Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra
The mosque supposed to have been made in two and a half days and thus branded Adhai Din (two and a half days) Ka Jhonpra, is a classic instance damaging a Hindu or Jain synagogue severely to build a mosque, no matter what common folks think concerning the age-old qualities of the great Muslim monarchs in India. The building; whose name, in consensus with one more common belief, can also be believed to have come from a two and a half day fair held close by each year; was at first a Sanskrit university, but Muhammad Ghori changed it into a mosque in 1198 and made a seven-arched wall with sections from the Koran written into it.
