A Persian College of Learning in the Deccan The Mahmud Gawan Madrasa in Bidar was founded in 1472 by Mahmud Gawan, the Persian-born chief minister of the Bahmani sultanate, as a college of Islamic learning modelled on the great madrasas of Persia and Central Asia. Once faced in brightly coloured tiles and holding lecture halls, a mosque, a library and student cells around a courtyard, it was damaged over the centuries and stands today partly ruined, with only patches of its tilework and one minaret surviving.
