Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: For the one who comes to perform 'Umrah, is it prescribed to visit the Rawdah and the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) every time I come for 'Umrah and go to al-Madinah and to the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
Visiting the Prophet's Mosque for the sake of praying in it is a required matter. Pray in whatever place is easy for you in the Prophet's Mosque; it is not obligatory in the Rawdah, it is not obligatory in the Rawdah. The entire mosque is a place for prayer. Prayer in it is worth a thousand prayers in any other mosque.
