The Samādhi is in beautiful stones. The Temple was built by Muslim artisans under the supervision of Begum Chand Bibi's maternal uncle. Both Muslims and Hindus value and pray at the four temple complex. Located three hours drive from Shirdi, outside a small village named Madhi, it is a perfect example of Muslim architecture. On climbing approximately 70 stairs you would reach the Gadh as it is commonly known. Of the four temple complexes, the centre one is that of Samadhi.
The Samādhi of the saint has approaches from three different directions. A flight of about 200 steps leads to the Samādhi. The Samādhi of the saint is made of stone in the shape of a turbat. At the four corners of the tomb there are minarets with a small-sized dome at the top of each. Over the Samādhi is a gold-plated pinnacle of brass. The shrine in which the tomb of the saint is located is a lofty building surrounded by a wall with twelve doors. There are also a few Samādhi of the disciples of the saint. A horse of brass is placed before the Samādhi of the saint.
