  • Seismic Vulnerability of Some Historical Masonry Mosques in Bangladesh
    4th Annual Paper Meet and 1st Civil Engineering Congress, December 22-24, 2011, Dhaka, Bangladesh ISBN: 978-984-33-4363-5 Noor, Amin, Bhuiyan, Chowdhury and Kakoli (eds) www.iebconferences.info Seismic vulnerability of some historical masonry mosques in Bangladesh M.A. Noor Department of Civil Engineering, Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, Dhaka, Bangladesh M. Kamruzzaman Department of Civil Technology, Chittagong Polytechnic Institute, Chittgong, Bangladesh ABSTRACT: Ancient masonry structures are particularly vulnerable to dynamic actions, especially seismic actions. Although no major earthquakes occur in this country in the last few decades, during the past large earthquakes the masonry structures of this country behaved poorly. This paper presents a contribution to the safety assessment of historical masonry mosques located in different districts of Bangladesh. The approach used here aims at a simple, fast, and low cost procedure suggested by Lourenco and Oliveira based on a sim- plified geometric approach for immediate screening of the large number of mosques at risk. The proposed geometrical indices of monuments are compared with the respective seismic hazard, expressed by the PGA. The objective is to evaluate the possibility of adopting simple indexes related to geometrical data as a first (and very fast) screening technique to define priority for further studies. 1 INTRODUCTION In 1897, an earthquake of magnitude 8.7 caused serious damages to buildings in the northeastern part of India (including Bangladesh) and 1542 people were killed. The epicenter was at 230 kms from Dhaka City. During this earthquake almost all existing masonry structures of Bangladesh were either partially or fully destroyed. Figure 1 presents an isoseismal map showing the area under which the masonry structures were affected (An- sary & Noor 2005).

  • Development of Sufism in Bengal
    DEVELOPMENT OF SUFISM IN BENGAL ABSTRACT Thesis Submitted for the degree of JBottor of $I)tlo£iopIi|> IN ISLAMIC STUDIES BY MUHAMMAD ISMAIL Under the supervision of Mr. AZOUDDIN KHAN READER DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1989 1 The present work seeks to investigate the Development of Sufism in Bengal from the thirteenth to the twentieth century. Mo serious attempt has so far been Tiade to reconstruct the history of Sufism in i^-'ngal. The attention of the most of the scholars has centred- round the political history of Bengal,- making occasior. 1 references to its Saints but their accounts are uncritical and generally based upon the later hagiological material. In the present work an attempt has been made to make a fairly extensive and critical use of all sources available. Throughout the work we have attempted to justify by reasonable argument our reliance on a parti- cula'r source, wherever there has been a conflict of evidence or a contradiction. This aspect of the development of Sufism in Bengal is based on brief references found in the chronicles of Northern India and on the data collected from a study of inscriptions, coins and other archae^ogical evidence.. There is, however, sufficient materials in these chronicles as well as in the contemporary literature both Persian and Bengali available, with the help of which Develoo- nent of Sufisn in ^engal can be reconatructecl. In fact the Islaiaic proslelytization of India did not begin with coercion and blloashed; the first conversion were made by its Saints. Bengal's contact with the wiUslims, in the field of trade, colonization, and missionary work, began much earlier than its conquest in the thirteenth century.

  • Terracotta, Stone-Carving and Calligraphic Art of Medieval Bengal: an Aesthetic Treatment
    http://www.bmri.org.uk Terracotta, Stone-Carving and Calligraphic Art of Medieval Bengal: An Aesthetic Treatment. Dr. A K M Yaqub Ali* [Abstract: The architectural edifices of ancient and medieval Bengal are not denuded of ornamental representation in the form of figurative art, floral designs and abstract motifs. Terracotta and stone-carving as an aesthetic art was not unknown in ancient Bengal. The terracotta ornamentations in the Buddhist Viharas and the Hindu temples bear witness to this fact. The stone-carving art profusely worked in the Buddhist and Hindu deities of ancient Bengal attracts the attention of the connoisseurs of art. But the calligraphic art in the truest sense of the term was scarcely noticed on any object of embellishment of ancient-Bengal. On the other hand these three types of ornamental art could satisfactorily be found in the monuments and architectural members of medieval Bengal. Here the time span of medieval Bengal can tentatively be counted from the Muslim conquest at the early 13th to the 3rd quarter of 16th century of the Christian era. In this short paper an attempt has been made to focus on the fascinating points of terracotta, stone-carving and calligraphic variegations with illustrations from the extant examples of the period understudy. Pertinently it may be mentioned here that in most of the cases the interpretations though of mine are based on facts and substantiated by arguments. One may differ with me on some points, and that will be welcoming for further investigation.] The architectural edifices of ancient and medieval Bengal are not denuded of ornamental representation in the form of figurative art, floral designs and abstract motifs.

  • Bottor of ^Fjilosfoptip in HISTORY
    SOCIO-POLITICAL LIFE IN INDIA DURING 16^h. 17th CENTURIES AS REFLECTED IN THE SUFI LITERATURE ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Bottor of ^fjilosfoptip IN HISTORY BY KAMAL AKHTAR Under the Supervision of DR. IQBAL SABIR CENTRE OF ADVANCED STUDY DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2008 ABSTRACT Sufism is an important segment of our social life. It has played significant role in developing social, cultural and political trends in India during the medieval period. The Chishtiya and Suharwardiya silsilas exerted great influence on the social, cultural and political trends of the Indian sub­ continent, during the Sultanate period. In closing years of the fourteenth century the Qadiriya Silsilah also appeared in the spiritual scenario of the country. Similarly, at the end of the sixteenth century the Naqshbandi Silsilah too entered into India and dominated its religious atmosphere during the whole seventeenth century. 'When we make a survey of the sufi's activities since the beginning of the sixteenth century, we find Shaikh Abdul Quddus Gangohi, an eminent saint of the Sabiriya branch of the Chishti order, as a pioneering personality. Though the early Chishtis of the Sultanate period always avoided th(; company of rich people and ruling class. Shaikh Abdul Quddus maintained cordial relations with the contemporary rulers. The collection of his letters contains epistles addressed to Sikandar Lodi, Ibrahim Lodi, Babur and Humayun and also to several contemporary nobles and officials. The other important saint of the sixteenth century was Saiyid Mohammad Ghauth of Gwalior who belonged to the Shattari Silsilah.

  • Awqaf Properties in Bengal Since the Period of Muslim Rule
    Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bangladesh (Hum.), Vol. 65(2), 2020, pp. 103-121 AWQAF PROPERTIES IN BENGAL SINCE THE PERIOD OF MUSLIM RULE Khoundkar Alamgir Abstract Giving immovable properties to charity began in Bengal from the very beginning of Muslim rule in 1204 and mosques, Madrasahs and Khanqahs were established to create a Muslim community. Henceforth, awqaf (plural of waqf) were created in Bengal by the state, noblemen of the community and wealthy individuals. There are various references of Awqaf in archaeological and literary sources. Sian inscription, Birbhum, West Bengal (1221); Sitalmat inscription, Naogaon, Bangladesh (1254); Nayabari inscription, Manikganj (1595); Bara Katra inscription, Dhaka (1642) are incontrovertible evidences of awqaf in Bengal. Sultan Nasiruddin Nusrat Shah (1519-1532) son of Sultan Alauddin Husain Shah (1494-1519) of Bengal established Bagha mosque (1523) of Rajshahi and Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan (16401646 donated lands for the maintenance of the madrasah attached to it. It was a pre- Mughal establishment. Food, lodging and other necessities of the students were fulfilled out of the income of the Waqf property. According to another land grant a mosque, a madrasah and other religious institutions were maintained out of the income of 2,750 bighas of land at Mahi Santosh, Naogaon district, Bangladesh even in the 19th century (in the decaying period). According to sources Lalbagh (at present known as a fort) was originally a waqf property of Nawab Shaista Khan, a Mughal Subadar who ruled Bengal for long 24 years (1664-1688 with a break for one year). Haji Muhammad Mohsin of Hooghly, West Bengal established a large endowment in the Colonial period.
