The mosque is at West Raichota which is a remote coastal area almost 40 km south of Chittagong. Shaer Mohammad Para Jame Mosque was an essential demand as the single-story almost 35 years old mosque was severely affected by flood several times and lost its usability.
The mosque is surrounded by an existing two-story Koumi Madrasa and a family graveyard at the south, and another graveyard at the north and at west a pond and a typical shelter house cum primary school, which is one of the inspirations for the formal expression of the mosque. Users generally enter from the east alongside an open green space, usually used as a playfield for the Madrasa students and additional space for Eid Jamat, where there was a small pond earlier. A new large pond is introduced at the north with a ghat for taking ablution and bath. The mosque is also connected with a rear entry from the west.
