major
gates
of
the
city
(Ajmeri
Gate,
Turkman
Gate,

the
closure

wall,

face
problems,
so

mercy
on
him,
Hazrat

this
mosque
and

hall-like
rooms
were
built
on
the
right
and
left
of
the
mosque.
In
which
the
accommodation
of
passengers
was
arranged.
In
front
of
the
mosque,
Etimad-ud-Daula

shrine
is
on
the
way
from
the
Red
Fort
in
Agra
to
the
Taj
Mahal)
built
the
Madrasa
Ghaziuddin
Khan,
the
building
of
which
still
exists
today,
but
this
Madrasa
fell
victim
to
the
oppression
of
the
British
and
was
destroyed.
Delhi
College
was
created
by;
In
which
Istaj
Al-Mawluk

(may
God
have
mercy
on
him)
became
the

and

Great
people
like
