Qutub Minar was built as a victory tower to celebrate the victory of Mohammed Ghori over the Prithviraj
The exact reason is assumed to have something related to commemorating the victory. Mughals used to build victory towers to proclaim and celebrate victories. Some say the Minaret was used to offer prayer, but it is so tall that you can hear the person standing on the top. Also, the Minaret is not joined on to Qutuddin's mosque and the Iltutmish's mosque
Alai Darwaza near Qutub Minar was built by Alauddin Khalji. He also tried to build a Minar even taller than the Qutub minar but died before it could be completed.

Qutub Minar was not built by the Mughals. Qutub-ud-din Aibak of Slave dynasty started the construction of Qutub Minar which was later completed by his successor Sultan Shams-ud-din Iltutmish.
