Masjid al Nabawi in daylightThe Mosque of the Prophet (Masjid al Nabawi) is the second holiest mosque, after the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca. It is the second mosque to be founded by the Prophet Muhammed (saws), the first was Masjid Al-Quba. It was originally built by the Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) and his companions and has later been extended several times by his followers.

The Mosque of the Prophet (pbuh) became his resting place after his death. The last Prophet's (pbuh) resting place is beneath the green dome. The first caliph, hadrath Abu Bakr Siddiq (ra), and the second caliph, hadrath Umar ibn Al Khattab (ra) are both also resting here. It contains a fourth grave as well, which is reserved for hadrat Isa / Jesus (as), when his time is up after his return to the earth.

The Prophet's (pbuh) lived where the dome is today after the Hijrah. The Rawdah - the area between his house and the original mihrab is a part of Jannah - paradise, according to a saying (hadith) of the Prophet (pbuh). He said: "What is between my house and my minbar is a garden from the gardens of Paradise". It is extremely crowded here - often hours before the prayer time, as it is every worshipper's desire to pray here. The area holds only a few hundered worshippers - maybe up to a thousand.

The part of the mosque which currently surrounds the green dome has been expanded several times during different times. It therefore contains architecture of different styles. The other parts are of newer extensions, and they look quite similar.

The rock inside the Dome of the RockThis picture shows the actual rock which the mosque the Dome of the Rock is build around. There is no place for prayers just beneath the dome of this mosque, as the rock surfaces the area. The structure at the left is built upon the area of the rock where the Prophet (saws) put his foot on, to climb the animal "Buraq".

Worshippers doing tawaf around the Ka'ba and praying inside the Hateem areaThe hateem is a part of the Ka'ba, the walls of the Ka'ba used to be where the walls of the Hateem is now.

The first man on earth - Prophet Adam (as) - first built the Kaaba. He (as) was told by Allah to build it "benath" Allah's throne, i.e. the throne of Allah is "above" the Kaba. However, the throne is symbolic in its nature as Allah is not a physical being that needs to rule from a throne. During time, the Kaba was destroyed and it was later re-built by the Prophets Ibrahim (as) and his son Ismail (as).

Before the time of prophet Muhammad (pbuh), pagans worshipped at Kaaba, as they used to have their idol gods within the Kaba) until prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and his followers conquested Makkah in a peaceful manner without any blood shed. Since then it has since been a place of worship for Muslims.

Muslims from all over the world face the Kaba when they pray their five daily prayers. Also, many travel to Makkah for the Umrah (lesser pilgrimage) or the Hajj (annual pilgrimage). The Hajj is compulsory on every Muslim to do once in their lifetime, if he or she have the financial and medical means for it. One of the rites of the pilgrimage is tawaf - to circumambulate the Kaba counter clock wise. One tawaf is 7 rounds, and is one of the two main rituals of the Umrah

The apartheid wallHere the wall divided a main road. It is no longer possible to drive forward, one must take a left or right turn (seeing from the photographer's perspective). People wanting to go from this side to the other side must now travel 1-2 hours. Palestinians live on both sides of the wall.


The so called "security fence", which is mostly a 9 meter tall concrete wall. The wall often seperates Palestinans from Palestinians.

Pilgrims returning to SafaAllah commanded Ibrahim (as) to take his son, Ismail (as) and Ismail's mother Hajar (ra) from Palestine to the Arid valley where the House of Adam used to be. Following Allahs command, he (as) left his wife (ra) and son (as) in the valleys of Makkah where there were no wells, population or trees. After their food and water had run out, Hajar (ra) feared for her and her baby's life. She climbed the nearast hillock, Safa, and searched for life from there. She could not find any, and rushed to another hillock, Marwa, and searched for life from there. She repeated her actions 7 times without finding anything or anyone. While standing on Marwa she heard something, but could not recognize it. When she returned to Ismail, she saw that the Archangel Jibril (Gabriel) had struck the ground with his heel, brining up water. This water is still flowing from here and is called Zamzam.

The second main rituals of the Umrah is to perform the sai. The pilgrim starts from Safa and must travel to Marwa, and repeat this action 7 times.
