_{Hello Everyone I Am @MEMAMUN 👳‍♀️ From #Bangladesh}

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 third 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.

What kind of religious cultural place have you visited? Introduce briefly.

According to the question, I went to a religious place called a mosque. It is a fundamental pillar of Islam. The most sacred place in our Islam is called a mosque. We say that it is the house of Allah and the holiest place for Muslims. I will discuss this mosque. This mosque is located in Bogura district town in the northern part of Bangladesh, right next to Altafunnesa playground. The name of this mosque is Baitul Hafiz Jame Mosque.

How to come to this mosque: You need to come to this mosque in Bogura city, in the northern part of Bangladesh. Then, the main area of the city is called Satmatha, and from this Satmatha, a straight road goes east to Altafunnesa Maidan. You need to come to this field, which is located about one hundred yards east. This mosque is located right next to the gate of the field, and it operates centered around this field. There are local people and Muslims here, and those who play in the field sincerely observe the five daily prayers. This was a brief introduction to this mosque.

What kind of religious activities are seen here? (With pictures + videos)

The mosque is a two-story mosque, located in a place where people in the nearby area prefer this mosque much more than going to any other mosque, and it is also nearby. Moreover, the most important point is that it is situated in a place in Bogura where Altafunnesha Field is much more well-known than other areas. For this reason, this mosque is very functional for all the people who stay here and play sports in this field.

The mosque is a two-story building, and it was constructed around an area of approximately three to four hundred square feet inside the mosque. Next to the mosque, there is a field and a paved road about 10-12 feet wide. This ensures very good accessibility for people. The mosque has a main gate through which one can access the ground floor and the second floor. Upon entering, you will see the gate, stairs to go to the upper floor, an ablution area, and arrangements for fulfilling necessary needs.

A mosque is a very sacred place, and generally, those who are Muslims and love Allah come to this mosque to pray. They gather here to perform the five daily prayers and focus their attention on Allah sincerely. Treating those who are on this path well and meeting their needs is considered a great deed and a virtuous act. For this reason, the mosque authorities always strive to keep everything organized and beautiful for the worshippers who come to pray.

For this purpose, the mosque has two khatibs who lead the Friday prayers, and there are also two imams who lead the five daily prayers. Additionally, there are two muezzins and one servant who give the call to prayer through the microphone and always ensure the mosque is clean and well-maintained. Moreover, the mosque authorities have arranged many facilities for the worshippers, such as prayer caps, prayer mats, cleanliness, air conditioning, and fans, which I have shown in the pictures below.

This mosque was built in 2018. The mosque was founded as a two-story structure. I heard all this information from the caretaker of the mosque. As far as I could learn, the mosque is very strong. For this reason, the foundations of the mosque are very solid. The mosque's walls, as well as its windows and doors, are very beautiful and handsome. This makes the worshippers feel comfortable and find it well-organized when they come here.

The location of the mosque, its beauty, and the interest of the locals made me realize that the mosque is indeed situated in a beautiful place. I have presented to you as much as I could, starting from the outside of the mosque to the inside. Just the way I took the pictures, I tried to make a beautiful video from the outside to the inside of the mosque. Through the video, you will be able to understand and get more familiar with the mosque more clearly.

What attracted you the most about this place? Or show the prices of books at that religious equipment store.

To be honest, I was born a Muslim, and the place that fascinates me the most is the mosque. So, for me, any part of the mosque or around the mosque is appealing. Rather, the entire mosque is the most fascinating to me. For every Muslim, the most fascinating place should be the mosque because it is the house created by Allah. Still, if I have to say which part of this mosque actually attracts me the most, it is its prayer area.

The member's area in the mosque is the most attractive place. It is at this very spot that our Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) stood and delivered speeches, calling people to the path of guidance. Right next to that, the imam stands to lead the prayers just as our Prophet (peace be upon him) used to do. At this very place now, the esteemed scholars who are guides stand and deliver speeches for the worshippers and for the nation. This place is an attractive spot for me. Additionally, you can see the shelf here, which contains Islamic books, including books on Hadith and the Quran, which is truly fascinating.

Is there any special moment or experience?

There is no memorable moment in the mosque or any such moment that I can present to you. Because we pray in different places and enjoy different moments in different places. However, even though there isn't a mosque-centered incident at this moment, I have a pleasant experience when I go to review this mosque. When I go to review this mosque, it is just before the Asr prayer. At this moment, when I enter inside, I take a selfie.

The person present here came up to me and introduced himself by offering me salaam. The main reason was that I am not an ordinary person; rather, I am someone like him, wearing a beard, turban, and a jubba, which is why he greeted me with salaam and got acquainted with me. He also asked me why I was taking pictures. I then explained the matter to him, and at the same time, I got to know him. Through this platform, or because of prayer, or because of the mosque, I was able to get acquainted with a stranger. It was a wonderful moment and a beautiful incident.
