Ataullah Rashidi

Ataullah Rushdi bin Ahmad Ma'mar[a] was a 17th-century architect and a mathematics writer from the Mughal Empire of present-day India.

As a mathematics writer, he translated the Arabic-language Khulasat al-Hisab and the Sanskrit-language Bijaganita into Persian.

Ataullah was the eldest son of Ahmad Ma'mar Lahori, the architect of Taj Mahal.

[5] The only design attributed solely to him is that of Bibi Ka Maqbara, the mausoleum of Aurangzeb's wife Dilras Banu Begum, completed in 1660-1661.

[6][1] Makramat Khan, a collaborator of his father, trained Ataullah in arithmetic, geometry, and astronomy.
