Sir Syed Mosque is a mosque located in the heart of Aligarh Muslim University campus. It is located inside Sir Syed Hall.[1] The tomb of Sir Syed Ahmed Khan is also enclosed within the walls of the mosque.
The construction of Jama Masjid was started in 1879 by the founder of the University, Sir Syed Ahmad Khan and completed in January 1915. [1]
The design of the mosque resembles the huge Mughal Badshahi Mosque of Lahore.
The inscriptions from the Akbarabadi Mosque (destroyed in 1857) were installed at the mosque. These inscriptions are significant as they have been designed by Amanat Khan, who also worked on the inscriptions at the Taj Mahal.[2]
