Qassabtuly Mosque

[1][2] The foundation of the Qassabtuly Jam-e-Masjid (Hijri 1338), laid by Abdul Bari Bepari and others and situated in old town Dhaka in Bangladesh, was built in the year of 1919.

The building of this mosque had a remarkable impact on the Muslims of Bengal, as it introduced pre-mughal art and architecture when it was established in the year 1919.

The west facade of the building stands adjacent to two high towers, accompanied by turrets and domes.

The use of glazed tile wasn't introduced to the local Hindus up until the ornate decoration of this mosque was showcased.

The artistic designs and fine decorative skills portray the influence of Persian origin and therefore presents evidence to the Dominance of Islam in this region.
