Jinnah of Pakistan

Actual Grave

The actual grave is in the basement. It is an exact replica of the top sarcophagus with the only difference that in place of the intricate creeper device of the cover we have here cresent and star carved on the northern portion of the table top.

The Quranic verse inscribed on the tomb reads:

"In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
When comes the Help of God and Victory,
And thou dost see
The people enter God's Religion In crowds.
Celebrate the praises of the Lord, and pray for His foregiveness:
For He is Oft-turning (In Grace and Mercy)"
