The mosque is located in West Raichota, a remote coastal area about 40 km south of Chittagong. The mosque was a critical requirement as the 35-year-old mosque had been severely affected by floods several times and lost its usability. The mosque is surrounded by an existing two-story madrasa and family graves to the south, another graveyard to the north, and a pond, a typical shelter with a primary school to the west.

The idea is to design an open and transparent space within a basic form where people can find peace and relate themselves with their surroundings. As we believe “Honesty, Transparency and Openness bring Peace of Mind.”- Dalai Lama
Being a coastal area the mosque is designed on a raised platform with a frontal plaza used for additional prayer space and social activity. Users generally enter from the east along side an open green space, usually used as playfield for the Madrasa students and an additional space for Eid Jamat, where there was a small pond earlier. A new large pond is introduced at north with a ghat for taking ablution and bath. The mosque is also connected with a rear entry from the west.

The main hall is open and transparent for that natural light and cross ventilation is ensured. The windows flood the space with daylight. Outside family graveyard and inner prayer hall both create a spiritual bench line between present life and after world. Repetitive vertical walls act as fin which cut the glair while jail (perforated) wall filters light and creates a beautiful texture of light and shadows. The geometric pattern of jail (perforated) wall is created with continuous flipping of the custom made R.C.C. blocks. A single block is designed with five arms around a pentagon with another five holes, which reflect the magnificent number ‘five’ in Islam. Five pillars of Islam, five times prayer in a day and five Kalimas.
A double height volume with glass roof is created at the area for Imam and mihrab which visually connect the upper level with the lower. Mihrab is decorated with wooden veneer panel with book shelf creates an additional focus. This double height space with glass roof invites sky and rain and creates a sense in the middle of the limit and infinite.
