Pathrail Mosque, 15th century Islamic complex in Bhanga Upazila, Bangladesh

The mosque structure measures 21.79 meters in length and 8.60 meters in width, with walls reaching 2 meters in thickness and a height of 6.5 meters.

Sultan of Bengal Ghiyasuddin Azam Shah ordered the construction of this religious edifice between 1393 and 1410, establishing it near the mazar of Majlis Abdullah Khan.

The walls display rectangular terracotta decorations with patterns of floral scrolls, rosettes, and arch motifs that reflect regional Islamic architectural traditions.

The building contains five eastern doorways and two entrances each on the northern and western sides, with four corner pillars supporting the ten-domed roof structure.

Next to the mosque stands Pathrail Dighi, a 32-acre water tank constructed during the same period to provide water for religious practices and community needs.
