Last Sunday I was performed The Zuhr Pray at The Sidi Saiyed Masjid & There's atmosphere is pretty Peaceful & There's Tomb of Sidi Saiyed Right Beside in The Masjid. The Sidi Saiyyed Mosque, popularly known as Sidi Saiyyid ni Jali locally, built in 1572-73 AD (Hijri year 980), is one of the most famous mosques of Ahmedabad, a city in the state of Gujarat, India. As attested by the marble tablet fixed on the wall of the mosque, it was built by Sidi Saiyyid in the retinue of Bilal Jhajar Khan, general in the army of the last Sultan Shams-ud-Din Muzaffar Shah III of the Gujarat Sultanate. The mosque was built in the last year of the existence of Gujarat Sultanate. Architecture The mosque is entirely arcuated and is known for its ten intricately carved stone latticework windows (jalis) on the side and rear arches. The rear wall is filled with square stone pierced panels in geometrical designs. The two bays flanking the central aisle have reticulated stone slabs carved in designs of intertwined trees and foliage and a palm motif. This intricately carved lattice stone window is the Sidi Saiyyed Jali, the unofficial symbol of city of Ahmedabad and the inspiration for the design of the logo of the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad.[citation needed] The central window arch of the mosque, where one would expect to see another intricate jali, is instead walled with stone. This is possibly because the mosque was not completed according to plan before the Mughals invaded Gujarat. #sidisaiyyedmosque #mughalhistory #mughalempire #historyofindia #heritageofindia #ahmedabadheritage https://www.instagram.com/p/COXpqtznFUn/?igshid=pgx2vt2vddyk

Built-in the year 1572-73 AD, the Sidi Saiyyed Mosque is a symbol of a time when Gujarat (Indian state) dwelled and prospered under Muslim rule. This Mosque is famed for the intricate latticework. This Indo-Islamic piece of artwork is often referred to as the Sidi Saiyyed Ni Jali. The elaborate carving on the marble displays the mystical tree and its intertwined branches. The construction of the mosque remained incomplete as per the plan due to the Mughal invasion. It is indeed one of the treasures of the city of Ahmedabad and Incredible India.

Goodbye, Ahmedabad. I feel like I hardly knew ye. I mainly saw the inside of my hotel room drapes from my sick bed and the auto parts neighborhood in which I was ensconced. Thanks to @jay_designer_artist for introducing me to the Tree of Life in Sidi Saiyyed’s Mosque. #treeoflife #sidisaiyyedmosque (at Sidi Saiyyed Mosque)
