The Response to the Argument of the Presence of the Prophet's Grave in the Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Many Sufis mention their claim that the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is in the mosque, and yet we pray in it. So, what about the other mosques? How do we respond to them regarding this?
Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was not buried in the mosque; rather, he was buried in his house, in the house of 'A'ishah. It was outside the mosque. The chambers were outside the mosque until the mosque was expanded during the era of the Umayyads. Their ruler in Madinah was 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him). The governor ordered him to include the houses of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the mosque, so they were included. However, they are separated by walls, separated by walls, and no one can reach them. Yes.
