Generally, Islamic tombs are enclosed within perforated marble screens or jalis that are intricately carved, forming the walls of the entire structure, through which one can view the inside of it, and so is the tomb of Imam Zamin.<\/li><li>Imam Zamin, as recorded by many early historians, is said to have arrived in India around 1500 AD, during the reign of Sikandar Lodi, the last of the Delhi Sultans. He travelled all the way from Turkestan, the regions of Central Asia, to Delhi where he spent his last days as a Sufi saint.<\/li><li>Zamin was also believed to have lived during the early days of Babur, who became the first Mughal Emperor of India in 1526, and breathed his last during the reign of Emperor Humayun, the successor of Babur.<\/li><li>Zamin, the Sufi mystic of the Chisti order, himself commissioned the construction of his tomb, and was laid to eternal rest in the small, but aureate shrine.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Delhi, the capital of India, is full of tombs and standalone monuments belonging to various dynasties, especially of the Medieval period, scattered all over the place.
