Masjid-e-Nabawi
The Prophet's Mosque in Medina, Saudi Arabia, is the second holiest site for Muslims in the world and was the headquarters of the Prophet (peace be upon him) of Islam during his lifetime.
According to Islamic traditions, the reward of prayer performed in Masjid-e-Nabawi is a thousand times more than that of prayer performed in any other mosque except Masjid al-Haram in Makkah.
The Prophet (PBUH) of Islam built this mosque after he migrated from Mecca to the city of Yathrib at that time, Medina, and it was the second mosque to be built in Medina after the Quba Mosque.
According to Islamic traditions, the place known as “Riyadh al-Jana” or one of the gardens of Paradise is located in the same mosque. According to a hadith attributed to Abu Hurairah in Sahih Bukhari, the Prophet (PBUH) of Islam said, "Between my house and the pulpit of the Prophet's Mosque, there is a piece of the Garden of Paradise."
The more than 1400-year-old mosque has expanded beyond the boundaries of the ancient city of Madinah, and the entire area that witnessed the early days of Islam has now become a part of it.
In this area, there were thousands of signs from the early days of Islam, such as the tomb of the Prophet (PBUH), where two companions, Hazrat Abu Bakr and Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), are buried, the house of Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with him), the wife of the Prophet (PBUH) of Islam, the houses of the other wives of the Prophet (PBUH) of Islam.
1445 years ago, this mosque was built in 632 ADS on a place adjacent to the house of the Prophet (PBUH) of Islam and was expanded many times in the coming centuries.
