Kadam Rasul Masjid - Mosque in Chandangar - Maldah, India

Kadam Rasul mosques are generic mosques built at places where Prophet Mohammed foot imprints on stone slabs were brought by the then pilgrims, Nawabs, Sultans etc and established in a religious construction. This Kadam Rasul Mosque at Gour Malda is one such, and was built by Nasrat Shah in 1530. The footprint of Prophet Mohammed is kept here. By the side of the mosque is supposed to be of Fateh Khan or Fath Khan tomb who was reportedly the son of army commander someone named Dilir Khan from Aurangzeb's period who was sent to fight with some local rulers. But Fateh Khan fell sick and is stated to have died here. The facts seem to be heavily dependant on folklore, hearsay and some sketchy history. Moreover, the internet is also not very detailed on this. However this is one of the better maintained places and at least there were 2 / 3 persons available at the spot who try to explain the background and history attached with the site. They also ask for some financial help (small amount of money as help). Maintenance and cleanliness is pretty good. Most of the writeup is based on narrations by the locals. Recommended for visit.

Gauda (also known as Gaur, Gour, gaudd', Lakhnauti, and Jannatabad) is a historic city of bengal in the eastern part of the Indain sub-continent, and one of the most prominent capitals of classical and medieval India. Gauda was one of the most prominent capitals in the history of Bengal and the history of the Indian subcontinent, and a centre of stately medieval architecture. Gauda's ruins were depicted in the artwork of European painters during the 18th and 19th centuries. Colonial officials, left detailed surveys of the former Bengali capital. The Gauda region was also a province of several pan-Indian empires. During the 7th century, the Gauda Kingdom was founded by King Shashanka, whose reign corresponds with the beginning of the Bengali calendar. Gauda became known as Lakhnauti during the Sena dynasty.Gauda gradually became synonymous with Bengal and Bengalis. It was conquered by the Delhi Sultanate in 1204. For a period of 115 years, between 1450 and 1565, Gauda was the capital of the Bengal Sultanate. In 1500, Gauda was the fifth-most populous city in the world, with a population of 200,000, as well as one of the most densely populated cities in the Indian subcontinent. Mughal Emperor Humayun invaded the region, he renamed the city Jannatabad ("heavenly city"). Most of the surviving structures in Gauda are from the period of the Bengal Sultanate. The city was sacked by Sher Shah Suri. it is now becomes a place for tourists, people arrived here in the picnic times, all then ancient structures recollects us the journey of history,, Monuments of Gour Gour is a feast for history lovers lots of monuments within proximity.

Dakhil Darwaza is a regal gateway which opens into the ruins of a 15th-century castle.

A building directly opposite the entrance to Qadam Rasul mosque is currently assumed to be a bath, though I found no evidence of a bath or comparable enclosure for water. The floor was perfectly smooth. There's also no prospect of this being a "wazu khana," where the pious do their ritual ablutions before prayer. Fateh Khan's tomb is located next to the bath. Fateh Khan was Aurangzeb's General Diler Khan's younger son. Aurangzeb had sent Diler Khan to capture his younger brother Shah Shuja, who was the governor of Bengal at the time. However, legend has it that as soon as Diler Khan reached the city limits of Gauda, Fateh Khan vomited blood and died.

It is a mosque with a tomb of Fateh Khan situated opposite of Chika Masjid. Mosque is developed in the line of terracotta architecture.

It's claimed to have footprint of Prophet Muhammad (swt, peace be upon him) in a stone but it seems to be doubtful.

Qadam-e-Rasul (English: Footprint of the Messenger) is a type of veneration of Muhammad. It comes from the belief started early in Islam that when Muhammad stepped on a rock his footprint left an imprint. This belief was never accepted by orthodox brands of Islam, however, the idea was disseminated widely and led to the creation of many shrines around such imprints.
