Arifil Mosque, Historical mosque in Sarail Upazila, Bangladesh.

The Arifil Mosque stands with three large domes, four corner towers, and five entrances arranged across its rectangular structure measuring 24 meters in length.

Shah Arif constructed the Arifil Mosque in 1662 during the Mughal period, when Sarail served as a significant district within the Sylhet Sarkar administration.

The mosque integrates Bengali architectural elements with Persian influences, featuring intricately designed mihrabs and arched alcoves throughout its prayer halls.

Visitors can reach the mosque by train from Dhaka to Chittagong, with local transportation available from Sarail Upazila center, approximately one kilometer east.

The mosque contains an ancient echo system created through polished surfaces, while mysterious underground tunnels extend from adjacent historical graves.
