SLC31-W2 | The Curious Explorer : Offbeat Landmarks.
ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ ٱللَّٰهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ
Dear friends, I hope you are all doing well. I am also Alhamdulillah, doing very well by the endless mercy of Allah. I have come to participate in the second week of the engagement week contest. The journey of this contest started through our beloved and respected elder brother @max-pro and it is still ongoing. Today, I am participating here centered around the topic he has provided.
According to the question, I have chosen one mosque from among them as the answer to the question, and it is a famous mosque. I have selected the famous mosque from the subjects of the competition. The name of this mosque is Kusumba Jame Mosque. It is located in Naogaon District in the northern part of Bangladesh, approximately 30 kilometers from Naogaon District, in Prasadpur, where the Kusumba Jame Mosque is situated.

To reach here, first, you need to come to Naogaon. From the town of Naogaon, you can take any vehicle directly to go here. Whether by bus or motorcycle, you will directly reach Prasadpur Market. From there, Kusumba is the name of an area, and once you enter from there, you will find such a famous mosque. Additionally, many people are aware of this unsurveyed tourist site and the Kusumba Mosque.
This is a mosque, and we probably all know what activities usually take place in a mosque. However, this mosque is a famous mosque. Although we will discuss the history of this mosque in the next question, let me give a small clue beforehand. This mosque is located on the bank of the Kusumba Dighi. And this mosque is made of stone; it was constructed during the Stone Age using stone.
The mosque is beautifully enclosed on all sides, that is, it has walls beautifully grating the surroundings. Additionally, in front of the mosque, a small canopy has been beautifully hung so that if there are a large number of worshippers, they can offer prayers here. People come here for the five daily prayers and perform prayers. Moreover, around this mosque, some staff and workers are engaged in performing their duties. I am presenting some pictures below.

The surprising thing is that inside this mosque, it is not like the system of other mosques; instead, it is a bit different because this is a mosque from the time of the Amols, even in that era, and it is made of stone. And because of this, the interior is somewhat different—it's a very tall, large-style building and only a single floor, just one building. And on one side, there is a separate prayer area, a second-floor system, but not entirely, rather a small system where five to six people can pray. Moreover, the systems inside actually felt different. I am presenting the pictures below in front of you.
All in all, I felt that this mosque is a famous mosque and it is a noteworthy place, and many people come here from far and wide, making beautiful videos and photographs. Although the question mentioned the price, to be honest, no ticket is required to visit this mosque. So there is no cost here, only the car rental fee depending on where you are coming from. Additionally, I have made a light and brief video inside this mosque which I am presenting to you.
Bellow this Video from my YouTube channel
The plaque at the entrance of the mosque states that the mosque was built in Hijri 966 (1558-1569 AD) During the reign of Giasuddin Bahadur Shah, who was the late ruler of the Sur dynasty in the Afghan period, a person named Sulaiman built this mosque.
In the earthquake of 1897, three domes of the mosque were destroyed Later, they were renovated by the Department of Archaeology. Subsequently, in 2017, flower gardens were established around the mosque and on the banks of the pond on the eastern side, along with lighting arrangements.
In the first part of the twentieth century, Surendra Mohan Chowdhury, the overseer of the Rajshahi District Council, discovered an inscription from the ancient ruins of the village of Kusumba. The inscription is currently preserved in the Varendra Museum of Rajshahi.
This is a wonderful question; this question itself is good. Regarding my experience, as an adventurous and curious person, I am presenting it to you. We had gone to another place, Rajshahi, and on the way there, we visited this mosque. The main purpose was not to perform prayers, as it was not prayer time at that moment. So we went there just to see the mosque and to review it.

Since the purpose was not to perform prayers, we could not present an experience of praying to you. However, after going there, we saw that the people there were very kind and gave us great respect. In addition, the people around the area are very polite, and we saw many performing various types of voluntary prayers. Personally, I captured quite a few photos and videos and enjoyed some beautiful moments.
