The Adina Mosque is a ruined mosque at Pandua in the Malda district of West Bengal, India, built by Sultan Sikandar Shah of the Bengal Sultanate and completed in the 1370s. Built of brick and stone with a vast courtyard surrounded by domed aisles, it was among the largest mosques in the Indian subcontinent. Its scale proclaimed the independence of the Ilyas Shahi sultans from Delhi.
