In a similar attack at roughly the same time, 10 persons were killed and five others wounded when a suicide bomber struck a mosque in Khoja Gan village, Dulina district, in Ghor province, the statement said.
It noted the toll may rise as several injured people remained in critical condition.
No group has claimed responsibility yet for the attacks, but the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group has routinely claimed responsibility for such attacks.
The IS has attacked several Shiite mosques in Kabul and western Herat province since the beginning of this year.
