History

72.5 meters (237.86 feet) wide Qutub Minar, the world's highest brick built statet (minaret).
Due to the desire to excite and move beyond the jam's tower, Delhi's first Muslim ruler, Qutbuddin Aibak, started the reconstruction of Qutub Minar in 1193 by breaking the monastery due to the frenzy of spreading Islam, but only on its basis Make it His successor, Iltutmish, increased the three floors in it and in 1368 Firoz Shah Tughlaq built the fifth and final floor. . The tower is made of red sandstone, on which the fine vertex of the verses of the Qur'an and the flowering of the vines is broken, which are the Arabic words by breaking the flowering bells, the Qur'an does not have rectangles. Qutub Minar is built on ancient ruins of Lalkot, ancient fort of Delhi city, Dhillika. Dhillika was the capital of the last Hindu kings of Tomar and Chauhan. The real name of Kutubaminar is Vishnu Pillar, which was not created by Qutbuddin but by another astronomer Varahamihira of Navratan of Chandra Gupta Vikramaditya. The town which is near the Qutub Minar is called Mehrauli. It is a Sanskrit word that is called Mihir-Aveli. It can be said about this town that the famous astronomer used to stay at Mihir (who was in the court of Vikramaditya) here. He was accompanied by his assistant, mathematician and technocrat. They used to study the so-called Qutub Tower for astronomical calculation. This tower, with a two-seat airplane, shows a flower of 24 Petals lotus. Its petals look like a hora or 24-hour dial. The building of the lotus flower with twenty-four petals is completely a Hindu idea. It can not be linked to any dry part of West Asia which is not produced there. There were pavilions or dome buildings for 27 constellations or constellations dedicated to the Hindu zodiac around this tower. He left a description of Qutubuddin in which he wrote that he had destroyed all these pavilions or dome buildings, but he did not write that he had made a tower. Muslim attackers used to remove the stone-dressing or stone cloth of Hindu buildings and make the next part written in Arabic by changing the face or face of the idol. The details written in Sanskrit on the pillars and walls of many complexes can still be read.The entrance of the tower is in the north, not in the west, while the importance of the West is in the Islamic theology and tradition.This was the astronomical observation tower. In the Brahmi script, it is written in Sanskrit that the column of Vishnu was made on the hill of Vishnupad Giri, which was not found in the same way as a coroneted iron pillar. From this statement it is clear that the statue of Vishnu lying in the temple situated in the middle of the tower was destroyed by Mohammed Gori and his slave Qutbuddin. The pillar was made in honor of the victories in the east and west of a Hindu king. There were seven floors in the tower which showed a week, but now there are only five floors in the tower. Sixth was dropped and was re-erected on nearby grounds. On the seventh floor, there is a statue of Brahma, who is the four face, who had taken the Vedas in his hands before creating the world. On top of Brahma's statue, there was a white marble umbrella or umbrella, in which the hour of gold was carved . The top three floors of this tower were ruined by sculptured Muslims who had hatred of the statue of Brahma. The Muslim invaders also destroyed the statue of Vishnu at the bottom of the bed, resting on the bed. The iron pillar was called the Garuda flag or the eagle pillar. It was considered as the watchman pillar of the temple of Vishnu. Temples of 27 constellations in one direction had an enclosed part. The circumference of the tower is made precisely by giving 24 turns and in turn the shape of the circle, the shape of the circle and the shape of the triangle alternately varies. This suggests that the 24th digit had social significance and it was given prominence in the premises. There are 27 sprays or holes for light coming in. If this thing is considered with 27 constellation pavilions then there is no doubt that the tower was the astronomical observation pillar
