Escaping the clutches of Robben Island, Sheikh Noorul Mubeen found refuge in the serene embrace of Oudekraal. His kramat, a testament to his unwavering faith, rests here at Kramat Sheikh Noorul Mubeen. Sheikh Noorul Mubeen arrived at the Cape in 1716. The Dutch East India Company banished him here. He was imprisoned on Robben Island. But his spirit yearned for freedom. Legends whisper of his miraculous escape. Some say he traversed the ocean, his feet barely skimming the waves. Others believe compassionate fishermen guided him to the mainland. He sought solace in this secluded mountainside, a place now known as Kramat Sheikh Noorul Mubeen. From this vantage point, he could survey the land, his gaze sweeping across the majestic Twelve Apostles and the iconic Lion’s Head. Under the cloak of night, Sheikh Noorul Mubeen shared the teachings of Islam with local slaves. He became a beacon of hope, his words a solace in their struggle. Kramat Sheikh Noorul Mubeen stands as a tribute to his resilience. It commemorates a spiritual leader who, even in exile, nurtured the flame of faith. His legacy endures, inspiring generations to embrace the beauty of Islam.
