Bacha Shah Jame Masjid

Bacha Shah Jame Masjid (বাচা শাহ জামে মসজিদ) is an active Friday mosque in the village of Mahattarkill, set in the rural lowlands of Rangunia Upazila in Chittagong District, Bangladesh. More than a place of worship, it is a small centre of local memory: a mosque whose origins reach back to the early 19th century, built on the ground beside the shrine of a revered Sufi figure and rebuilt over generations into the wide, single-domed prayer hall that serves the community today. For travellers, this is not a ticketed monument but a living religious site at the heart of a Bangladesh village — worth a stop if you are passing through the Rangunia–Pomara area south of Chittagong city, curious about how faith, a saint's mazar and an old mosque anchor daily life in the countryside.
