The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some people visit the cemetery of Uhud and the Mosque of the Two Qiblas; is this visit prescribed?
The Shaykh:
Visiting the martyrs at Uhud is recommended. Greet them with peace. But without traveling. If you come to Madinah with the intention of the Prophet’s Mosque, or if you come for one of the necessary tasks, or for trade or something else, it is recommended for you that you pray in the Prophet’s Mosque, and that you visit al-Baqi', and that you visit the graves of the martyrs. Greet them with peace and make du'a' for them. Yes.
The questioner:
And the Mosque of the Two Qiblas.
The Shaykh:
As for the Mosque of the Two Qiblas, no, it has no special merit. Naming it the Mosque of the Two Qiblas is a mistake; this is a mistake. Yes.
