HAZRAT SYED SALEH R.A. WAS A GREAT SUFI SAINT AT THE TIME OF AKBAR. IT IS SAID THAT AKBAR THE GREAT, THE MEDIEVAL PERIOD KING OF INDIA HAD ALL THE WAY SAILED THROUGH JAMUNA RIVER FROM AGRA AND VISITED FATEHPUR TO PAY HIS RESPECT TO HAZRAT SYED SALEH R.A. DURING HIS LIFE TIME. AFTER THE DEATH OF SAINT PERHAPS ON AKBAR'S INSTRUCTIONS A BIG IMPRESSIVE TOMB OF HARD GRANITE STONE WAS BUILT TO COVER THE GRAVE OF THIS SUFI SAINT. ONLY INSIDE MARBLE IS USED. IT NEEDS AN URGENT ATTENTION OF WORLD HERITAGE TO PROTECT THIS WONDERFUL BUILDING. FOR DETAILS PLEASE CONTACT: Professor(Dr.)S.S.A.JAFRI: jafri_ssa@rediffmail.com
