English: Between the walled enclosure and the fort walls lies the tomb of the 7th king of the Qutb Shahi Dynasty, Abdullah Qutb Shah. The grandson of the founder of Hyderabad (Sultan Muhammed Quli Qutb Shah) and the son of the 6th Qutb Shahi king (Sultan Muhammed Qutb Shah), Abdullah Qutb Shah was a polyglot and a lover of poetry and music, who reigned over Golconda from 1626 C.E to 1672 C.E. Following his death in 1672 C.E, he was buried at Ibrahim Bagh, meters away from his mother's, father's and grandfather's tombs. His tomb that lies amidst other royal tombs at Ibrahim Bagh, Hyderabad has a square base, pointed arches and an ornate dome that was once covered in green and turquoise tiles, built to Persian, Hindu, and Pathani styles of architecture. Inside the tomb lies his Sarcophagus, right above the burial vault in a crypt below. The Sarcophagus is covered in a Celtic green and crimson red funeral pall that is embroidered in gold. It is placed in a partly open wooded railing that stands on an elevation. On the Sarcophagus, there are two apparent bands of inscription in the Naksh and Tauq scripts. Surrounding the sarcophagus, at the corners of the tomb are four open-ended right angled passageways that have exterior walls with hollow windows painted in umber brown. The tombs of his courtesan-turned-love interests, Premamati and Taramati, lie a few meters west of his tomb. After enduring the suzerainty of Shah Jahan, repudiating his allegiance towards Aurangazeb, being captured by him and, getting his daughter (Padshah Bibi Saheba) married to Aurangazeb's eldest son (Muhammad Sultan), he now lies at the Qutb Shahi tombs, said to be the largest necropolis in the world, along with his mother, father, grandfather and love interests, in all serenity life denied to provide him with.
