Masjid Al Qiblatayn

Reviewed By gulzucker - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

One more the historically important mosque in the Islamic world. Masjid Al Qiblatayn is the oldest and beautiful mosque in Madinah, Mosque of the two Qibla's. After Prophet Mohammed had received the command to change the Qiblah, the direction had been changed from Al Aksa mosque to Holy Kaaba in Mecca. Must visit place and pray two rekat salla.

Masjid Quba

Reviewed By BATKOO - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

When Prophet Muhammad (Peace & Blessings be upon him) migrated from Makkah to Madinah , Quba is the place on the outskirts of Madinah where the Prophet (Peace & blessings be upon him), accompanied by Sayedina Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived and first stayed and built the first Masjid of Islam.My first visit to this historical Masjid was in 1982.It was small but had its own reverence and awe.In my recent visit in February 2019,I found a new Masjid has been constructed which is much bigger than the original one and is reasonably impressive.An authentic Hadith states that who ever offers two rakahs of voluntary prayers in this Masjid, he gets a reward equal to one Umrah.I was lucky enough this time that I not only offered many voluntary prayers but got the privilege of offering Duhr in congelation.The Masjid was almost full including its court yard.The expansion is impressive but wash rooms are very substandard and very poorly maintained.They need to be upgraded and maintained properly.It also needs a proper eating place to be provided to enable pilgrims spend more time in this Historical Place.

Masjid Al Ghamamah

Reviewed By AFAK25 - Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Historical sites in Medina, Masjid Al Ghamamah and Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar are located near to each other. Sometimes people confuse the two. To differentiate them, Masjid Al Ghamamah has many domes while Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar is much smaller and has only one dome. The area is located southwest of the Prophet's Mosque and a short walk away from the Holy Quran exhibition. The area surrounding the two masjids has been into a park with benches. Good for picnicking with family.

Abu Bakar Masjed

Reviewed By AFAK25 - Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Historical sites in Medina, Masjid Al Ghamamah and Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar are located near to each other. Sometimes people confuse the two. To differentiate them, Masjid Al Ghamamah has many domes while Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar is much smaller and has only one dome. Unfortunately it is not known if the mosque is ever open for public. Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar was built on the site that used to be his house. The area is located southwest of the Prophet's Mosque and a short walk away from the Holy Quran exhibition. The area surrounding the two masjids has been into a park with benches. Good for picnicking with family.
