About Jam Nizamuddin II

  • Jám Nizámuddín II (Sindhi: ??? ???? ????? ????, Urdu: ??? ???? ????? ?????; 1439–1509), also known as Jam Nizam al-Din or Jám Nindó (Sindhi: ??? ?????), was the Rajput Sultan of Sindh between 1461 and 1508 CE.
  • He was the most famous ruler of the Samma dynasty, which ruled Sindh, parts of Punjab and Balochistan from 1351 to 1551 CE.
  • His capital was Thatta in modern-day southern Pakistan.
  • The Samma dynasty reached the height of its power during the reign of Nizamuddin, who is still recalled as a hero, and whose rule is considered the golden-age of Sindh. Nizamuddin's grave is located on Makli Hill and part of the world heritage site of Historical Monuments at Makli.
  • The tomb is an impressive stone structure with fine ornamental carving similar to the 15th-century Gujrat style.
  • It has been restored but unfortunately, it suffers from cracks and wall distortions caused by rough weathering and erosion of the slope on which it stands.
  • After his death, his son Jám Ferózudin lost the Sultanate in 1525 CE to an invading army of Shah Beg Arghun, who had been thrown out of Kandahar by Babur.
