“Mosque architecture in Bengal reflects adaptation to local climate and materials.” [4]

Abstract:


Chunakhola Mosque is a fifteenth-century brick mosque in Bagerhat, Bangladesh, representing the regional architectural tradition of the Bengal Sultanate. It reflects the localized style associated with the legacy of Khan Jahan Ali, characterized by a square plan, a single dome, and restrained terracotta ornamentation. Its design demonstrates how Islamic architectural forms were adapted to Bengal’s environmental and material conditions [1][6].


History:


Chunakhola Mosque dates to the mid-to-late fifteenth century, during the Bengal Sultanate period when the Bagerhat region developed as a major center of Islamic settlement and administration. This region, historically known as Khalifatabad and now part of modern Bagerhat, is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its concentration of historic monuments [6].


The development of this area is closely associated with Khan Jahan Ali, who is credited with establishing settlements and promoting mosque construction across southwestern Bengal [1][3]. According to Archnet documentation, Chunakhola Mosque is part of this broader architectural landscape and is dated through stylistic analysis rather than inscriptional evidence [1].


Scholarly studies describe the mosques of Bagerhat as belonging to a coherent regional tradition often referred to as the “Khan Jahan style,” characterized by brick construction, dome-centered layouts, and consistent proportional systems [2]. Research published in academic journals indicates that mosque construction in Bengal during this period was shaped by localized patronage rather than centralized imperial planning, resulting in a unified but regionally adapted architectural identity [2][4].


Hasan’s work further explains that Bengal’s mosque architecture developed through the adaptation of Islamic architectural principles to local environmental conditions, including high humidity, monsoon climate, and the availability of alluvial clay for brick production [3]. Within this framework, Chunakhola Mosque represents both a religious and architectural continuation of fifteenth-century Bengal traditions.


Architecture:


Chunakhola Mosque follows the single-domed square mosque typology typical of Bengal Sultanate architecture. It is constructed primarily of baked brick, reflecting the widespread use of local materials in the absence of stone in the deltaic region [1][4].


The mosque consists of a square prayer chamber covered by a hemispherical dome supported through squinch transitions, which enable the structural shift from a square base to a circular dome [1]. The eastern façade features three arched entrances, while additional entrances on the north and south sides provide access and ventilation, maintaining a balanced spatial arrangement [1].


The western qibla wall contains three mihrabs, with the central mihrab emphasized in size and decorative detail. Four corner turrets reinforce the structure and contribute to its visual symmetry, a recurring feature in mosques associated with the Khan Jahan architectural tradition [1]. Terracotta ornamentation is applied in geometric and floral patterns, enhancing surface articulation while maintaining structural clarity [3].


Curved cornices and compact proportions further align the mosque with regional stylistic conventions observed across the Mosque City of Bagerhat. Architectural studies note that such features illustrate how Bengal mosque architecture integrates local construction methods with Islamic spatial organization to produce a distinctive regional form [4].
