Before the Mughal style came to dominate the Islamic architecture
of the Indian sub-continent, Bengal and its rulers had developed
their own forms. The mosque architecture of the Independent
Sultanate period (from the 14th to the 16th centuries) represents
the most important element of the Islamic architecture of Bengal.
This distinctive regional style drew its inspiration from the
indigenous vernacular architecture of Bengal, itself heavily
influenced by Hindu/Buddhist temple architecture. The early Muslim
architecture of Bangladesh is an important but little studied part
of the architectural heritage of the Islamic world and the Indian
sub-continent. Perween Hasan's work is a most original contribution
to this subject.
