	'''Fathabad''' identified with the modern town of Faridpur, is situated on the bank of an old channel of the Padma (called ''~~mar''''a'' ''Padm''''a~~ ''or dead river), about twenty miles away from Goalanda steamer ''~~gh''''a''''t~~ ''(station). The town first emerged as a mint-town during the reign of Sultan [[jalaluddin muhammad shah]] (1415-1433). It continued its status as a mint-town throughout the period of the Independent Sultans (up to 1538) with a short interval during the reigns of [[ruknuddin barbak shah]] (1459-1474) and his son [[shamsuddin yusuf shah]] (1474-1481). The ''[[ain-i-akbari]]'' mentioned it as ''~~H''''a''''weli~~ Mahal ~~Fath''''a''''b''''a''''d~~''. It has also been mentioned as ''~~Fati''''a''''b''''a''''s~~'' in the Dutch-Portuguese maps of De Barros and Blaiv drawn in the sixteenth century. Van den Brouck put it wrongly as ''Fathur''. The earliest reference to Fathabad in Bengali literature is seen in ''[[laily-majnu]] ''(1560-1575) of Daulat Wazir Bahram Khan. Later on, Fathabad was renamed Faridpur after Shah Fariduddin Masud, a renowned saint and a disciple of Muinuddin Chisti (1142-1236) of Ajmeer, who established his seat in this town.
