Humble whisperings of a humble speck from Madinatun Nabi, the Radiant, the Beloved, the Blessed, the Protected, the Endowed, THE HUMBLE CITY of LIGHT that forever shines from the luminance of our Beloved Al-Mustafa, the best of creation, SallAllahu alaihi wasallam. Being in this luminance reduces one to a mere speck.

As Salam O Alikum My dearest Khala Noor
I have meaning to write to you fro some time now but I have found it difficult to express myself, not much of a writer. Allhamdullillah Today i thought, Im going to write to my dearest khala. Jazakallah kheyr for sharing the beautiful posts may Allah bless you and your family with his mercy and increase you my dear khala. My heart yearns to be there with our beloved Al mustafa, but Im so far from being with him due to the ill state of my heart.
My dearest Khala please pass my salams on to our beloved and pray that Allah over looks my shortcomings through his mercy and gives me the tawfiq to better myself and illmuniates my heart with the love of his habib Al Mustapha may peace and blessing be upon him. Ameen. And Inshallah that I may walk to our habib and offer him my salams at the rawda. Ameen. jazakllah Kheyr Khala (I hope you dont mind calling me calling you khala)
Please keep me and my family in your duaas and please keep in touch
Thinking of you.

As Salam O Alaikum Dearest Khala
I have been away from the world of of internet for a while as I have been having connection issues. Allhamdullillah back on line now. Wanted to give mubarak to you on the coming of the new Islamic year and wanted to ask you to please remember me in your duaa’s. Also Jumah TuL Mubarak.

wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahamatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear ‘Seeking His Illumination’,
I too seem to have been away for what seems a long cocooned time. Ameen to your Du’a of sitting in the courtyard of our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam, with the gentle fragrant breeze from his abode caressing your face! You are on my list by name
Please keep this needy speck in your Du’a.
Wassalamu alaikum
All Praise is due to Allah Azzawajal, Salutations upon His most Perfect, unique, and cream of creations, the intercessor of the Sinners, Sayyiduna Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wa Sallam, upon his family, upon his companions and the righteous servants till Doomsday.
Assalamu ‘Alaikum wa RaHmatuLLAHi Ta’ala wa Barakaatuhu wa Magfiratuhu
I’ve been scrolling n paging around this blessed blog for a long time even when I was away physically from my Nucleus (Madinatul Munawwarah) but alHamduLILLAH! I am back permanently to Sayyadatul Buldan, the city of my Beloved Habeeb Alaihi afDalus Salati wat Tasleem… I can’t find words to express my feelings for this blog!! I rather say it as Spiritual Enhancement Center where the thirsty people like me can find the taste of Kauther
This is the place where rivers of texts are overflowing; the moons of the love for Beloved Mustafa (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) are beaming; the suns of reverence for His Presence are effulgent; the stars of the light of the Faith are glittering; The gardens of Truth (Al-Haq) are swaying; The flowers of research send out fragrance; the nightingales of the Guidance are twittering! May ALLAH give you more strength and better Jaza for the divine cause you are working for 
May ALLAH bless us with the faithful and respectful life and death of Madina Munawwarah Mutahharah. Aameen
A Humble Servant of Yours!

Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Dear Erphan, Ameen thumma Ameen to you poignant Du’a and JazakumuLlahu khairan katheeran abada for your touching sentiments, that have struck chords deep in the heart, SubhanAllah, and for now knowing of your inspiring and informative site. The Madeeh is rapturous on the soul! May we all have our thirst quenched by an ever increasing devotion to our Beloved Al-Mustafa SallAllahu alaihi wasallam, Ameen
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalamu Alaikum Sister,
You are fortunate to live in the holy city of Madina close to our dear prophet muhammad sallahu alaihi wa sallam, convey our salams to our prophet sallahu alaihi wa sallam next time u visit masjidun nabawi.
Assalathu Assalamu Alaika Ya Rasoolullah
Assalathu Assalamu Alaika Ya Habibullah
Assalathu Assalamu Alaika Ya Nabiyallah
Someone i know who has made over 20 Hajj informed me tat some belongings of sallahu alaihi wa sallam and weapons of ali ibnu abi taalib raliyallahu anhu… among others were kept in Madina University and he has seen it. Know anything about it? If u can get some pics of it and post it here, we would be glad and grateful.
Jazakallahu khair for the good work on this site, its truly amazing.
Asalaamu alaikam dear khala noor,
Your blog is a source of sukoon, a place where one can dive into a pool of noor and become immersed in the pictures, stories, nasiha and love…
Mashallah how Allah t’ala guides and connects, my husband stumbled across your site over a year ago and since then we realise that many of our friends are also connected to you, how beautiful that you have a connection and touch the hearts and duas of so many all over the world, many that you may be completely unaware of…Subhanallah…
Your recent posts make us ponder death, the pictures of the janaza ‘blurred’ strike a harsh reality of the unknown which awaits, Ya Rabb we seek help in your grace ameen… The excerpt of the pearl necklace reminds us of the fact that we are merely part a story in which only Allah t’ala knows the twists and turns it will take…when we depart from this dunya our actions will be the only thing we take ‘like a necklace around our necks.’
“Oh Allah ease by it on our souls at death the agonies of the removal, the convulsions of the groaning when the soul reaches the collar bone and the Angel of Death, Allah send peace on our Prophet and on him, appears to seize it from the veils of the unseen and it shall be said ‘is there anyone to treat?’ He mixes for it from the lethal bitterness of death a cup of poisonous taste, firing from it the bow of death with the arrow of the lonliness of separation. The departure draws close to the afterlife, actions become a necklace around necks and graves are the resting abode until the appointed time of the Meeting Day.” [Extract from the Supplication for the completion of the Quran Al-Imam Zain al-Abidin Ali ibn Imam Husain]
Please keep us in your duas as you are in ours…

Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Dear ‘Dew’,
Allah Ta’ala knows who you are even if I do not!
Masha’Allah, moving sentiments you share with us, JazakiLlahu khairan. Yes, I am sure I am not aware of some of the connections weaving us together in this cyberspace web…Insha’Allah that we are blessed with sitting together on couches of brocade and sipping from goblets at the Kauthar after Allah Ta’ala folds this earth and all that it entails, Ameen. I have added ‘Dew’ to my ‘list’
Dear Brother Ahamad, forgive me for neglecting to reply to your comment. Insha’Allah if I discover any information about the items you have mentioned I will let you know. So far inquiries have not produced any results.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalam’wa’laycum may Allah (subhan’allahu’wa’tala) give you eternal happiness in this world and the next just as you have given the chance for us to have it seeing the photos of the blessed madinah. i pray that you continue with this noble work.
i have one question which i have been trying to find. do you have old and rare images of madinah? the houses of the companions, the old madinah markets from the time of the prophet? etc. i would love to see such images as i have been looking everywhere. the places where the companions had lived, worked and images of the old madinah and meccah. i would be extemely greatful if you could post them on your site or let me know. as i am reading ibn ishaq’s siratur rasullah at the moment, the images would go hand in hand with the fantastic seerah.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Dear Sheikh,
JazakumuLlahu khairan for your visit and for your encouraging words.
Being no photography as early as those blessed times then the few images that are available are impressions individuals have gleaned from the Seerah. This previous post http://almiskeenah.blogsome.com/2007/07/22/a-ramble-10-cont/ has a photo created by the resident artist, Brother Noushad, (see his brilliant photos at the link on the side bar) of the Research and Studies Centre here, http://www.al-madinah.org/madina/index.php, where they have a huge model of Madinah at the time or Rasulullah SallAllahu alaihi wasallam, as well as other information, but mostly in Arabic. In the past, prior to blogging I had access to a few other impressions of the houses of the Sahabah RadhiAllahu anhum, but they are in a different country now.
Many Shukukh when taking groups for Ziyarah advise one to look beyond what is the tangible, and allow the eyes of the heart to feel that one is back during those Mubarak times. If I come across anything I will post, Insha’Allah.
Wassalamu alaikum
thankyou for replying. I would like to clarify the misunderstanding. I did not mean pictures from the time of the prophet (saw), but any pics before the demolision period by the saud family. As most, if not all the islamic heritage were still standing. I meant from that period. Secondly, i am not a scholar! Lol. Its just my name, ‘sheikh’ – a family name sort of thing.
Kind regards.
Asalamu alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu dear sister
I was referred to your blog by a sister…may Allah Subhana wa Ta’ala bless her telling me about your blog and may Allah Subhana wa Ta’ala bless you for such a LOVELY blog, MashaAllah!
Words won’t do justice to the feelings that are aroused within when Allah’s Beloved’s name is mentioned, when the pictures of His Beloved’s city are seen…SubhanAllah!
Your pictures stirred my insides, my longing awoke…my mouth curled into a huuuuge grin.
Please pass on my salaams to His Beloved (Sallalahu ‘Alaihi Wasallam)…and please ask Allah Ta’ala to call me SOON to His House and to His Beloved’s City, InshaAllah!
Prayers
your sister
Nadia
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,

thankyou
As-salaamu’alaykum wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu my dearest sister,

If you’re up for it
Love Farhana
Assalamu alaikum Dear Sheikh, JazakumuLlahu khairan for the information and the link to your Sheikhs site and work. Masha’Allah, may Allah Ta’ala forever increase them in all that benefits others. Insha’Allah I will see if I am able to meet with some of the sisters. I will be in contact nearer the date. May Allah Ta’ala have already recorded their intention, and bless their visit, Ameen.
will attend this whimsical tag asa! Not sure why you cannot comment? Try again LOL!
Dear Sister Farhana,
Wassalamu alaikum
Asalaam Alaikum,
After reading your latest entry I quickly skimmed through your blog. Mash’Allah it has lifted my heart reminding me of my times in Madinatan’Nabi.
May Allah reward you for your efforts and grant us all the presence and shifa’a of His Most Beloved.
Wa salaam.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Dear Brother Muhammad,
May hearts be forever mindful and full of love for our Blessed Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam, and memories never be dimmed of times spent physically close to him.
Ameen to you Du’a, and grateful JazakumuLlahu for the encouragement.
Wassalamu alaikum
salam, i will be coming for umrah with my shaykh – shaykh ahmad dabbagh on the 26th of july. since you are a resident of madina can you please inform me of all the ziyarah places, i already know about uhud khandaq etc. i heard there is a museam in madinah where they have old relics or something can you pelase tell me how to get there and other places
i want to know about the less common places
much appriciated.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam…oopppss…just replied when the power was cut!
Alhudmulillah for the invite to perform Umrah, and especially so to be in the company of your Sheikh, Masha’Allah!
I have emailed you. But also, Insha’Allah if you familiarize yourself with the ‘virtual tour’ category, with the Ahadith and stories relevant to the various locations, this should be a good foundation. Also the ‘ziyaratun nabi’ category deals more with the area around the Sacred Hujrah.
I am still very much a student on a journey of discovery, with so much more to learn of our Mubarak heritage, so what I can offer is scant compared to the ocean of knowledge there is.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalaamu alaikum,
Pray you are in the best of health and imaan insha’Allah.
Insha’Allah i will be going on umra in august and would love to meet with you!
Please can you email me with your contact details?
Look forward to hearing from you soon
Wassalaam

I came across you beautiful and inspiring blog more than 2 years ago. I became an ardent follower of your blog since then and also passed it on to all my brothers and sisters. Each post is loaded with such beneficial knowledge and I find so much peace and happiness everytime I read it.
This is the first time I am writing to any blogger. I took the courage to do so now as I need the duas of all my brothers and sisters in Islam for my dearest mother who passed away on 26 rajab. May Allah Subhana wa ta’ala bless her with Jannat al Firdaus. ameen summameen.
Please dearest sister convey our salaam to our most beloved Prophet sallahu alaihi wassalam.

You are indeed a very fortunate individual to reside in a place Allah SWT destined for His Beloved Sallallahu AlayhiSalam to live and be buried. May Allah reward to for sharing with us the pictures taken and your words written in Madinah Sharif.
I have a humble request from you and i hope you will accept. Firstly please convey my, my parents and family, friends Salams, to Habibullah Sallallahu AlayhiSalam as regular as you can remember. Secondly i am greatly in need of a Shaykh and am in search of one, please make Dua for me from the illuminated city, as often and as regular as you can remember.
Usman
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuu,
Dear Brother Usman,
Indeed the blessing of being a neighbour to our Beloved Rasul SallAllahu alaihi wasallam is one of the magnificent Ni’amahs Allah Ta’ala bestows upon us. It also comes with a huge responsibility which does feel overwhelming. May we all pass the one and only final exam with results that gain Allah Ta’ala’s pleasure, Ameen.
I have added you and yours to the ‘list’.
May the love you have for Al-Mustafa SallAllahu alaihi wasallam be the means that guides you to the decisions you need to make, Insha’Allah’

Jazakallah khair for sharing your blog and pictures with us…I live in Saudi Arabia too, but feel quite disconnected from a spiritual community, your blog resonates with my inner being and I just felt that it would be wonderful to meet up with you sometime when I’m blessed with such an opportunity to visit Madinatun Nabi, sallallahu alaihi wassalam…could you please send me your contact details?
May Allah t’ala bless you and your family.
Peace.
Asalaamu Aliakum Dear Beloved Sister Al Madni, Ramadhan Mubarak!
What can I say? You are amazing and your work is just out of this world. I make dua that May Allah reward you for all the hard work you have done, are doing, and will inshallah do in the future.
I came across your beautiful blog on the blogsome website a few months back while searching for anything that would quench my thirst for information, in form of litrature but especially visual, of the most beautiful place in the world, Al Madina Al Munawwarah. Just the site of the Blessed dome sends shocks down my body. Absolutly awsome. I have gone through all the wonderful and beautifully presented blogs and have just discovered that you have moved here, so alot of catching up to do.
Alhamdolilla, the Light of the Universe, the most praised in the world, our Aqa-o- Maula (May Allah’s peace and blessings be upon them) have called me to Madina very soon. Inshallah I will be leaving for the blessed journey this coming thursday 1st of September and inshallah will be in Madina Shareef on 18th Ramadhan. Please do duas for me.
I want to make a request. Can you please post more pictures of the outer districts of Madina Shareef, where the Madni people live and Please more pictures of the numerous date palm gardens/ farms. Jazakallah
Please forward me your e-mail address.
Wasalaamu Alaikum.
Assalamu alaikum Wa Rahamatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Salwa and Bashrat,
Ameen thumma Ameen for all your Adiyah and JazamuLlahu khairan for all the sweet words of support. It is always comforting to know that some are benefiting form this humble space. Insha’Allah I will be emailing you both.
Masha’Allah for your blessing of being in the Kingdom Dear Salwa, and another Masha’Allah for your blessing of soon being here Dear Bashrat.
There are many photos of the residential areas of Madinatun Nabi and date graves dispersed throughout the blog, but Insha’Allah I will try to add more once the intense summer heat subsides a little. Unfortunately the date farms are not as numerous around Madinah as they were a few years ago. Farmers seeing more money in selling the land for real estate. Sad when one thinks how the entire city was surrounded with dense groves during the time of our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam. Maybe when you are here you can visit these places and see how things are for yourself.
Wassalamu alaikum
Bismillah
Salaam Dear Khala Noor,
I pray your well and in the best of states,
I was searching for some hi-res/high quality photos of the Prophets Dome and was directed to you. I hope you could share any such images you have inshAllah and I look forward to your email/message.
Please keep us and our loved ones in your duas
Salaam & Duas

Dear Respected Sister and Resident of the Beloved Prophet City,
May Allah bless you and grant you and your family the best of both worlds. May Allah quench your thirst direct from the blessed hands of Rasululah Sualalluhu Alaihe Wasalam at the pool of Kauthar.
I have frequently drawn inspiration from your site and will continue to do so.
We have started a website recently. The site is the result of a radio program we had the previlage of taking part in Ramadhaan. A slot dedicated to increase awareness among Muslims of the importance of Durood and inculcating sunnah in all aspects of our lives. The programs popularity encouraged us to continue something similar online and already have a subscription of over a thousand people in just a short space of time.
I also ask for your duaa for its acceptance in the sight of Allah subuhanahu wa ta ala. Any advice would also be greatly appreciated.

Its beyond description in words as inspiring it is to pay a visit to the Masjid-e-Nabawi, deep down from within, every tissue wishes to depart all the shimmers of this worldly glamor and seek to dwell for the rest of life in the blessed city of our beloved Prophet SAW/PBUH and perform each and every prayer of the remaining life in his(SAW/PBUH) masjid.
The tranquillity one feels by just being in that city cannot be described in words.
May Allah SWT grant our wish to dwell in the shadow of our beloved prophet SAW/PBUH, ameen.
Spent a small portion of last 10 days in Madinat Un Nabawi and find it so very inspiring and enlightening, that I seek for more.
This was my third visit in close to 4 decades yet the thirst is not close to quench.
Look forward to and seek Allah SWT’s grant to do so again, please remember us in your dua’s and do submit our salams at the rawdah.
Jazakallah khair for keeping in touch with the lovers of beloved prophet, at large.
Regards.
Your brother in Islam
Please ignore the ? in the post above, as it appears the site is not capable of Arabic script, all that said was:
SubhanAllah, Walhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar
Assalamu Alaikum
Assalamu alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Apologies for this lengthy delay.
Dear Brother Saifullah,
May Allah Ta’ala bless your endeavour with Tawfiq, Ameen. You have shared some of the best Nasheeds, Masha’Allah, and I love the sentiments expressed in the poetry.
Dear Brother Akber,
Alhumdulillah that you were among the blessed throng to be in this Radiant City, and for your frequent visits, Masha’Allah! May Allah Ta’ala continue to bring you back again and again, Ameen. Even living here the thirst is never quenched, and probably will never be until we are at the Kawthar with our Beloved SallAllahu alaihi wasallam, drinking from his hand! Ameen Ameen Ameen! The body shivers at such a thought. May we all be granted this by the grace and mercy of Allah Ta’ala, Ameen.
Insha’Allah, one of these times I am led to the knowledge of how to get the comments to recognize Arabic font. I am sure it is so easy for all the clever ones out there
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalamu Aleikkum,
May Allah continue to bless you and family to live and die in Madinah Ameen Ya Rabb.
Jazakkallahu Khair for this wonderful site.
I have a request, there is defenitely a reason/means for yourself and family being bestowed with this blessing of living in Al Madina and May I ask you the same.
Would request your dua for self and family (parents, siblings, wife, children, ustaad, extended family and all muslims) to have the fortune to live and die as good muslims and to live and die in either of the Harams and their immediate vicinity. I would request your dua in Rauda.
Jazakkallahu Khair
Salams sister, Am moving to the Hejaz next week and would like to get to know other western traditional sisters in the Haramain, particularly in Makkah Mukarramah. Can you please email me?
M
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Brother Shamim, Ameen thumma Ameen to your Du’a and kind expressions. I have added your name and requests to the ‘list’. May blessings flood your hearts and lives. Indeed being here is a gift beyond comprehension, but it also comes with sacrifices and responsibilities, which makes one shudder re the consequences of lapse and lack of Adab and accumulation of sins…all very scary, and who knows when the earth shakes this Mubarak City and the hypocrites are expelled if one will be among that wretched lot, Ya Rabb, Ya Lateef, Ya Wadud. Have mercy upon us all and save us, Ameen.
Masha’Allah Umm Muhammad!! Wonderful news! Insha’Allah an email following ASA. Keep us in your Du’a.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalamualikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Sister in Islam, could you please send me your email address please, if you don’t mind.

Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Brother Mohamad,
Several have asked for this very same request recently, and how I dislike not being able to comply, but truly at the moment I am saturated with a huge backlog of correspondence that overwhelms me and until I can clear this and then manage emailing more responsibly I am cautious to share my email. However if what you require is URGENT and/or will not take too much time do say so, and please forgive me. I began the blog to reach many at the same time, but it also has created numerous contacts that I am sadly unable to honour.
Wassalamu alaikum
Dear Sister,
I may not be as fluent in response as the others, and I have never posted a comment. I stumbled on your site while doing a search for my 11yr old son’s school project. It is …well truly…mashallah …very thoughtful, insightful and your passion for our beloved Prophet sallalahu alaihi wasallam and Islam depicted in your photographs.
I wanted to share my appreciation for your work.
Jazakallah
Assalamu alaikum Dear Afshan,
JazakumuLlahu khaira for your touching comments, and for stumbling here:) Insha’Allah your son was able to find what he needed. It seems we could be ‘neighbours’ within the Kingdom?
Assalamu Alaykum,
My question maybe a little out of order, if so, I apologies in advance.
I just wanted to know are you by any chance a Mureed of Sheikh Nuh Keller of Jordan?
Please keep me in your duas, as I am most in need of them.
Assalamu alaykum
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
No I am not a mureed of the esteemed Sheikh Nuh Ha Mim Keller, but am very much a fan of his teachings, his lineage and his gentle demeanour, Masha’Allah. May Allah Ta’ala raise him with His chosen ones and protect his secrets, Ameen. I would dearly love to travel to Jordan and attend some of his sessions, being almost ‘neighbours’ Insha’Allah.
Dear ‘Curious,’
you remain on the ‘list’ from a previous comment

Dear Sister Ghareebah,
Ameen thumma Ameen to your admirable desires, may Allah Ta’ala fulfill them for you and your family. I have added your sentiments to the ‘list’.
I apologize for not being able to reply sooner, having been to Makkah al-Mukarramah, especially reading that you were to be in Madinatun Nabi last Juma’ah. Do you mean a Saudi guide by ‘indigenous’? Let me know if you are still here/when you are here and I will try to assist as best I can, Insha’Allah.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalaamualaikum Wr wb
Dear sis,
I think a question on my mind right now is : “Are you married?”.
If your answer is yes, I believe your husband and children are blessed to have you within their armslength.
If your answer is no, I pray to Allah Almighty that someday a man who will be your guide in this world and the Hereafter, and be your Qurratu ‘Ain and vice versa, will be blessed to you and you be blessed for him … amin Allahumma Amin..
Your sis in islam,
Noor

Assalamu alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Aye Aasiq-e-Rasool Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam please accept my salams, May Allah subhanawah ta’ala always bestow upon you & your family with great health and Healthy Imaan.
By the grace of Allah subhanawah ta’ala i was directed to your website sometime back and since then i have visited all of your great learning post i.e from your old link(blogsome) to your latest Mubarak service offerings. When ever i am free either i am sinked in your post or in search of book which talks of Love Allah and His Rasool Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam or i am at my home like website i.e http://ashraf786.proboards.com/index.cgi just to learn something good or to share something good which i am capable of.
As the Mubarak words uttered by Habeeb-e-paak Hazrath Sayyidna Mohammad Mustafa Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam so blessed i find your insight for the things i.e
Habeeb-e-paak Hazrath Sayyidna Mohammad Mustafa Sallallahi alayhi wa sallam said: Give your eyes a share of your divine service. They(Sahaba-e-karam Radhwanullahi ta’ala ajmaeen) asked: O prophet Sallallahi alayhu wa sallam of god, what is the share of eyes in divine service: He Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: To look towards the Quran shareef to ponder over it, to seek advice and to take lessons from its wonderful matters.
Starting from the Beautiful Ray of Light from every direction to sophisticated touch of new born and many more such things experiencing in the lines of Sunnah and Quran -e- paak is simply a greatest blessing upon you.
I love the fact that you always run for the every glimpse of Madinah Munawwarah and so making it eternal memory for the life, i wish i had been such who is always in Zikr, Fikr, Yaad and Immense Shukr for Allah subhanawah ta’ala and His Rasool Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Please keep My Family, My forum members and me in all your supplications.
I will be really really glad if i can have your presence over the forum everyday and i’ll be double happy to read ur post twice i.e here and there. I assure you that it is one of the blessed forum …come there you will meet some great Ghulame-Mustafa Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
So awaiting for you didi…hope i can call
Regards,
Your Brother
Walaikum assalam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu.
It had to be the first thing to do …so sorry…i.e Please sent zillions of Durood-o-salam upon Allah subhanawah ta’ala’s Most Beloved Habeeb-e-paak Hazrath Sayyidna Mohammad Mustafa Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and pray that we(me and Family) soon be blessed with an Most Honorable opportunity of Doing Ziyarah of Habeeb-e-paak Hazrath Sayyidna Mohammad Mustafa Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and if Allah subhanawah ta’ala wills then spend rest of our lifes there by doing His service and to all His beloved.
Duao me yaad.
Assalamu alaikum Dear ‘Dust of Thy Mubarak Feet’, Insha’Allah your prayers will soon be answered, and as much as the heart would love to offer ‘zillions’ of Durood, I doubt my capabilities, unless of course I offer this with the intention of it being accepted by the zillions

I visited your site, while the cranky connection allowed, and Insha’Allah will do so again when more time. Masha’Allah, a treasure full of delights and gems! I do not seem to have the time to devote to many online sites, I am being frank and realistic, but if you want to link to the blog then Alhumdulillah.

Eid-ul-Momineen Mubarak to One and All!
How are you all? So mubarak day is back again and the one who are immerse in True Love are literally in praise of His subhanawah ta’ala’s Mercy and same we shall all do till the Last Breath, Inshallah!
3 days to go
Merciful Warmth has started to enter the city of lovers and so is reflected in the surroundings. The month of Safar has shown the blossoming on respective plants with they beautiful flowers and so soon those flowers along with leaves will soon fall over their respective places to welcome the Month of Rabbi-ul-Noor as it gets the greatest joy of “Jashn-e-Aamad-e-Rasool sallallahu alayhi wa sallam” wahhh Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala ke ye makhlook kya khoob jante hain…. Sarkar-e-do alam Habeeb-e-paak Hazrath Sayyidna Mohammad Mustafa Salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa Sallam ki khabar mili ke nahi apne aapko Raho me becha diya…Subhan’Allah! Subhan’Allah! Subhan’Allah!, Rabi al Awwal the Month gets the Greatest Joy in the hearts of the Ashiq-e-Rasool Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and so such joy you can see in the plants. This is the exact time were all the leaves of the plants & trees go dry and branches of trees gently leave they older dry leaves and dress up with freshness of they newborn and gently move to pass the fresh air which seems like they fable the coming of His subhanawah ta’ala’s Noor sallallahu alayhi wa sallam with endless Mercy and Happiness and so the term spring arrives. This happens every year, plants are seen new, fresh and lovely starting in this season till the beginning of Rabi Al Akhir which can be understood by true lovers that everything is bestowed with a mercy is compulsory to express gratefulness to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala.This is commendable.
Khair, Jis ke dil ka darwazah Khullah Hain Allah subhanawah ta’ala ke Fazl-o-karam se osi ke Dil ke Sheher me Dakhil hota hain Aisa Behtareen jashn-e-zikr, jashn-e-shukr, jashn-e-Fikr aur jashn-e-yaad ka.
Soon we shall see such joyful threads from all in the forum….am i right guys ??? or ::)(dondte reh jaoge) ….no matter we’ll continue on this as the Greatest Joy is soon to arrive.
Jazakallahu khair!
Assalamu alaikum, yes, Alhumdulillah, a jubilant time of anticipation

Wassalamu alaikum
Salams,
Could you please email at the address given with this post.
Jzks.
Assalamu ‘Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,
Hope this finds you in good health. Im Going to Makkah for UMRAH Insha’Allah n will be there for 8 to 9 days. I heard from someone that you took them to the cave of Uhad when they visited Madina and also other ziarats. I was really inspired and now as il be visiting madina for a day or two I would be really grateful if you could assist me with it. I know you wont be able to take me along as I am your Naamehram but if you can arrange for someone who can take me. And specially if i can visit the cave of Uhad. Im coming for the first time and its my desire to visit all the important ziarats. looking forward to your reply.
Hope you will get back to me as soon as possible on my email address.
JazaakAllah
Assalamu alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Insha’Allah I will soonish… however I am a little hesitant to give my email out, as to be honest with you, I constantly have a huge backlog of correspondence and the thought of adding to that task is ‘scary’
Sabr.
Dear Ghaznavi, Insha’Allah something can be arranged…when will you be here? Seems a day or two is extremely short to be trying to fit in many Ziyarahs in between Salat in Masjid Nabawi. Do visit the ‘virtual tour’ category as some pre-trip study and familiarize yourself with the maps posted there, by accessing these previous posts via http://almiskeenah.blogsome.com/
Insha’Allah once you say when you will be here I can supply further details, noting the above comment re private emails
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalamu ‘Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,
Dear almiskeenah,
Hope this finds you in good health. Im ghaznavi’s fiance’ and writing to you on his behalf. Masha’Allah he reached Saudia yesterday and has performed his first Umrah. He told me to keep a check on his mails and i conveyed your message to him. I got to know about you through my sister’s teacher and friend Amna Ilahi, who went with you and visited the cave of Uhad. I know a day or 2 is very less but he is with a group. He wants to spend most of his time in Masjid e Nabwi but also wants a short trip to Ziarahs n since ive told him about that cave he really wants to visit it:)..I hope thats possible:)…Please if u dont mind can you give your Cell number so that he can contact you directly and sort something out with you:)…He will most probably leave for Madina on 10th, will stay there on 11th n will leave on the 12th afternoon. This is not confimed yet and thats why i want him to be in contact with you directly if its convenient for you:)
I will be very grateful:)
If you email me your Number please email it on the mentioned email address
JazaakAllah:)
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Masha’Allah, and Umrah Mabruk!
I understand one’s desire to follow in the footsteps of our Blessed Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam, but this is such short notice with an incredibly busy time for me in the next few weeks, coupled with a very limited time brother Syed is here. Insha’Allah I will email so you can give me his cell number and I will endeavour to try and arrange something.

And no sis, by ‘indigenous’ guide i mean anyone from the blessed city who really knows the places well, like Jabl ul Uhud, Bi’r Uthmaan (radiAllah), the trenches, so on & so forth.

Masha’Allah Dear Brother Muhib and wife for your invitation. Insha’Allah you take a little time to familiarize yourselves with the ‘virtual tour’ and Ziyaratun Nabi categories for Ziyarah information, and be prepared for ‘summer’ temperatures
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Brother Syed. I edited your post as the content has no relevance to the focus of this blog.
Wassalamu alaikum
salam, recently there is a new zawiyah opened. of tareeqah muhammadiyah in madinah al munawara. its near the masjid bilal, called darul muhammadiyah. try and visit it and let us know anything about it. as far as i can remember this is the first ihsan/tasawuff/tazkiyah center in the haram sharif, if im not mistaken.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Brother Abdul,
Alhumdulillah, I was told of this Mubarak news. Insha’Allah if the exact location can be passed on to make it easy to find. There are many established zawiyahs in our Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam’s City, representing various Tariqahs. Some having been here for decades, with so many living here who follow these various Tariqahs.
Wassalamu alaikum

Assalaamu Alaykum,
MashaAllah, probably the best blog out there!!! It would be nice if you could mention something about the Shaykhs who are residing in Al Madinah Al Munawarah, for people like me who are cut off from these great men of Allah (azzawajal).
Keep up the good work!
Wassalaam
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
jazakumuLlahu khaira for your enthusiastic appraisal….ummmm not sure about that, though did get a highly commended badge from the Brass Crescent Awards…which I still have not put on the side bar oooppppsss…and yes, I need encouragement these scorching and busy days!
I too would like to be incorporating gems from the Shukukh here, but not being a male nor having enough Arabic limits the possibility. Plus one needs to realize the ‘direction’ that most scholars here take. I personally find that many who make regular visits from other countries are inspiring and instill a great love, and respect for our Blessed and Noble Resident SallAllahu alaihi wasallam. Apologies…maybe one day more can be offered.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalaamu Alaykum again,
Could you do dua for me, as I have important exams to take this week. JazakAllah Khair!

I feel blessed to have met you and inshallah will keep in touch.

Have been meaning to email, but life continues to be so hectic…Insha’Allah upon my return after this next visit I am about to go out to I will contact you.
Much love and hugs,

I have recently discovered your fabulous site on the Nabi sallal-allah-o-alehu-wasallam. On your article dated November 9, 2008 titled:”Dome of Peace [Ziyaratun Nabi]” for the first time in my life I read about how’s inside the enclosed area of the holy tomb of our rasul(sas). As an architecture student I was very delighted from the diagrams, I mean the 2 cross-sections of the holy dome chamber, I am very eager to know your source of these diagrams so I could use them in one of my presentations on the holy Nabawi mosque.
waiting for your answer

Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Dear Akh Muhammad,
apologies for the delayed reply…life has been far too hectic for this aging grannie!! The diagrams are from a book by Dr Hatim Ta Ha called Al Kawkabu Al Duriyu…it is in Arabic. I am not sure if it is available online, it is in all the shops around Haramain. You could make inquiries at this email Insha’Allah rwshan@yahoo.com

Asalaamu alaikum Ukhti,
I’m a producer with Leechon Films. I’ve recently finished up a short film with a friend of mine that’s meant to be a reminder and inspiration for Muslims all around.
It’d be an honor if you’d review it on your blog with your comments and feedback.
I figured since your blog has a Muslim lifestyle theme to it I felt the following would be appropriate for your blog with your style of commentary for your readers:

I just stumbled across your blogs (old and new) and have thoroughly enjoyed looking at them, especially the pictures and the accounts and diagrams of the grave of Rasulullah (sall-Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam). I had the honour of performing Hajj this last year, and also visited Madinah (I visited an Islamic museum there too, where they had some fascinating info on al-Masjid al-Nabawi). You are so blessed to have the opportunity to live there, ma sha Allah! Jazaki Allahu khayran for sharing with the rest of us on your blog.
With best wishes

Dear Brother Belal, apologies for this unacceptable delay…I did see your impressive clip! Insha’Allah I will refer to it asap…I have a VERY full draft section I am slowly trying address and post.
Always nice to have people ‘stumble’ upon this space…welcome and JazakiLlahu khaira for your regular and chatty comments
Masha’Allah Dear Um Ismail!!! Had a quick visit to your new blog! So happy for another voice from this Radiant City has joined the blogosphere. Insha’Allah I will email with the suggestion of meeting with other sisters who post from here.

Assalamualaikum Ukhti
I just stumbled across your site and want to express gratitude from the bottom of my heart for having alighted my heart with newfound love for Madinah and all that it contains. Please pray for this needy one as the last time I was in the holy cities was when I was about four. The need to refresh myself spiritually is great. And the desire to be in close proximity to our beloved Rasulullah (S) is even greater. Please please please convey my salam to him, which I hope Allah will put somehow in your heart because I know the list of people requesting you to convey their salams must be long and filled with people more pious than I can ever be. And please, can you remember to make du’a that this needy one will till the last moment be victorious in following each and every sunnah and will always always always love Rasulullah (S), so much so that this love will allow for her to be with him on the Day of Judgment.
JazakAllah Sister
I already feel great love for you as a resident of Madinah. InshAllah I pray that just as Allah azza wa jal has allowed you to be in close proximity to Rasulullah (S), that He allow you to be in even closer proximity to Rasulullah (S) on the Day of Judgment.

Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dearest Ukht Aisha,
SubhanAllah, such a stirring comment sharing your soul felt thoughts, JazakiLlahu khaira and Ameen thumma Ameen. May Allah Ta’ala grant you your every desire and we be blessed to meet in His Garden, if not before, when you may be returned to this City of Radiance just as you were here when your were four! Masha’Allah. Do you remember anything from then? Your name is added to the ‘list’
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalamualaikum
I literally jumped with joy when I saw that my name was added to “the list”. Alhamdulillahi rabbil a’alamin.
I don’t remember anything from Madinah. But I do remember the great house of Allah and how it created a lasting impression on me. I remember praying in front of it. Aaah I need to come back there! InshAllah if not able to meet in this lifetime, may Allah allow us to meet in His garden indeed. I look forward to getting to know you there!
You’re my friend now, okay? So you have to make du’a that I complete my hifz (which I’m currently doing alhamdulillah) with ease and become a member of the household of Allah. Oh yes, and one more request. My teacher wanted to be added to “the list” as well. Her name is Qurat ul Ayn. So if you can please add her name, I’d be greatly obliged.
I found this nasheed and I absolutely love it. The lyrics are amazing. Thought I’d share it with you:
Beloved Nabi by Talib al-Habib
chorus
Salla Allahu `ala Ta Ha
Allahuma salli `ala nabiyyina habibina
Beloved Nabi, my heart yearns to see
The laughter that dances in your eyes.
Heavy lay the burden of my grief
Until you came and gave me strength again
Beloved Nabi
Silently, the thought of you appears
Your love is like the touch of spring to me
And joyfully, my blossom-soul awakes
To remembrance that brings tranquillity
Beloved Nabi
Cord of moonlight, sunlight entwined
Cord of love, our lovesbond eternal.
Fire of yearning, light of hope
Cord of faith that binds me to you.
Light of my eyes, fragrance of my soul
I send my love on angel wings to you
Hear its cry, borne upon the wind
Calling you to lead me through the night
Beloved Nabi
So fear not, my heart, at times when you feel
Sorrowful and lonely in the cold
Soothe your pain, for through his love you’ll find
The solace and the comfort that you seek
Beloved Nabi.
Oh Allah! Send your blessings upon
Our Master Muhammad, our guide, our beloved
In every heartbeat, in every breath and sigh
Every teardrop shed
By those who yearn for the light of his beauty
Who pass days and nights seeking his company
From creation’s dawn, every moment, every hour
Until the rising of the Last Day will come
Beloved Nabi, how long will it be
Until I see the sunrise in your eyes?
(Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam)

jazakiLlahu khaira for the link, at various times I have posted links to Talib al-Habib. His voice is so soothing and lyrics sink to deep emotional spaces, Masha’Allah! Have added your respected teachers name. May Allah Ta’ala bless you all with Tawfiq while pursuing such worthy hours with His Words, Ameen.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalam-o-Alikum,
I hope you are doing well by the grace of Almighty Allah. I was going through your website and really liked it. Recently we have launched an online Quran reciter site it would be helpful if you could promote us to reduce our cost and spread the word of Islam and Quran, the sites are as follows
http://www.read-quranonline.com (main page)
http://www.read-quranonline.com/recitation-1.html (reciter page, which ever you want to link.)
And Please do write to me so I could add your site to our blogs and networking groups.
May Allah help us by showing the right path and give us strength to keep on spreading the teachings of Islam.
Thanks and Regards

Dear Faheem, Masha’Allah a worthy site. May Allah Ta’ala continue to bless all associated with this endeavour with Tawfiq, and Ameen thumma Ameen to your Du’a,
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalam Alaikum
I am a keen follower of your blog and a great fan of it! Jazaakillah khair for the enlightenment through your words and pictures. This blog is truly a treasure. InshaAllah I shall be going for umrah soon and would like to ask if you recommend any books that will help in preparing for this spiritual journey. May Allah allow us to benefit from you.
Duas
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dearest ‘Sister’,
JazakiLlahu khaira for your kind supportive words, Alhumdulillah you find benefit here. Insha’Allah keep making Du’a for this to continue
Masha’Allah for your invite, may every step be taking you closer and closer to Allah Ta’ala and His Habib SallAllahu alaihi wasallam and purify your heart and soul, Ameen.
I have not used an Umrah book as such for many years, so not really up with all that is available, however meeting many and seeing what they have used then maybe you could check the spiral bound ‘Hajj and Umrah Made Easy’…it is on a cord that you wear around your neck so is available throughout the Umrah with Du’a for each stage as well as very clear and concise diagrams. It is in this very extensive list:
http://www.islamicgoodsdirect.co.uk/index.php/cPath/1_22
These are popular ones also:
http://liwajhillah.co.uk/browse.html#EMSHPH001
For the spiritual preparation I recommend the following. It is based on Hajj but is very inspiring:
http://www.hubooks.com/Hajj/From-The-Two-Holy-Sanctuaries
And this by Arif Billah Hazrat Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Sahab Damat Barkatuhum…which you can download…is a must read, Masha’Allah:
http://www.khanqah.org/books/show/the-etiquettes-of-visiting-the-haramain-sharifain. Maybe others reading this can offer other suggestions, Insha’Allah,
Wassalamu alaikum

Insha’Allah focus your visit on strengthening your relationship with the Chosen One SallAllahu alaihi wasallam and offering every Salat in Masjid Nabawi, sitting with others fro Iftar, struggling to do Ziyarah and being in Rowdha…you will be surprised how there will little time, or energy for anything else

May be the time since your old blog to this new blossoming one i have been reading….reading ….and reading again n again. Just a quick thought always stuck in my mind……i always thought of saying it to you however i always somehow stopped……here i want to say it today i.e.
Can you please enable “share” script to each of your blog post i.e. share on Facebook or your blog or e-mail to friend, coz it not just helps us in reading good but also makes everyone of us to share good. Hope you agree with me…..in fact many of your near and dear would have suggested you the same.
Duao mein yaad.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Humble speck of Thy servants Mubarak feet Ya Allah! Excellent request…but silly me doesn’t know how to do this…I do not subscribe to FB or Twitter so maybe this is not possible? I have asked a few friends to assist this ‘not so tech savvy grannie’ so let’s see if I can add this
Wassalamu alaikum
Allhumdulillah! its really good to know that request can be considered.
May Allah subhanawah ta’ala shower his choicest blessings on all of us through the wasila mubarak of His Most Beloved Habeeb sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and also may Allah subhanawah ta’ala always bestow such tech savvy grannie’ shadows on all of us, with who we can walk miles just by listening to jewels of Makkah Mukarramah & Madinah Munawwarah, Ameen Ya Allah!
Jazakallahu Khairan Khatirah
Assalamu alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,

How can I subscribe to your blog. I have just become a huge fan and share much of your work with others.

Dear Tan…I am not emailing privately these days…I just don’t want to be spending hours sitting at the pc…apologies…in almost seven years of trying to share aspects of living in this City of Radiance I have tried my best to cover many aspects…if you have specific questions I will see if they can be addressed…but certainly not at the moment…the wave of visitors is like a tsunami at these weeks
ALHUMDULILLAH!

Dear NA… these days feel as if I am drowning in too many things ‘internet’ when all I want is to be drowning in the Barakah and Nur of this Illuminating City…I am really trying to make the comment section the means of contact…I have added you to the ‘list’…Allah Ta’ala will know what it is you want, may He facilitate that, Insha’Allah. Apologies, but my commitments of late are enormous, Alhumdulillah, and feel somewhat overwhelmed adding yet another email contact.
Wassalamu alaikum
Al-salamu `alaykum wa rahmatu Llahi wa barakatuh.
Jazakumu Llahu khayran for your website. When I was researching things about Madinat al-Nabiyy, salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam, on the net, I kept finding your site, Allah preserve you. How wonderful!
May the Prophet, salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam, testify to your being among those that love him and long for him. Salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam.
On a different note, a quick question: I came across a Sheikh Amudi (of Bakri lineage, radiya Llahu `anh). Do you know anything about him? He’s of Hadrami origin and seems to be well-known and loved in Madinah, ma sha’a Llah.
Jazakumu Llahu khayra.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Brother Mostafa,
JazakumuLlahu khaira for your touching Du’a and words. Alhumdulillah for all the noble Shuyukh who reside in our City of Enlightenment. I habe heard of Sh Amudi, may Allah Ta’ala protect him, but I am reluctant to write anything publically unless there is permission.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalaam alaikum dear sister,
Praying you and your family are in the best of Iman and health and under the shade of Allah’s Mercy. I wanted to share with you this wonderful date shop that is located near Ramada Hotel. It’s owned by a very humble and righteous man, Shaykh Maher. His shop, Medine Hurmacisi, sells one of the freshest and most delicious Ajwa dates that I’ve ever tasted!
Shaykh Maher is a long-time resident of Madina, and usually accompanies Shaykh Hamza during the Sacred Caravan’s Umrah trip.
If you get a chance, please do go there. Here are the contact numbers: 0503302836/0500395306/0503393279
Wa salaam alaikum
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Ameen thumma Ameen for your heartfelt Du’a Dear Sister Falaq. Alhumdulillah and JazakumuLlahu khaira for sharing this information…many benefit from Shaykh Maher when they are in our Blessed City of Radiance. There are two Ramada hotels…maybe you mean the one on the southern Qibla side close by the Shariah courts? Once I know the exact location I will add it to the Ziyarah page, Insha’Allah. The other is on the northern side beyond the Al Anwar Movenpick. Insha’Allah when time permits I will visit to confirm.
Wassalamu alaikum
Assalaam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu,
Praying you and your family are in the best of Iman and health and under the shade of Allah’s Mercy. I believe it’s the one on the southern Qibla side close by the Shariah courts. It might be a bit tricky to find the shop, so I would suggest perhaps calling just to make sure of the location.
Please remember this sister in your dua

AsSalamoAlaikum Sister,
I am very much impressed by the Content of your website and the way you have been presenting it is very impactful.
It certainly helps to a person like me who is hungry for Islamic Knowledge. Your website serves a good quality content in an excellent manner.
I have been on a Search for a High Definition Image of Blue Dome of Shrine of Gaus-e-Azam Baghdad Shareef. I am looking for a big size High Resolution Image of Blue Dome (close picture / zoomed) of Shrine (Dargah) of Hazrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani RaziAllahu Ta’Ala Anhu. Can you please help me to get an Image… I will be thankful to you throughout my life. Please check this link (Blue Dome – Gumbad) http://www.aulia-e-hind.com/dargah/Intl/GausPak.htm . If you can’t help me with this then please send this email to right photographer who can give this photo to me. or direct me to relevant websites.

Dear Sheikh Waseem, JazakumuLlahu khaira for your encouraging sentiments. May all we do be accepted as benefit to the Ummah, Ameen. I can only suggest you trawl the net through various search engines for the image you are wanting as I do not know of any photographer who has posted such an image of the Blue Dome. Maybe you need to visit there yourself, Insha’Allah
May Allah Ta’ala fulfill this need in ways you have not imagined, Ameen.

Sheikh Waseem,
Alhumdulillah…may you be directed to find exactly what you are seeking, Insha’Allah. I am really trying to limit my time at this PC of late and trying to keep communication to the comments…and as you can see even that has been lax of late, so apologies for not emailing…at times it is necessary to realize one’s limitations…and this is one of those times.
Dear umme AbdurRahmaan, how I would love to meet every one that connects to our Sacred Places through this blog, but truly it is impossible…and as each year passes and the number who want to meet increases, and I get OLDER
Wassalamu alaikum

Of the location of hazart Abdullah bin Abdulmutalib ( ra) s grave , were they shifted it from bani najjar. ? Best wishes sahibzada syed zain hashmi
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Brother Syed Zain Hashmi,
Ameen thumma Ameen.
I am not aware of any photo of the inner dome of the Mubarak Hujrah and my limited knowledge is that the majority if relics were transported to safety by the Turkish at the fall of the Ottoman times, and now housed in Topkapi Palace in Istanbul…you can search for this and see details of the relics there, Insha’Allah. Also the beautiful book Sacred Trusts
http://www.thesacredtrusts.com/
details the Mubarak exhibits.
Allahu ‘Alum to the whereabouts of certain items…there seems to be many accounts that are passed around, but only Allah Knows Best. I heard from a respectful Imam just a few weeks back that the body of Abdullah ibn Abdul Muttalib was moved to jannatul Baqi from the western courtyard area when they were working on the King Fahd extensions…once again Allahu ‘Alum.
Wassalamu alaikum
‘sister’ almiskeenah
assalamualaykum sister,
I was following your blog since 2007 at your blogsome. Just now, I think it is better if I can extract some of the posting (regarding the historical place in madinah only) and translate it into my language (malay).
So, I’m asking your permission to use info & picture from your blogsome to put in my blog.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
Dear Brother Mujahid, Alhumdulillah for your long readership! I welcome others using material from this space but I do request that links back to the page you may refer to are made…this being a matter of courtesy and good Adab,

Good to see some new tabs added to the site and some changes made which is worth all time.
Just Recalled of my request, of adding/sending the post to social networking sites or maybe – can at least “e-mail it to your friend” section can be added after each posting.
I am sorry to recap this request however i believe it adds great worth to all our lifes.
Mean while Rajab Muabark to you and all in the family.
and one special request however i want to send it offline….may i know where can i send?
Walaykum’assalam wa rehmatullahi wa barakatahu.

May all seeking be rewarded with an ever increasing Ajar, Ameen. Will visit soon Insha’Allah.
Wassalamu alaikum
Salaams Sister,
I saw your posts on skyscraper city and found your website [this one] and have been truly awestruck by the content, the amazing pics and the beautiful writing to go with them.
I was wondering as to your background, as your english and the writing language being so poetic and of very high quality, makes we wonder that you must have some good high quality education, perhaps a degree in english language or literature. Where do you originate from ? Some pics under your Eid blog I think, shows a park which looks english. Just curious, that is all.
I love your posts on the simple life of the Madeenah suburbs, away from the commercialised centre, and was also struck by the Madressa where young children are taught.
I will be in the blessed city of our Beloved Prophet SAW next week sunday for 10 days, and then onto Makkah, with my wife and daughter, and your articles and pics have been a great inspiration as a prep for this visit.
May Allah bless you and reward you. Keep up the great work.
Wasaalaam.
Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
but oh so long ago in my Jahaliyyah times 
Dear Abu Arifa and family,
May Allah Ta’ala accept this humble effort from me and make us all among those who are graced with sound hearts and souls. JazakumuLlahu khaira for your exceptionally kind sentiments, but truly whatever goodness may fly from this space is nothing compared to the profound goodness and beauty of the one SallAllahu alaihi wasallam being written about.
Alhumdulillah for your upcoming visit. Yes there is a wealth of information shared over the past almost eight years, especially if you go to the ‘virtual tours’ category and make decisions as to what Zirayahs you may want to include in your stay. Though often I do emphasize the supreme bliss of remaining in and around our Beloved SallAllahu alaihi wasallam’s residence. Insha’Allah you do make the time to visit the Darul Madinah Museum too, as well as the exhibitions on the Seerah on the western side of the courtyard and the one behind Masjid Quba.
I am Australian born and yes there is an academic background in the Eng Lit and the creative arts
May your every step and breath be imbued with the Noor and Barakah of our hallowed places, Ameen
BarakAllahu fikum
Wassalamu alaikum
Dear Sister,
Jazakallahu khayrun for your reply. Alhumdolillah this will be our 7th visit, so have done the usual round of ziyarahs a few times, and I agree the tranquility and spirituality around our Beloved Prophet SAW’s masjid and abode cannot be matched elsewhere, however, this time I will be hoping to see some sites not previously visited, and the exhibitions you mention will be among those. Also the Saqeefa Bani Sadait (hope I’ve spelt that right) which I didn’t know was so close to where we will be staying i.A.
I pray Allah accepts our journey and make it a means to increasing the love in our hearts for our Beloved Prophet SAW, so we can truly live our lives on the Sunnah, and be blessed with closeness to our Prophet SAW in the hereafter.
Regarding your education etc in what you call jahaliyah, at least you are using skills gained then to inspire others on the straight path, and had you not attained those skills, we would not have gained so much. Allah works in mysterious ways.
Jazakallah for your duas as well, again, May Allah reward you. By the way I have read about this ‘list’ if it’s what I think, perhaps our family could be included on it too !
Wassalaam.
Assalamu alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu,
The intention is to add a post after tomorrows visit. Would love for you to share some of your experiences here when you have time…maybe you and your family could write a guest blog post? Insha’Allah.
Dear Abu Arifa,
Ameen thumma Ameen to you heartfelt Du’as…Masha’Allah for so many invites, Insha’Allah there are many many more.
Insha’Allah you will find Saqeefa, Banu Sa’edah, a pleasant haven where thoughts can turn to all that it means for us, reflecting on the many stories from there. I was there the other day, and Insha’Allah intend to go again tomorrow as it truly is like a small hideaway and not many seem to visit there. The thought that one day it may disappear due to the expansion is heartbreaking to say the least. There is already a drilling machine at the front fence working away. I feel there should be a planned ‘sit in’…though fear one may end up in a jail sit in the way things are here
BarakAllahu fikum
Wassalamu alaikum
