Islam & the Muslim Community in Ahmedabad

Jama Masjid of Ahmedabad (1424) – a UNESCO World Heritage site

Ahmedabad, founded by Sultan Ahmad Shah I in 1411, bears one of the richest concentrations of Islamic architecture in South Asia. The old city — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is filled with mosques, tombs, and step wells built by the Sultanate of Gujarat. The Jama Masjid, Sidi Saiyyed Mosque (famous for its intricate stone jali), and the Hutheesing Jain Temple collectively tell the story of Gujarat's pluralistic medieval identity. Ahmedabad's Muslim community today is diverse, including Sunni, Bohri, Ismaili, and other sects.
