The Ramadan Miah Mosque, also known as the Ramadan Miah Jame Mosque and the Ramzan Mia Jame Masjid (Bengali: রমজান মিয়া জামে মসজিদ, Arabic: مسجد رمضان میاں), and more popularly known as the Chowdhury Mosjid (Bengali: চৌধুরী মসজিদ), is a Sunni Friday mosque, located in the Noakhali District of Bangladesh. The mosque is situated in the village of Daulat Ramdi, located in Kabirhat Upazila's No. 7 Bataiya Union Parishad.[1]
Overview
[edit ]Built in 1770 CE, during the Mughal era,[2] the existence of the mosque was not widely known to the general public until it was brought forward to Kabirhat's upazila nirbahi officer, Shariful Islam.[3] The three-domed mosque was established by Shaykh Noor Ullah Chowdhury and Shaykh Mujeer Ullah Chowdhury, the ancestors of the current chairman of the mosque, Khwaja Mu'in ad-Din Chowdhury.[3]
