Chishti's tomb
Chishti's tomb was originally built with red sandstone but later converted into a beautiful marble mausoleum. Salim Chishti's Mazar (tomb) is in the middle of the Emperor's Courtyard at Fatehpur Sikri.
The mausoleum was constructed by Akbar as a mark of his respect for the Sufi saint, who foretold the birth of his son, who was named Prince Salim after him and later succeeded Akbar to the throne of the Mughal Empire, as Jahangir.
It is believed that by offering prayers at this mazar
whatever one wishes will be fulfilled. There is also a ritual of tying a
thread at the marble windows of this Dargah to in order to have one's
wishes fulfilled.
From here, we drove to Sawai Madhapur, to check in at Abrar Palace, our stay during Ranthambore Safari.
