Taj-ul-Masajid is a mosque situated in Bhopal, India. “Taj-ul-Masajid” literally means “Crown Among Mosques”. It has been built during the reign of the Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah Zafa and was finished only in 1985. For the building were chosen the most beautiful historical traditions of mosque building. One of the most unusual elements is the eastern gate decorated with the ancient motifs from circa.
The mosque has a long corridor with wonderful columns. In front of the mosque, you can see a spacious square made by decorative stone, near the entrance, is placed a fountain with a huge pool. For a long time, the Mosque was unfinished because there wasn’t enough money to do it. Even the daughter of Bahadur Shah Zafa wasn’t able to finish the mosque decoration. After a long-lasting break in 1971, the mosque building was close to the finish. This wonderful mosque was built thanks to great efforts of Allama Mohammad Imran Khan Nadwi Azhari and Maulana Sayed Hashmat Ali Sahab of Bhopal.
