Public trust in Sheikh Hasina: Its reflection in the donation of Pagla Mosque

District Correnpondent

Kishoreganj’s Pagla Mosque is not just a religious place of worship—it has become a huge center of trust, faith, and spirituality for the people of Bangladesh. The huge amount of money that is received every time the donation box is opened has made this mosque the most meaningful religious institution in the country. This time, 32 bags of money were received in donations—which proves how much faith people are giving to this mosque.

But this time, a special letter has caught the attention of the countrymen. A certain person wrote in a note:

‘Sheikh Hasina will come, Bangladesh will smile. Sheikh Hasina will return to Bangladesh in the guise of a hero. Long live Bangla, long live Bangabandhu.’

This message is not just an expression of opinion—it is a symbol of faith, a hope, and the people’s immense love for a humane leader. It comes at a time when people have witnessed the tangible impact of the visionary leadership of the country’s leader, her contributions to economic development, education, health, and social security.

Under Sheikh Hasina’s leadership, Bangladesh was moving forward – from villages to cities, from mountains to plains, the touch of development was spreading everywhere. She brought new light to the lives of the common people by alleviating poverty, empowering women, increasing educational opportunities and expanding modern healthcare. And for these reasons, the common people today remember her not only as a politician, but also as a humanitarian leader.

The message on the donation box at Pagla Mosque proves that Sheikh Hasina, rising above politics, is a symbol of people’s faith, love, and prayers. This is reflected in this note on the donation box.

This trust is being expressed repeatedly, not only on paper but also in holy places like mosques—where people open their hearts to donate and leave messages of love for the country’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

It is learned that this time, after 4 months and 18 days, the donation boxes of Pagla Mosque have been opened. A group of more than four hundred people, including members of the mosque management committee, teachers and students of the madrasa and orphanage located in the mosque complex, students of the neighboring Jamia Emdadia Madrasa, and Rupali Bank officials and employees, participated in the counting of these bags of money.

Although the donation boxes are opened every three months, this time the donation box is opened after 4 months and 18 days. For this reason, two more donation boxes have been installed this time.

It is worth noting that today, Saturday, August 30, the 13 donation boxes of the mosque were opened on the morning of Saturday. Since the donation boxes were opened over a long period of time, many are speculating that the amount of donations this time may surpass all previous records. The opening of the donation boxes began at 7 am in the presence of the district administration. After opening the donation boxes, the collected money was filled in bags and taken to the second floor of the mosque.

A total of 32 sacks are needed to fill the money. There are also gold and silver ornaments and coins from different countries. There are also notes, vows, etc. from ordinary people.
