Built in mid 1800s by the family of Tipu Sultan, who were shifted to Calcutta, this mosque is very much similar to the other Tipu Sultan mosque at Esplanade.The campus has an imambara, a dried-up lake and the graves of Tipu Sultans family members.Regular prayers are held here at prescribed times. Juma prayers start at 12:45 PM.

3 hadees from sahih bukhari1Narrated Abdullah bin Umar: Allahs Apostle ordered for a horse race; the trained horses were to run from a place called Al-Hafya to Thaniyat Al-Wada and the horses which were not trained were to run from Al-Thaniya to the Masjid (mosque of) Bani Zuraiq. The sub narrator added: Ibn Umar was one of those who took part in the race.2Narrated Anas: Some goods came to Allahs Apostle from Bahrain. The Prophet ordered the people to spread them in the mosque --it was the biggest amount of goods Allahs Apostle had ever received. He left for prayer and did not even look at it. After finishing the prayer, he sat by those goods and gave from those to everybody he saw. Al-Abbas came to him and said, O Allahs Apostle! give me (something) too, because I gave ransom for myself and Aqil Allahs Apostle told him to take. So he stuffed his garment with it and tried to carry it away but he failed to do so. He said, O Allahs Apostle! Order someone to help me in lifting it. The Prophet refused. He then said to the Prophet: Will you please help me to lift it? Allahs Apostle refused. Then Al-Abbas threw some of it and tried to lift it (but failed). He again said, O Allahs Apostle Order someone to help me to lift it. He refused. Al-Abbas then said to the Prophet: Will you please help me to lift it? He again refused. Then Al-Abbas threw some of it, and lifted it on his shoulders and went away. Allahs Apostle kept on watching him till he disappeared from his sight and was astonished at his greediness. Allahs Apostle did not get up till the last coin was distributed.3Narrated Anas: I found the Prophet in the mosque along with some people. He said to me, Did Abu Talha send you? I said, Yes. He said, For a meal? I said, Yes. Then he said to his companions, Get up. They set out and I was ahead of them.

“Tipu Sultan” (20 November 1750 – 4 May 1799) was a ruler of Mysore and well known as a scholar and poet. Tipu Sultan Mosque was built here in Calcutta (now Kolkata) by his 11th son Prince Gholam Mohammed. They were the ruler of Mysore but why his youngest son built this mosque in memory of his father, far away from Mysore here in Calcutta. There is a history behind this.Haider Ali was the father of Tipu Sultan and when the Vijaynagar Kingdom was dissolute, the kings of Yadava dynasty constituted the state of Mysore. During that time Haider Ali was appointed as Foujdar of Mysore. During that time, Haider Ali was a military genius and through his skills and abilities became the ruler of Mysore. After his father Tipu Sultan became ruler and six years after Tipus death, the entire family was shifted to Calcutta by the British Government. During that period the capital of Mysore Srirangapatnam was captured by British Army. Son of Tipu Sultan, Gholam Mohammed was a kid when arrived in Calcutta. He was a man of varied qualities. He was also involved in many public works and associated with a committee formed for maintenance of roadways and buildings.This building was built in 1832 by Prince Ghulam Mohammed, the youngest son of Tipu Sultan. An identical mosque, which was later built by the Waqf committee is at Tollygunge. At first, Gholam Mohammed used his power and purchased a land in the central position of Calcutta and Built this mosque in 1842, in memory of his father Tipu Sultan. A news was also published on the occasion of the purchase. This mosque is a relic of the architectural and cultural heritage of Kolkata. In early 80’s Tipu Sultan Masjid was damaged due to constructions works of Metro Railway in the Esplanade area. The move was regarded as a highly communal stand of the state govt. Nonetheless, after that, fearing backlash, a committee was formed to repair the mosque. Afterwards, the Mosque was restored with the joint effort of Tipu Sultan Shahi Masjid Protection & Welfare Committee and the Metro Railway.The Tipu Sultan Shahi Masjid Protection & Welfare Committee was founded in the late 1980s by Seraj Mubarki, Mohammad Sharfuddin, to inform people about the damage caused to the mosque by the Metro railway. This committee is headed by Sami Mubarki as its chairman.The committee was established to negotiate with the Kolkata Metro authorities to repair the damage caused by the construction underneath the building. The authorities agreed to demolish the damaged part of the mosque and rebuild it.The Tipu Sultan Shahi Masjid Protection & Welfare Committee, under the guidance of Janab Sami Mubaraki, the incumbent chairman, continues to play an active role in the daily affairs of the mosque. Committee members raised as low as INR 21,501 for the 2004 Tsunami victims as part of the Prime Ministers Tsunami fund.The committee went on a five-day hunger strike to seek the intervention of the central government when a Muslim dargah was ruined in Vadodara. The fast was later broken with an initiative by H.E. Honorable Governor Shri. Gopal Krishna Gandhi who offered glass of juice to the fasters and later condemned attacks on Hindu temples in Pakistan and the attacks on Christian missionaries in Orissa and other parts of India.The mosques Imam Noor ur Rahmaan Barkati is known for creating nuisances. He issued a fatwa against Indias prime minister Narendra Modi in support of TMC for demonetization in 2016.[3] He was implicated by the police in May 2017 after he refused to remove illegal red beacon from his vehicle and threatened to wage Jihad against India.
