Baitul Mukarram continues to be amazing since it was built decades ago during my boyhood. Located at the city center, it is the biggest mosque of the city which also houses a sprawling shopping center. I remember buying my first wrist watch from there. With traffic increasing year after year, some people living far do not go there anymore, but the icon still holds its pride and charm.

Baitul Mukarram, also spelled as Baytul Mukarrom (Arabic: بيت المكرّم‎; Bengali: বায়তুল মোকাররম; The Holy House) is the national mosque of Bangladesh. Located at the center of Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh, the mosque was completed in 1968.The mosque has a capacity of 30,000, giving it the respectable position of being the 10th biggest mosque in the world. However the mosque is constantly getting overcrowded. This especially occurs during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which has resulted in the Bangladeshi government having to add extensions to the mosque, thus increasing the capacity to at least 40,000.

The mosque complex includes shops, libraries, offices and parking areas. The main prayer hall has an area of 26,517 square feet with an additional mezzanine floor on the eastern side which measures 1,840 square feet. The mosque complex of Baitul Mukarram was designed by the architect T Abdul Hussain Thariani. Non-Muslims can normally enter outside of prayer time. The Baitul Mokarram mosque is modern in its architectural style. But it has not discarded traditional principles of mosque architecture. It has found its place in the hearts of the Muslims because of the resemblance of its form to the famous Kaba at Mecca.
