The central dome of a 200-year-old mosque in the Indian capital New Delhi has come crashing down due to the heavy monsoon rains in the city.
The red sandstone Mubarak Begum mosque, built by a courtesan in 1823, is among some of the iconic heritage sites in the historic old quarters of the city.
On Sunday, the flooding in the city killed two people leading to the collapse of many houses and trees.
"At around 6.45 am [01:15 GMT], the dome collapsed with a huge sound," the mosque's 45-year-old imam Mohammad Zahid told Anadolu Agency.
"I was sleeping in my room inside the mosque when I heard thunder. We have since locked the mosque. But we continued offering namaz [prayers] and teachings in the open courtyard."
Zahid has been the muezzin (who calls for prayers) and imam at the mosque since 2004. He revealed that the last repair at the historic mosque was done in 2016.
