In the first week of Steemit Challenge 24, I will use the Steemit-Atlas map to write about one of the most popular and beautiful places of worship (mosque) in my area. Since I am a Muslim, my place of worship is a mosque, and this mosque is one of the few beautiful mosques in our area.

*The mosque is located in our area, it is located in West Shyampur, at the foot of the capital of Bangladesh "Dhaka". It was built by our area industrialist and social worker Mohammad Sirajul Islam Siraj . The name of the mosque is hazi KafilUddin Jame Mosque. This is his father's name, and this mosque is named after his beloved father.. This mosque is a 5-storey building and is the most beautiful mosque in the surrounding areas. The mosque has an area of about 3600 square feet. It cost about 10 crores to build it. However, there is no reference to the expenditure of 10 crore rupees, it is said by everyone.

There are gardens on all four sides of the mosque, and there is an air-conditioned system inside which Muslims can worship comfortably. In addition to the 5-time prayers, Jumma prayers and Eid prayers are held there. There are 3 servants to look after the mosque, and there is an imam (The one who leads the worshippers in prayer) for prayers every day, a Muazzin (who calls the call to prayer for the 5-time prayers). However, the reason why it is so expensive to build it is because the tiles are from bottom to top, outside and inside marble tiles have been used everywhere outside.. Which is very expensive.

In addition, there are 6 ACs for beautiful prayer facilities inside and air conditioning. However, there are chairs for sitting prayer inside for the elderly who cannot pray standing. The most amazing thing is that in addition to the many sitting ablution facilities in the ablution room, all the toilets are tiled and there are several fans in the ablution room to protect from the heat, which is not the case in other mosques.

There are 06 air conditioning systems.

There is a fan in the ablution room.

There is a system for performing ablution to become pure.

There are chairs for the elderly.

I went there to offer Zuhr prayers, the only holy place for us Muslims is the mosque where we can worship Allah, and ask Allah for everything, whom we consider as the creator. There is a big gate to enter this mosque, the name of the mosque is written on it, next to it is a donation box, it is also made of tiles and has a donation box with blue writing on the white tiles. The doors of the mosque are beautiful, everything can be seen from the inside and outside. One side of the mosque is made entirely of glass, which looks beautiful from the outside and inside.

There are beautiful accommodations for the 3 servants, 1 muezzin, and an Imam in charge of the mosque, and a 3-story green building has been built next to the mosque for them. They are engaged in taking care of everything in the mosque from here.

The mosque has 2 large minarets and 3 green domes, which further enhances its beauty. Since there are many types of lights in the minarets and each light is of different colors, the beauty of the dome looks even more beautiful from a distance after evening. Inside the mosque, along with prayers, there is the book of Allah, Al-Quran, from where you can practice this book if you want.

Water is kept in bottles for food

The top is beautifully decorated and looks beautiful.

In addition, if you feel thirsty after prayers, water is kept in water bottles inside the mosque and there are almost many such bottles. This mosque can accommodate about 2200-2500 people at a time, but there is a lot of crowd during joint prayers. During Ramadan, this mosque organizes iftar(Time to break the fast) for about 100 people every day.

Despite being air-conditioned inside the mosque, there is a fan installed about every 15 feet. The mosque has been under construction for about 3 years and was established in 2015, but the mosque is open from 4:30 am to 10 pm.
