Shahi Jam-e-Masjid Bhadra

The eyes can't capture its beauty, nor can words describe the history behind those stones.
I really appreciate how they still offer namaz inside and how the architecture is still the same.

Before the new Jama Masjid came into existence this was the place where prayers were offered by sultan Ahmed Shah I. Aka old jama masjid by locals. The mosque is active and is surrounded by beautiful garden. Best example of ancient architecture.

Visited yesterday, during the month of ramdan. They also share food for people who fast (rojdaar). Honestly speaking, in the hustle and bustle of the life. You will find immense peace in the mosque.Moreover sitting near the fountain in the middle, you will time travel to ancient and find stillness and peace of life. Alhamdulilah for everything.

The Shahi Jama Masjid in Ahmedabad was built by Sultan Ahmad Shah in 1424. It has a large courtyard colonnaded on 3 sides with entrances at each of them. On the fourth side is the domed prayer hall. The prayer hall has 15 domes and 260 pillars.
Haven of Peace early in the day

Part of the early Ahmedabad walk. A superb example of early Islamic architecture. Both sexes welcomed too.

As with other properties managed by trusts, this one also needs a facelift. However the beautifully carved pillars and dome can leave you breathless and wanting for more. I wish ASI and Waqf start paying more attention to the stupendous architectural marvels of India

Historical mosques , beautiful & clean place

One of the best architecture in Ahmedabad City.
This structure is very awesome.
The campus is green and Clean.
This heritage is being maintained by the Archaeological Survey of India.
This location is close to the Lal Darwaja Bus Terminus and Ellis Bridge.
People who are interested in old architecture should definitely visit this place once.

Just overwhelmed by the beauty of this wonderful mosque

I was there at the end of 2022

Heritage Site and one of the biggest mosque in World heritage City Ahmedabad. This was one of mosques for Royal family during the rule of King Ahmed Shah the founder emperor and ruler of Ahmedabad.

This royal mosque was originally situated in Bhadra citadel and was meant for the royal members to offer prayers. It was built by Sultan Ahmad Shah himself in A.H. 817 (A.D. 1414). The construction started in 1411 A.D. and took 3 years to complete it.

It was elegant in its simplest form. The central hall has 5 arched openings and 8 stone windows. It represents the earliest architectural style of its class in Ahmedabad. The 10 domes are adorned with smaller domes supported on 152 pillars.

Masha Allah an awesome Masjid. I am in love with designing.

I was visiting the heritage of Ahmedabad Gujarat and Ahmad Shah's Mosque which is a Shah e Jama Masjid was our priority. I and my wife could observe the Maghreb Prayer in the month of February 2019.

This very beautiful mosque was built by Ahmed Shah. Who was the first Sultan of Gujarat. This grand mosque is located near the Lal Darwaza in the range of Bhadra Fort. The design of this mosque is similar to that of the royal mosque of Cambay. This mosque is a living example of the early Islamic architecture. There are five arched gateways to enter the main prayer hall of this mosque. Its pegged ceiling rests on stone pillars, beams and arches. A special enclosure with stone screens in the northern direction is made for praying the veiled royal women. In the middle of the western wall are the main arches and member.  And all other arches are built of white marble and black stone. A lattice galleries hanging on the first floor and a special stone place in the main prayer hall were reserved for the Sultan. The roof of this mosque is adorned with 10 large domes and several smaller domes. Outside there is a water Hauz to perform wudhu means ablution in a large courtyard.  This mosque has more historical and archaeological significance. Above the main arch in the prayer hall is an inscription in Arabic language. Which shows that it's construction was completed in 817 AH 7th December 1414 AD. This royal mosque was built for the prayers of all the royal family members, nobles and the royal people.

It's a very popular attraction among history buffs wanderers soulseekers art and architecture lovers and a place of worship.
