The purported tomb of Jesus in Srinagar
Yuz Asaf (or Yus Asaph, or Shahzada Nabi Hazrat Yura Asaf) is believed, to be the name adopted by Jesus after he survived the crucifixion and subsequently migrated to Kashmir.
History
Yuz Asaf was revered as a prophet (by Ahmadi Muslims) and a holy man (by Hindus and Buddhists).
The tomb of Yuz Asaf is Roza Bal shrine, located in the Khanyar district of Srinagar, Kashmir. This is claimed to be the tomb of a man who was both a prince and a prophet and is claimed to date to about AD 100. Until the arrival of Islam in Kashmir, the tomb was maintained by Buddhists and Hindus who claim descent from Yuz Asaf.
Similar beliefs about Yus Asaf
Similar beliefs are held about Yuz Asaf by a wide variety of people and groups. Other local beliefs about Yuz Asaf include that he married a woman called Marjam (that is, Mary) who bore him a number of children. It is also claimed that Jesus’ mother, Mary, is buried nearby in the town Murree in Pakistan, where her burial place is called Mai Mari da Ashtan. Yuz Asaf teachings are often compared with those of Jesus in form and sentiment and influenced later Buddhism. These beliefs about Yuz Asaf have also been adopted by people in the New Age movement. Other writers, such as Gene Matlock and Suzanne Olsson have also sought to demonstrate links between Buddhism and Judaism and claim that the Jews originated in India and that Jesus visited India several times during his life. Olsson’s research indicates that Yuz Asaf also means “son of Joseph”, and that “Iosaphat” is also a translation of “Buddha”. She has also pointed out that Yusufzai is the name of a tribe in Afghanistan who still maintain ancient Israelite customs. To them the word means ‘child or children of Joseph.’
Supporters of some of these theories also claim that a 17th century text, Tarikh-i-Kashmir by Khwaja Hassan Malik records an inscription which reported that Yuz Asaf entered Kashmir in 78. However, this inscription is now illegible or lost, while critics note that the text is not available for general study. An old Hindu text, the Bhavishya Mahapuroma, records Jesus as having lived in Kashmir years after his crucifixion occurred. Another inscription is said to have existed at the Temple of Solomon (in Srinagar) which is claimed to have been carved by Jesus and St. Thomas when they allegedly visited and repaired the Temple. The court of King Gondopharnes in nearby Taxila also record the visit of Thomas to the area circa 52-54 AD. The pillars were removed in recent times when Hindus converted the Temple of Solomon to a Shiva Temple, renaming it Shankacharaya. However, the ancient carvings could lend some validity to the claims for Yuz Asaf being here.
The Tomb
The tomb itself consists of a low rectangular building on a raised platform, surrounded by railings at the front. It has three arches at the front, where entry can be had, and four arches at the side. Inside is a rock carving showing feet bearing crucifixion wounds, which, it is argued, are in a position identical with the unusual crucifixion wounds on the Shroud of Turin.
The tomb had previously been maintained by local descendents of Yuz Asaf. It is currently maintained by a Board of Directors consisting of Sunni Muslims. Sahibzada Basharat Saleem, a former caretaker (now deceased), claimed to hold genealogical tables that link him as a direct descendant of Yuz Asaf or of Jesus. In recent times another man was buried beside Yuz Asaf, who is revered by some local Muslims as a Sufi saint, although others point to historical data that he was only the shrine’s long-serving caretaker.

Its all crap , Jesus had nothin to do with Kashmir and travellin extensively. People who believe in this theory have lost it all and are not considered authentic and therefore are nowhere. Qadiani’s (Should not call them Ahmadis) have this distinct and stupid nature of creating prophets of thgier own at any place they feel. I want to let them know that its religion that they are trying to play with, we ( Muslims and Christians) will knock their stupid punk asses down, if they keep on shittin in their pants like that , Stupid homos.

Just finished reading a book called THE ROZABAL LINE, written by Ashwin Sanghi. In this fictional account, the author suggests that Jesus may have survived the crucifixion, traveled to Kashmir and may lie buried in the Rozabal shrine in Srinagar. More importantly, his lineage could still be living in Kashmir.

Ignor the polytheist Catholic Vatican (and polytheist Protestant Chruch of England) lies and seek the truth!
Jesus survived the israelite establishment’s attempt on his life thanks to GOD. The israelites were thus punished by GOD by never having another prophet sent to mankind using their lineage…
He and his most loyal deciple (and wife) Mary returned to the land of his childhood [where he had learned most of what he had tried to teach those ignorant polytheists]. There he lived to over 100 years old and sired many children, and when he finally really did die it was NOT in disgrace but rather as a revered prophet in heaven on earth (Kashmir)!
Although he was maimed by the attempt on his life and could not walk nor write and had to live with a collapsed lung on his right side (better than on the left side where the heart is subject to a dibilitating enlargement…), he continued his job as GOD’s prophet and taught his buddahist influenced messages.
Jesus was the last prophet of the israelites. Later in time came Muhammad (Peace and Blessings Be Upon Him) who was the last prophet from the lineage of Abraham (as Ishmealites) – and so far, the last prophet GOD has sent to help mankind.
GOD help us all….

I read the book Jesus in Kashmir The Lost Tomb by Suzanne Olsson. I found the evidence she gathered, such as the Rod of Jesse, the Rishi Nama, the footprints carved in stone, the sword in thee stone, and more to be very compelling evidence that this really was the tomb of Jesus. Sadly, all the real evidence has been removed. That is why it is so hard to get to the truth.
