Ramadan in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia [Part V] - Most Valuable Prayer in Madinah

Al Masjid An-Nabawi is the most well-known mosque in Madinah. There is a Green dome as the sign of grave (cemetery) of Prophet Muhammad PBUH (it's inside the mosque) that used to be His house. There are two other grave beside Prophet Muhammad PBUH's, which are Abu Bakar Ash-Shiddiq and Umar bin Khathab

The most valuable prayer would be in Rawdah. It is the space between Prophet's Minbar (a pulpit in the mosque where the imam (prayer leader) stands to deliver sermons <taken from wiki>)  to His house (now His grave). This place is still located inside Masjid An Nabawi, marked with green carpet, while the rest of the mosque has red carpet.

We believe that if we're having 2 raka'ats shalat then we pray, asking what we need or what we want, InshaAllah it will most likely to come true (compare to praying in other places). And make sure that you are praying on the green carpet. This is the most powerful place to pray, to get your wishes and dream come true. I do believe with this promise God's spoken.

So yes, I prayed. I ask what I do want that time. Spain. And others too. Alhamdulillah.


But you have to be very patient while praying here because this place is not really that large, 26x15m for million pilgrims around the world. That's why the mosque has staff to arrange people that is about to go inside (arranging number of people for one time entry, and managing the time and order). You also have limited time. Maybe limited space too. So once you step on the green carpet, start your prayer.

And because this area is located on men section, women can't enter this place anytime. But we got schedule. On Ramadhan, women get three times to get into Rawdah: after duha prayer, after Dhuhr prayer, and after Tarawih Prayer. For other than Ramadhan we got two times: after duha prayer, after Dhuhr prayer.

And because we shouldn't take any picture inside, so most of these pictures i took from other web *source below* and make sure that you come here with full of intention to pray. And follow the rule to keep quiet, don't raise your voice, keep order and be patient, and don't be selfish.
