Mekka-Moschee

Die Mekka-Moschee (Mecca Masjid) von Hyderabad ist eine der bedeutsamsten Moscheen im 2014 neugeschaffenen indischen Bundesstaat Telangana. Geschichte Sultan Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, der sechste Sultan von Golkonda, begann den Bau im Jahr 1617 unter der Leitung der beiden persischen Architekten Mir Faizullah Baig und Rangaiah Chowdary. Die Ziegel von Teilen des eigentlichen Kernbaus wurden angeblich mit aus Mekka importierter Erde hergestellt. Die Arbeiten gingen unter der Regentschaft des Abdullah Qutb Shah und Tana Shah weiter und wurden im Jahr 1694 durch den Großmogul Aurangzeb abgeschlossen. Zeitgenössischen Berichten zufolge arbeiteten 8000 Steinmetze 77 Jahre, um die Moschee zu vollenden. In einem später hinzugefügten seitlichen Annexbau befindet sich die Grablege des Herrschergeschlechts von Golkonda/Hyderabad – von Asaf Jah III. bis zu Asaf Jah VI. wurden alle Nizams dort beerdigt. Die Mekka-Moschee steht unter Denkmalschutz, aber die mangelnde Instandhaltung und eine wachsende Luftverschmutzung setzen dem Bauwerk stark zu und schädigen die Bausubstanz. Die Fassade wurde 1995 chemisch gereinigt. Um weiteren Schäden an dem wunderschönen Sakralbau vorzubeugen, hat die Regierung Andhra Pradeshs den innerstädtischen Bereich um die Moschee und das Charminar im August 2001 zu einer „Verkehrsfreien Zone“ gemacht. Architektur Der Bau folgt dem auf dem Indischen Subkontinent und angrenzenden Gebieten üblichen Typus der ‚Hofmoscheen‘. Der eigentliche – durch fünf Arkaden zum Hof hin geöffnete und mit Zinnen bekrönte – Baukörper mit seinen zwei eckständigen Minaretten, die sich mit ihren umlaufenden Balkonen an denen des Charminar orientieren, befindet sich an der Westseite der ursprünglich nach allen Seiten hin offenen Hoffläche. Die rückwärtige Qibla-Wand des über 20 m hohen, etwa 67 m breiten und ca. 56 m tiefen Moscheeraums mit der Mihrab-Mische ist in Richtung Mekka ausgerichtet. Den Raum zieren belgische Kristall-Kronleuchter, die von Asaf Jah VI. gestiftet wurden. Bombenattentat Die Mekka-Moschee war am 18. Mai 2007 während des Freitagsgebets Ziel eines Sprengstoffattentats – dabei wurden mindestens 16 Personen getötet und 56 verletzt. Weblinks
Moscheea Mecca din Hyderabad

Moscheea Mecca este o moschee din orașul Hyderabad, India. Aceasta este una dintre cele mai importante moschei din țară, fiind monument istoric. Istorie și arhitectură Construcția moscheii a început în timpul sultanului Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah (1580-1612). La construcție s-au folosit cărămizi făcute din pământ special adus pentru acest scop din orașul sfânt Mecca. Din această cauză locașul a fost numit Mecca Masjid sau Moscheea Mecca. Piatra de temelie a fost pusă de însuși Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, iar la lucrările de construcție au participat 8.000 de muncitori. Cu toate acestea, moscheea a fost finalizată abia în anul 1694, în timpul sultanului mogul Aurangzeb (1658-1707). Moscheea Mecca are o sală de rugăciune ce poate găzdui aproximativ 10.000 de oameni în acelaș timp. Edificiul este flancat de două minarete dotate cu o galerie arcuită și cupole. Multe dintre arcuri și uși sunt decorate cu motive florale sau cu versete coranice. De asemenea, complexul moscheii cuprinde și o grădină unde se află mormintele unor sultani sau lideri locali importanți și o cameră unde se află o raclă cu un fir de păr al Profetului Mohamed. Ca monument istoric, moscheea a fost restaurată în anul 1995. Pe data de 18 mai 2007, a avut loc o explozie în timpul rugăciunii de vineri ce s-a soldat cu 13 morți și câțiva răniți.

Мечеть Мекка

Мекка — одна из самых старых и самых больших мечетей, расположена в Хайдарабаде, Индия. Мечеть, как полагают, содержит священные реликвии, одна из которых является волосами Пророка Мухаммеда. Кирпичи, которые являются частью центральной арки, были принесены из святого города Мекки — отсюда и название мечети. Мечеть украшена бельгийскими хрустальными люстрами. История Была построена во время господства Султана Мухаммеда Кутб Шаха, 6-го Султана Хайдарабада. Работа началась в 1617 году и была наконец закончена в 1694 году императором Моголов, Аурангзебом. На постройку потребовалось приблизительно 8000 каменщиков и 77 лет. Легенда Легенда гласит, что султан собрал всех знатных мужей и объявил, что первый камень положит тот, кто не пропускал ни разу ни одной молитвы, но таких не нашлось, тогда султан сам взял в руки камень и положил, так как он сам не пропускал ни одной молитвы с 12 лет. Восстановление Мечеть Мекка входит в список памятников Всемирного наследия, но нехватка обслуживания, рост загрязнений постепенно разрушает структуру мечети. В 1995 году была попытка химического мытья, дабы предотвратить дальнейшее повреждение этой красивой структуры, а администрация, даже пошла навстречу ограничения с 2001 года транспортного движения около мечети. Инцидент Мечеть Мекка стала целью террористов 18 мая 2007 года: во время пятничной молитвы была взорвана бомба, вследствие чего погибло 16 человек и более чем 56 человек были ранены.

Ennore Thermal Power Station

The Ennore Thermal Power Station is a coal based power plant located in Chennai Ennore, Tamil Nadu. History Ennore Thermal Power Station was constructed to serve the purpose of energy generation in the year 1970. It is one of the four major thermal power plants of Tamil Nadu established by the Tamil Nadu Power Generation Corporation Limited. Presently it has an installed capacity of 450 MW (600,000 hp). The necessary coal arrives through ship to the Ennore Port. However, the construction of the 1,000 MW plants (1,300,000 hp) in the premise began in the year 2007. The Station presently consists of two 60-MW and three 110-MW units. A 500-MW coal-based unit was proposed, and its development started in the month of November 2007. The total cost of the venture was 270 crores. The plant was shut down on 31.03.2017 and will be replaced. Features The Power Station has been a major provider of electricity in the state and its production capacity has been improved over the years. The Ennore Power Station has also garnered various awards from the Tamil Nadu Power Generation Corporation Limited. However power deficit seems to be playing an important role for the recent decision. It also has a special treatment plant to dispose the ash slurry in a proper way. Coal for ETPS is received from MCL (Talchar and Ib Valley), Orissa and ECL, Raniganj, West Bengal. The plant load factor (PLF) for the year 2008–2009 was 49.17 percent. Capacity Shut down and Proposed Replacement After more than forty years the Power Plant was shut down permanently on March 31, 2017. It will be replaced with a single Supercritical unit of 660 MW, also run by the Tamil Nadu Power Generation Corporation Limited. The replacement does not have clearance yet. The plant is opposed by the residents who fear that the new plant will degrade the air quality and lead to a loss of fishing livelihoods. See also List of power stations in India References
St. Mary's Church, Marady

St. Mary's Jacobite Syrian Church is a church located in Kurukkunnapuram, East Marady, Muvattupuzha, Kerala, India. History From the ancient times, there was a strong Christian presence in these areas. St. George's Church, Kadamattom and St. Mary's Church, Rackad were the parishes of Jacobite believers in the earliest times. When the number of Jacobite Christians in Marady increased and they were struggling to carry on their spiritual activities in the church at a distance of miles away, the ancestors decided to build a church in Marady. The foundation stone of the church was laid on 1865 (1040 ME) at Kurukkunnapuram, a hill surrounded by paddy fields and fruit trees. Fr. Paulose Kuttipuzha led the building of the church. The construction was completed on 1867 (1042 ME) as a result of the collective activity of 70 families in Marady and nearby. The church was established with the intention of continuing to follow the traditions of Universal Syriac Orthodox Church under the Patriarch of Antioch and All the East. Reconstruction The reconstruction of the church began on 2007 and completed on 2015. On 10 February 2015, Patriarch Ignatius Aphrem II of Antioch consecrated the church during his First Holy Apostolic Visit to India. He was assisted by Catholicos Baselios Thomas I of India, and Anthimos Matthews Metropolitan. Holy altars There are five altars at the church. The main altar, the central one, is in the name of Virgin Mary, Mother of God. There are two altars on the north and south of the main one. The altar on the northern side is consecrated to Saint Thomas the Apostle and the altar on the southern side is consecrated in the name of Saint George. There are two smaller altars, to the front of the main altar. The north among these is in the name of Saint Constantine the Great and his mother, Saint Helena of Constantinople. The southern among the small altars is consecrated to Patriarch Saint Ignatius Elias III of Antioch. Holy relic The Holy Relic of Saint Shemvun Qaumo Abilo (also called Mar Kauma), a 5th-century Syriac monk who meditated for 45 years in the standing position, has been installed at the church in 1928 by Saint Osthathios Sliba, the Patriarchal Delegate of the Holy See of Antioch to India.

Errum Manzil

Errum Manzil or Iram Manzil is an expansive palace standing in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. It was built around the year 1870 by Nawab Safdar Jung Musheer-ud-daula Fakhrul Mulk, a nobleman of Hyderabad state. It is located on top of a hillock off the Khairatabad - Panjagutta road. The Errum Manzil is well known for its Indo-European baroque style of architecture. Its facades display Doric and Corinthian pilasters, arched windows with verandahs, and a central dome rising above a U‑shaped plan. The palace once included auxiliary stables, a dairy farm, and landscaped gardens, amenities befitting its princely owner. History The Errum Manzil is likely named after Iram, a lost city mentioned in the Qur'an that was said to have lofty pillars. The palace was used for royal banquets and other grand events. Later, the palace was taken over by the Government to be used as a records store-house. After some years it was again transferred into the hands of Public Works Department. Presently the land on which the palace is located houses offices of the Engineers-in-chief and the Chief Engineers of the Roads and Buildings and Irrigation/Command Area Development Departments. The Government of Telangana previously announced that the structure would be razed because of its dilapidated state. There has been a coordinated effort by locals to preserve this historic structure. This structure falls under the B2 category on the list Archaeological Survey of India. Recently, a High Court order made it illegal to demolish the structure. Architecture The Errun Manzil is well known for its Indo-European baroque style of architecture. During its heyday the palace had over 150 rooms furnished with Louis XVI furniture, nine-hole golf course, polo ground, stable for horses and a dairy farm. The palace was full of stucco and ornamental works. The palace used to overlook the Hussain Sagar, but this view has now been blocked by other buildings.

It operates 6000+ Nayara branded outlets and over 1200 petrol pumps in various states. History Nayara Energy operates the second-largest refinery in India. It is in Vadinar, Devbhoomi Dwarka District, a few kilometres from the world's largest refining complex (Jamnagar Refinery of Reliance Industries). Buyout It was a publicly traded company (NSE: ESSAROIL and BSE: 500134) until it was taken private in a leveraged buyout which closed on 30 December 2015. It was delisted valued at ₹380 billion (US$5.3 billion). Operations It operates over 7000 retail fuel outlets in the country, highest for any private oil company in India. The refinery is supported by a crude oil tanker facility, water intake facilities, a multi-fuel power plant, a product jetty, dispatch facilities (rail, road, and sea) and retail outlets. Vadinar processes ~400,000 bpd (~20 million MT/year), making it India's second‑largest single‑site refinery, with ~7,000 retail outlets under the Nayara brand. International sanctions July 2025 – European Union sanctions Source: On 18 July 2025, amid its 18th sanctions package targeting Russian oil and energy revenues, the EU designated Nayara Energy's Gujarat-based Vadinar refinery—49.13 % owned by Russia's Rosneft—as subject to sanctions, citing its status as the "biggest Rosneft refinery in India" and its role in refining Russian crude into petroleum products. These measures include: "prohibition on importing refined petroleum products made from Russian crude via third countries (effective after a 6‑month transition);" "asset freezes, travel bans, and restrictions on financial services and shipping/insurance for activities linked to refining or transporting Russian oil — including involvement in the EU "shadow fleet";" "a lowered EU oil price cap on Russian crude (approx. US$47.6/bbl, effective 3 Sept 2025) with a dynamic mechanism to prevent evasion;" Impact and response: "Nayara is banned from exporting to the EU, and risks losing access to European banking, insurance, and technology services." "India criticised the move as “unilateral” and accused the EU of “double standards”, citing strategic energy needs." "The sanctions likely hinder Rosneft’s planned 49 % stake sale and complicate Reliance’s cross-border fuel exports to Europe."
