Dear Islamic brothers! The focal point of Prophet’s devotees, i.e. sweet Madinah, is all full of Noor. Attractive Masajid and sacred places are showering their blessings even today.

Being drenched in love and devotion, what a beautiful statement the famous Muhaddis Sheikh Abdul Haq Muhaddis-e-Dehilvi رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه made that ‘those possessing spiritual insight know that how much Nooraniyyat [luminescence] is revealed from the mountains and valleys of Makkah and Madinah. Undoubtedly! The reason behind this is that there is not even a single particle in all those places upon which the blessed gaze was not cast and that was not blessed with beholding the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.’

(Jazb-ul-Quloob, pp. 148)

In order to gain blessings, let’s briefly listen about some Masajid and honourable sacred places of Madinah-e-Munawwarah.

1. Masjid-e-Quba

An ancient village called ‘Quba’ is situated around 3 km away in the south west of Madinah-e-Munawwarah where this sacred Masjid (i.e. Masjid-e-Quba) is built. Virtues of this Masjid have been mentioned in the Holy Quran and blessed Ahadees with a great emphasis. Walking at a moderate speed, devotees of the Prophet can get to Masjid-e-Quba from Masjid-e-Nabawi in around 40 mins. The Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would go to Masjid-e-Quba every Saturday, sometimes walking and sometimes riding.

(Bukhari, vol. 1, pp. 402, Hadees 1193)

Let’s listen to two blessed sayings of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم regarding the virtues of offering Salah in Masjid-e-Quba.
