Historical Pictures of Makkah & Madinah

These photos, printed on 15th October 1907 by H. A. Mirza & Sons of Chandni Chowk, Delhi, offer a rare glimpse into early 20th-century Islamic history. Before their later demolition, these albums preserved the architectural beauty of sacred sites—including the domed mausoleums of Jannat al-Baqi in Medina, Jannat al-Mu’alla in Mecca, and the shrine of Sayyid al-Shuhada Hazrat Hamza at Mount Uhud. Detailed Urdu calligraphic descriptions accompany the photography, underscoring both the cultural reverence and artistic value of these prints. Sharing this album helps keep alive the memory of preserved heritage and historic Islamic symbols as they stood over a century ago
