Masjid Shajarah. Not to be confused with
the Masjid Shajarah in Madina (Miqat), this is where the Prophet
[s] camped when he was stopped by the Meccan leaders from performing
Hajj. Thereafter the Treaty of Hudaybiya was signed. This mosque
is a little further to the left of Masjid Hudaybiya when coming
from Masjid al-Haram

Masjid Salman. Entrance is behind. Up on
top left is Masjid Fath. Behind the photographer is Masjid Umar,
Masjid Ali [a] and Masjid Fatima [a]

The underground car park (built by the
Saudi govt.) seen here is where the valley (shi'b) of Abu Talib
was. In the early days of Islam, the Prophet [s] with his family
and followers were isolated here by the Quraysh. To the left of
this is the birth place of the Prophet [s] and behind the photographer
are the gates to Safa-Marwa (Masjid al-Haram) |
Masjid Sulayman [a]. By the permission of Allah,
Nabi Sulayman [a] had control over the jinn. It is believed he
had imprisoned some jinn in a cellar below this mosque. This mosque
faces the gate of Jannat al-Mualla.

Inside Jannat al-Mualla. Behind the white wall
where you see people standing is where the Prophet's [s] family
members are buried i.e. Abu Talib [a], Abdul Muttalib [a], Sayyida
Khadija [a], etc. Looking through the grilled windows on the wall,
one can see a white rectangle on the ground (partially visible
in the 2nd pic). This is the grave of Ummul Mu'mineen Sayyida
Khadija [a], the wife of the Prophet [s] and mother of Sayyida
Fatima az-Zahra [a]
