Grave and Tomb of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (The Sacred Chamber)
Contents
The Sacred Chamber
The Sacred Chamber, also referred to as the Sacred Prophetic Chamber (Arabic: الحجرة النبوية الشريفة; al hujratu n-nabawīyatu l-sharīfa) or Prophetic Compartment (Arabic: المقصورة النبوية; al-maqsūratu n-nabawīya) is located in the south-eastern section of Masjid Nabawi. The chamber is demarcated by gold and green copper and iron railing. The northern and southern sides of the chamber are 16 metres long, and its eastern and western sides are 15 metres long. The walls of this chamber were first built in 678 AH/1282 AD by al-Zahir Baybaras V and were originally three metres high and made of wood. In 886 AH/1481 CE, after the second great fire of Masjid Nabawi took place, Sultan al-Ashraf Qaitbay V replaced these walls with the railing that we see today. Part of the Rawdah is also included within this area.
The chamber has four doors. These are:
- Bab al-Tahajjud (Arabic: باب التهجد; The Door of Tahajjud) – located on the north side of the chamber, near the Mihrab of Tahajjud, which marks the spot where the Prophet ﷺ used to perform the Tahujjud prayer from time to time.
- Bab al-Tawba (Arabic: باب التوبة; The Door of Repentance) – on the south side of the chamber.
- Bab Aisha (Ara
