C_Sindh). It was built to pay tribute to the war martyrs and was declared a heritage site. The building currently needs maintenance and restoration. It is a historical place of Sindh which is neglected by the government and community.
