কদম রসুল মসজিদ
A single-domed mosque built in 1530 that houses a black stone said to bear the footprint of the Prophet Muhammad, still visited by worshippers.
Qadam Rasul Mosque was built in 1530 by Sultan Nusrat Shah, and its name means “footprint of the Prophet”. Inside, a black basalt stone bearing a footprint is enshrined on a marble platform, said to have been brought from Baghdad. The building is square with a single dome, eight-sided corner towers and three arches at the front. Opposite the mosque is the tomb of Fateh Khan, a Mughal general, and nearby are remains such as the Lukochuri Gate and the Chika building. Shoes must be removed before entering, and women should cover their heads.
