Madina - The Mosque of the Prophet - Almasjid alnabawi

The Mosque of the Prophet ( Arabic: المسجد النبوی ) , in Medina, is the second holiest mosque in Islam. It is the final resting place of Muhammad. Al-Masjid al-Haram in Mecca is the holiest mosque; the Al-Aqsa mosque compound (which includes Al-Aqsa congregation mosque and the Dome of the Rock, in Jerusalem) is the third holiest in Islam.

The original mosque was built by Muhammad. Subsequent Islamic rulers greatly expanded and decorated it. The most important feature of the site is the green dome over the center of the mosque, where the tomb of Muhammad is located. Constructed in 1817 and painted green in 1839, it is known as the Dome of the Prophet.[1] Early Muslim leaders Abu Bakr and Umar ibn al-Khattab are buried in an adjacent area in the mosque.

The edifice was originally Muhammad's house; he settled there after his Hijrah (emigration) to Medina, later building a mosque on the grounds. He himself shared in the heavy work of construction. The original mosque was an open-air building. The basic plan of the building has been adopted in the building of other mosques throughout the world.
