Maulana Sher Mohammad, the Imam of the Mughal mosque built in Qutub Minar, said that the Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque on the campus of the Qutub Minar, which is being disputed, has sculptures of Hindu deities on its walls.

The Imam said that namaaz cannot be offered in a place where there are idols of deities. “The Quwwat-ul-Islam Masjid is in ruins now. Hindu organisations had raised the issue even 20 years ago, but the administration of the time had ruled in our [the masjid's] favour and quietened the matter,” he said.
