Their history dates back to the time of Mughal Emperor Akbar. On the property is a 250-year-old house secured by a boundary wall and a portico.\u00a0 Just outside the entrance to the courtyard was an old mosque that, although it was a simple shed, was much visited. When the family decided to redevelop the entire site\u2014Architect Abu Sayeed undertook the renovation of the house\u2014the plan to build a new mosque also emerged. MTA designed the prayer hall with a span of 13 meters made of load-bearing bricks. A continuous concrete 2,5 m high lintel ties the entire structure together. Openings in the walls allow daylight to enter the space, creating a play of light and shadow and providing a spiritual atmosphere. The extended pedestal on the forecourt is intended as a gathering place for villagers. Unlike the Bait-ur-Rouf mosque, which has only narrow openings, the Alfadanga Mosque was designed as a pavilion that allows a visual connection to the green surroundings. With its simplicity and chosen material, it is also in direct dialogue with the restored residential building, which has a brick fa\u00e7ade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19184,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"cycle":[80],"class_list":["post-19183","short-list","type-short-list","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cycle-5th"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/short-list\/19183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/short-list"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/short-list"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/short-list\/19183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19220,"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/short-list\/19183\/revisions\/19220"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cycle","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfozanaward.org\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cycle?post=19183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
