[2] The tomb in Mughal and Qutb Shahi styles with elaborate stucco decorations and fretwork screens (jalis) was built by Nawab Abdul Haq Diler Jung, one of the richest nobles of the time, in memory of his mother Hazrath Saidani Ma Saheba in 1883, during the reign of Asaf Jah VI.

[3][4] Sardar Abdul Haq, who was originally from the Bombay Province bore the title Diler Jang.

The structure also has the tomb of Nawab Diler Jung, the son of Saidani Ma, and a Muslim graveyard at the rear.

In 2022, the Telangana government initiated efforts to reclaim the lost glory of Hyderabad by reviving many historic landmarks scattered across the city.

The restoration work of the Saidani Ma tomb was undertaken by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture and was completed in October 2023 after several decades of neglect.
