Tomb Of Islam Khan

Approximately ten meters to the east of the tomb of Salim Chishti is the larger tomb of Islam Khan I. The tomb, while larger than that of Salim Chishti, is less dominating due to its red sandstone cladding, which blends with the rest of the complex. Islam Khan I (Shaikh Alauddin Chisti, 1570-1613) was grandson of Shaikh Salim Chishti, and became a general in the Mughal army in the reign of Jahangir. The tomb is topped by a dome and thirty-six small domed chattris, and contains a number of graves, some un-named, all male descendants of Shaikh Salim Chisti. The tombs of the women of the Sheikh’s family are found behind the mosque.

Great...

AFTER THIS MASSACRE THE FORT IS EMPTY EVEN TILL TODAY.
किशोरावस्था से ही अत्यधिक सहवास करने के कारण अकबर नपुंसक हो गया था। जब उसके कोई बच्चा पैदा नहीं हुआ तो शेख सलीम चिश्ती ने उसे राय दी कि मेरे पास एकांत में बहुत सी नवयौवना लड़कियों से शादी करके छोड़ दो यहाँ जो मेरे चेलों से गर्भवती होकर पुत्र को जन्म दे देगी उसे ही पटरानी का ख़िताब देकर उसके पुत्र को युवराज घोषित कर देना। सब कुछ ठीक से हुआ लेकिन घोषित युवराज सलीम के जन्म की कड़वी सच्चाई फतेहपुर सीकरी के किले से बाहर निकल आई जब यह बात अकबर के पास पहुंची तो अकबर ने फतेहपुर सीकरी के किले में मौजूद सभी महिलाओं पुरुषों बच्चों व् नपुंसकों का सामूहिक क़त्ल करवाकर उनको किले के प्रांगण में ही दफनाकर कब्र बनाने का आदेश दे दिया । ये सेकड़ों कब्रें उन्ही की हैं।

He was a Mughal general and the Subahdar of Bengal. He transferred the capital of Bengal from Rajmahal to Dhaka and renamed it Jahangirnagar. He was awarded the titular name of Islam Khan by Mughal emperor Jahangir.

Another wonderful Mughal architecture.

This is the tomb of the general of the Mughal army Islam Khan I. Also the grandson of the Sufi Saint Salim Chisti, his body was laid to rest inside the Jama Masjid courtyard by Emperor Jahangir in the year 1613 AD.

The tomb of Islam khan is situated near the tomb of salim chisti inside same courtyard but less fancy and less decorated made up of red stones. Islam khan was a military commander of mughal army. He must have an important place for king that's why his tomb in this place.
