The Interior of Sheikh Abdul Qadir Gilani's Tomb: A Glimpse into the Rich Ornamentation of an Islamic Shrine in Baghdad, Iraq This evocative photograph captures the entrance to the interior of Sheikh Abdul Qadir Gilani's tomb, located in his madrasa (religious school) in Babul-Sheikh, Rusafa on the east bank of the Tigris in Baghdad, Iraq. Dating back to the 1930s, this image offers a rare glimpse into the opulence and intricate beauty of this revered Islamic shrine. Sheikh Abdul Qadir Gilani (1077-1166 AD), also known as Imam al-Jilani, was a prominent Sufi (Islamic mystic) figure and the founder of the Qadiriya Sufi order, one of the oldest and wealthiest dervish (mystic) orders in the Islamic world. The interior of his tomb is a testament to the wealth and devotion that has accumulated over the centuries. The photograph reveals the ornate roof and entrance of the tomb, adorned with intricate tiling and geometric patterns, which are characteristic of Islamic architecture. The use of vibrant colors and intricate designs reflects the deep spiritual significance of the site, which continues to attract pilgrims from around the world. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Iraq and the Islamic world. The interior of Sheikh Abdul Qadir Gilani's tomb stands as a reminder of the enduring influence of Islamic art and architecture, and the deep spiritual connection that binds millions of Muslims around the world.
