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

Built of brick, this rectangular mosque includes three bulbous domes, octagonal towers at each corner, and three arched doorways on its eastern facade.

The mosque was constructed in 1741 by Aman Allah during the reign of Mughal emperor Muhammad Shah, as documented in the inscription above the central entrance.

The mosque divides its interior hall into three sections using multi-cusped arches, with the central mihrab being larger than those on either side.

Located on the northern bank of a large pond, the mosque features a masonry ghat and remains open for daily prayers and special religious occasions.

Between 1911 and 1928, the structure received decorative mosaics made from colored ceramic shards during renovations by the Bazra zamindars.
