The prayer niches in mosques
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of fatwa number ( 5614 )
Q1: Was there a mihrab in the mosque in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?
A1: The Muslims have continued to build mihrabs in mosques in
the blessed centuries and those that followed; because of the general benefit to the Muslims in doing so, such as indicating the qiblah and clarifying that the place is a mosque. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
