Bazra Shahi Jam-e-Masjid

Bazra Shahi Jam-e-Masjid, Mughal mosque in Begumganj Upazila, Bangladesh.

Bazra Shahi Jam-e-Masjid is a brick mosque in Begumganj Upazila with a rectangular layout, three bulbous domes, and octagonal towers at each corner. The eastern facade features three arched gateways that serve as the main entrances to the building.

Construction began in 1741 under Mughal emperor Muhammad Shah, commissioned by Aman Allah as recorded in an inscription above the central doorway. The zamindars of Bazra later added decorative ceramic mosaics during restoration work in the early 20th century.

The mosque displays typical Mughal architectural features with its interior divided into three sections by ornately decorated arches. The central prayer niche is larger than those on either side and gives the building its distinctive balanced character.

The building sits on the northern bank of a large pond with a stone ghat providing access to the structure. It remains open daily for prayers and sees greater activity during important religious occasions.

The decorative mosaics that characterize this building were not part of its original construction but were added decades later. These colorful ceramic fragments give the mosque an artistic feature that reflects its long history of use and care.
