Asrafia Jame Masjid


Architectural elements and style


Although the masjid was built in the British Raj period, the structure followed the prior period Mughal Renovations. It was built as an extremely tall single-storied Masjid with great emphasis of the vertical qualities where the one Mihrab is located in the western wall, stood from the base of the ground floor to one-third the height of the first floor. There are small four domes in the four sides of the roof seems to be part of Mughal Architectural Style which all but jeopardized the structural beauty defined by the relationship between the domes and Minar. Inside of Masjid at western wall upon Mihrab written لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله By Calligraphy with Glass and Stone flowing Mughal style . The Design Of Mihrab was made Pieces Of Glass and Minimum Five(05) Colours Precious Stone. The architecture of the Asrafia Jame Masjid is defined by a combination of embellishments and proportional adjustment among elements such as arches, domes, mihrab etc.
