Battle of Khandaq: Difference between revisions

On Dhubab mountain (well-known as Jabal al-Rayah), about 1400 meters away the Northwest of [[al-Masjid al-Nabawi]] (The Prophet mosque) and 150 meters far from the North of Sal' mountain, there is a mosque which recently was renewed and repaired, so-called as Masjid al-Rayah. It is the area where the Prophet (s) supervised digging trench from, had put up his tent and said prayers.

Other mosques by the names of [[Masjid al-Fath]] (also known as Masjid al-Ahzab or Masjid al-A'la) were built on Sal' mountain around 700 meters away al-Masjid al-Nabawi, where the Prophet's tent had been put up, a place in which he said prayers, monitored everything, and received God's blessing promise of victory over the polytheists. This mosque along with some other mosques on the foot of Sal' mountain are famous as Masajid al-Fath and al-Masajid al-Sab'a (the seven mosques). In 1424/2003, a very large mosque named Masjid al-Khandaq was constructed, having some of the seven mosques inside.

Mosque of Fatimat al-Zahra (a) is one of the seven mosques. Unfortunately, it has been shut off by some cement blocks for a long time.
