Explanation

Arai-Din-Ka-Jhonpra (also known as 'Dhai Din Ka Jhonpra') is a famous early mosque located in Ajmer, Rajasthan. It was commissioned by Qutub-ud-din Aibak in 1192 CE and completed in 1193 CE. The name means 'two-and-a-half-day hut' in Hindi/Urdu, referring to the remarkably short construction time. The structure is an excellent example of Indo-Islamic architecture with intricately carved pillars and arches. It is not located in Hyderabad, Lucknow, or Delhi.
