The Shaykh :" So the Lord of the Worlds answered his supplication *** and surrounded him with three walls
until his hopes were fulfilled by his supplication *** in honor, protection, and safeguarding "
Yes, he said:Muwatta Malik 9:93 Why? Because it is surrounded by three walls. The Prophet's chamber, the chamber of the Messenger, and I do not mean the built structure, but the original Prophet's chamber, the house, was made with three walls, three walls, and it was made triangular with a right angle behind the qiblah, so that one cannot face it directly. Can you visualize it? The chamber is triangular, not square. The angle is like this, the qiblah, the corner is like this, the wall is rectangular from the direction of the qiblah. Meaning, the one who faces it turns his back to the qiblah. But the one who wants to face the grave now, what does he face? He faces an angle, the tip of an arrow, not a straight rectangular wall. He does not face a straight wall, he faces an angle. Is that clear or not? Or should we bring chalk and draw it? In any case, now this is the qiblah. If it were like this, the walls would form an angle. The one who faces the qiblah would be facing the tip of the angle. It is not possible for him to face a straight wall. This is part of the protection of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) for the grave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Also, it is not possible to reach it now; it is not possible to reach it...
And in history, it is recorded that two men came from the East in the guise of strangers to Madinah, intending to dig up the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So they came to the king at that time, and he was shown in a dream that two men had come to Madinah in order to dig up the grave of the Prophet (may Allah's prayer and peace be upon him) and take his noble body, because the earth had not consumed his noble body. So he was terrified and got up quickly. You know, at that time there was no transportation other than on the backs of camels and ships. In any case, he came with the soldiers he had and descended upon Madinah. He prepared food, many tables, and said to his commanders, "Gather for me all the people of Madinah." So they began to gather, bringing people and bringing people, while he stood looking, because he had been shown the faces of the two men in the dream. Whenever a group came, he looked at them, but he did not see the two men until they told him that the people of Madinah had finished, that they had brought everyone in Madinah. He said, "No, that is not possible." They said, "There are only two strangers in a house around the mosque." Yes, so he said, in his heart, "Allah knows best, that is what we were seeking." So they were brought, and behold, they were exactly as he had seen in the dream. So he questioned them and investigated with them, and it turned out that they had dug a trench in the ground from the house they were in to the grave of the Prophet (may Allah's prayer and peace be upon him), but they had not yet reached it. In any case, the necessary measures were taken against them. Then he ordered that a large amount of lead be melted, a large amount of lead, and it reached the mountain, surrounding the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to protect this noble body. Then he built three walls over it. That is why Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) says:
" So the Lord of the Worlds answered his supplication *** and surrounded him with three walls
until his hopes were fulfilled by his supplication " meaning because of it " in honor, protection, and safeguarding ".
until his hopes were fulfilled by his supplication *** in honor, protection, and safeguarding "
Yes, he said:
O Allah! Do not make my grave an idol that is worshipped.
