Shah 'Abd al-Wahab Roza
Ahmedabad, India

‘Abd al-Wahab’s Roza is a mosque-tomb complex in the Khanpur neighborhood of Ahmedabad. The complex contains multiple domed tombs and a mosque of later construction.

 

The tomb is a square building with a large dome over its center. The dome covers a central chamber demarked from the rest of the building by arches that span the pillars supporting the dome. A double ambulatory surrounds this central domed chamber. Smaller domes cover the bays in this ambulatory.
