Shirazli village was a village inhabited by Azerbaijanis. In 1987, 2000 Azerbai­janis lived in the village. The famous place of Vedibasar mahal, Aghbal agha (Iqbal Mir-yagub oghlu) hearth, was located in the village of Shirazli. Seyyed Aghbal Agha was famous and respected in the village as a simple and kind man. In 1988, 80-year-old Seyid Aghbal was hit in the chest with a heavy piece of stone during the Armenian attack on the village and died. He was buried in Shid­ley Cemetery. Not only Muslims, but al­so Armenians from different regions and villages came to visit this hearth, which was famous in the mahal. At that time, when people were saddened by the earth and the sky, they aspired to the places of faith, they found the last sign of hope there, they relied on a ray of hope and turned to mosques, pyres, shrines, and shrines. One of such places of faith was the Seyid Aghbal sacred place, which has great respect among the people.
