    4th ka answer Fanaa hona chiye.

    Tawhid is the concept of monotheism in Islam. It is the religion’s most fundamental concept and holds God is one and unique.
    The last stage in the Sufiistic journey
    fanaa movie maine bhi dekhi hai. :p

    Chatra is a part of Buddhist architecture. It is the dominant aspect of Buddhist architecture outside India, you’ll find most Pagodas have Chatra as a symbol of Boddhisattva.

    Anda is the Buddhist domed architecture. It was the characteristic difference between Hindu and Buddhist architecture.

    Sopana is the steps inside a Stupa. It is circular and said to represent the eternal turning of Life.

    Pitha is the only non-Buddhist architecture here. Pitha is more ancient than Buddhism and more exclusively tied to Hinduism than Buddhism.

    Answer 1 is decidedly wrong.

    Hi All,
    Some of us may be in confusion on 3rd question.

    Please refer this.

    Fanaa (Arabic: فناء‎‎ fanāʾ ) is the Sufi term for “passing away” or “annihilation” (of the self).[1] Fana means “to die before one dies”, a concept highlighted by famous notable Muslim saints such as Rumi and later by Sultan Bahoo.[2] Fana represents a breaking down of the individual ego and a recognition of the fundamental unity of God, creation, and the individual self.[1] Persons having entered this enlightened state obtain awareness of the intrinsic unity (Tawhid) between Allah and all that exists, including the individual’s mind. It is coupled conceptually with baqaa, subsistence, which is the state of pure consciousness of and abidance in God. ( Source — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fana_(Sufism) )
