About

Qutub Minar has given a new lease of life, beautifully lit up and piercing the darkness of the night sky like a blazing beam of light. It is a visual to behold more beautiful than Eiffel Tower in Paris. The heritage walk will take you inside the Qutub Complex and tell you stories of the art, architecture and history of the Qutub Minar and the other monuments in the complex.

The Qutub Minar, also spelled Qutub Minar and Qutab Minar, is a minaret and “victory tower” that forms part of the Qutub complex, which lies at the site of Delhi’s oldest fortified city, Lal Kot, founded by the Tomar Rajputs. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Mehrauli area of South Delhi, India. It is one of the most visited tourist spots in the city, mostly built between 1199 and 1220.

The Qutub Minar can be compared to the 62-metre all-brick Minaret of Jam in Afghanistan, which was constructed a decade or so before the probable start of the Delhi tower. The surfaces of both are elaborately decorated with inscriptions and geometric patterns. The Qutub Minar has a shaft that is fluted with “superb stalactite bracketing under the balconies” at the top of each stage. In general, minarets were slow to be used in India and are often detached from the main mosque where they exist.

A Synthesis of South Asian and Islamic Architecture

This victory tower is a symbol of the synthesis of traditional Islamic architecture and Southwestern Asian design. Elizabeth Lambourn’s Islam Beyond Empires: Mosques and Islamic Landscapes in India and the Indian Ocean studies the introduction of Islam in South Asia and how the region influenced the Islamic religious architecture. These newly arrived Muslims from the Islamic West escaped the Mongol Empire and emigrated to India, where they constructed religious centers.

The Qutub Minar serves as a central marker to these new Muslim communities as well as being a reminder of Islam’s presence in the area. The architecture of the minaret varies greatly from that of the typical style and design of the mosques constructed in the Middle East. Local architecture such as the Indic temples heavily influence the style of these structures. This affected the different materials, techniques, and decoration that were used in the construction of the Qutub Minar.

The Patrons and Architects

Qutub-ud-din Aibak, a deputy of Muhammad of Ghor, who founded the Delhi Sultanate after Muhammad of Ghor’s death, started construction of the Qutub Minar’s first story in 1199. Aibak’s successor and son-in-law Shamsuddin Iltutmish completed a further three stories.[15] After a lightning strike in 1369 damaged the then top story, the ruler at the time, Firuz Shah Tughlaq, replaced the damaged story and added one more. Sher Shah Suri also added an entrance while he was ruling and the Mughal emperor Humayun was in exile.
