Islamic contribution to Indian architecture is far reaching and undeniable.[citation needed] New modes and principles of construction were developed reflecting the religious and social needs of the adherents of Islam.
[edit] Masjid and MandirPrior to the Muslim incursions into India, open space in Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain constructions was constrained by the length of the stone slabs which could be spanned across two columns.
