some pix v took in madina (saudi arabia)

Assalamalaykum everybody
We are inshallah going to umrah on 28june and returning on 3rd July inshallah.We'll pray juma in Mekkah Mukarramah inshallah and spend 1 day in Madina Munavvarah inshallah.Anyone has any special duas?? or Anyone wants to send thier salam 2 Prophet Mohammad Sallallaho Alayhi Wassalam at his Mubarak Rauza (grave) in Masjid Nabvi??

Here i write about our trip to MAdinah Munavvarah in hajj and umrah both-
Masjid-e-Nabvi is BEAUTIFUL extremely heavenly BEAUTIFUL!! U marvel at its beauty.Afterall its the masjid of prophet(PBUH).He along with Sahabiya(his companions) had built it.First it was built with Date leaves, mud...Now it has so beautiful and intricate carvings in the pillars, air conditioned and all.We went to Roza-e -Aqdas ( the place where Prophet (PBUH) was buried) which was the hijra (house) of Hazrat Aisha Razi Allah taala Anha.At the roza -e Aqdas`we went to say our salam to Prophet Mohammed Salallaho Alayhi Wassallam.It's a very very emotional and heartwarming sensation.It is said that when u visit the Roza-e-Aqdas it is as if u hav visited Huzoor Aqdas Sallalaho Alayhi Wassalam in person.

In hajj-After putting everything in hotel v go to MAsjid NAbvi.The beautiful and magnificient masjid with 41 gates to enter inside. Due to hajj it is full of people.So we pray outside.If u go 1 or 2 hrs b4 namaz time then u can get space inside.Well after praying isha we cum back coz the masjid closes at around 11:30pm.And also we won't be able 2 go to the Rauza(grave of Prophet Mohammed Salallaho Alayhi Wassalam).As women have their time after fajr and from 11 to 1 pm. We wake at 2pm and take bath wear good clothes and set 2wards the holy mosque.There is a peaceful atmosphere in Madinah Munavvarah.Though there are thousands of people here but still there is a quiteness and calm preavailing over whole of madinah.The people of MAdinah are also soft natured. Its tahajjud time.Masjid is almost empty in women's section.We enter from the gate no.29 as from here the partition will be opened for women to go to the Rauza.there Bab-e-Jibril: Through this gate Hazrat Jibril, the angel, used to visit the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him). This is the gate Through which we go to Jannat-ul-Baqi'.

We occupy the space near to the partition.There are women of different nationalities to be seen.On my right hand and behind are indonesians.In front of me is a group of Nigerians.Just near them are Turkish old ladies.Some pakistanis can also be spotted.(Indian and pakistanis are less to be seen coz they come after hajj is over to MAdinah Munavvarah.) Irani women are also sitting.Thus, women of every country can be seen here. Afetr fajr every1 stands up in anticipation that the partition will be opened any time.After 1 hour of sabr the partition opens from the other end.UGHHH!!! but sabr we have 2 do in the whole hajj.well, women are rushing.U dont have 2 walk.the flow of crowd will take u.So we wait for some time then go calmly with bowed heads,tears streaming,heart beating with excitement and durood on our lips.As the Rauza draws nearer so does our excitement grows. Now the rauza is in front of us.The most paak ,most beautiful,most precious strip of land in the whole universe.Oh! what a wonderful feeling.We say our salam quitely to first Rasool aqdas salallaho alayhi wassalam the beloved prophet of Allah subhano taala.Then to HAzrat Abu BAkr Raziallah taala anhu(who is buried on one side of Rasool aqdas sallallaho alayhi wassalam).then say our salam 2 hazrat Umar raziallah talah anhu. Do duas whatever comes in mind. We want 2 go to Riyaz ul Jannnah 2 pray( the strip between the Rauza and rasool's mimbar where praying nafil holds lot of sawab).It is marked with green carpet.But going there is very difficult as there is throng of women there.So we just go and pray nafil somewhere near and do lots of dua specially for our ummah and that may Allah subahano taala accept Prophet MOhammad Salaallalaho alayhi wassalam's shifa'at for us on the day of qiyamat (judgement).Then we come back.Go back to hotel.Come again for Zuhur and then go after isha.
After every farz namaz there's a namaz of janazah (dead) also. 3 days we spend in MAdinah Munavvarah.ONe more chance we get 2 go to RAuza but going to Riyaz ul JAnnah is again very very difficult.,Also we don't do much effort 2 go as we had the chance 2 pray there in Umrah Alhamdulillah.The mimbar can be seen where Huzooor used to do imamat(heading) of namaz.But truly, we couldn't see much due to the rush of people.Then next day we again went 2 the Rauza with great difficulty,Said our salam and did lots of duas.Prayed that may Allah bring us here again and again.Then with numb heart we came back.(did one more effort 2 go to riyaz ul jannah but in vain).
Then we went to see Uhud the mountain where the famous Islamic war took plcae-Ghizva-e-Uhud.The mountain about which Prophet Huzoor Aqdas Salallaho Alayhi Wassalam said that i love this mountain.This mountain is a mountain of jannnat.
We said salam 2 shuhuda (martyrs) of Ghizwa uhud.Prayed for them that MAy Allah Subhano taala grant them the highest level of jannah.And may we also have the same spirit of sacrifice for islam.At the Battle of Uhud there were about 3000 mushrikeen who wanted to avenge the defeat of Badr and about 700 Muslims.
We also saw the mountain on which Prophet Mohammed salalllaho alayhi wassalam had put on gaurd some sahabis.And had asked them not to go move from that place.But as soon as the muslims started gaining power on kaaafir and the kaafir started running away those sahabis thought that we have gained victory and they ran down.Their leader stopped them but they said now we r victorious.As soon as the kaafir saw that place ungaurded and only a handful of sahabi there they attacked from there.This caused panic among muslims.On top of that the kaafir rumoured that Prophet Mohammed Salalllaho alayhi wassalam got shaheed.This caused great despair among the sahabis.Then Anas raziallah tala anhu called the sahabis and they then fought bravely with the kuffar. Although militarily the Battle of Uhud was not a victory for the Muslims it was also not a victory for the mushrikeen. If you look at it from another point of view the Battle was a victory for the Muslims as many lessons can be derived from it. The Battle of Uhud: Victory - Not Defeat

During hajj-there were groups of people 2 visit uhud.Turkish old men and women.A man with a bosnia flag and people of bosnia behind him.People gathered round their leaders and following them just like on the day of qiyamat when every ummat will follow its prophet.

We also saw the mountain calle Jabal-e-eer .This mountain is a mountain of Jahannum(hell).on the day of qayamat it will be thrown in jahannum.

We also went to BAdr where another famous war Badr took place in which there were about 1000 mushrikeen and about 300 Muslims and Prophet Mohammmed (SAW) prayed for the muslims victory for 3 days and his dua was accepted and now Masjid Ureesh is built at that place and we prayed there.Near the battlefield there was the mountain where farishtay(angels ) had descended to fight for the muslims.The muslims had been victorious. During our return from Badr we also visited a well called BAir-ur-Roha.(Bair is an arabic word for well).Near this well there was a masjid and 70 prophets had visited this masjid including Prophet Mohammed Salallaho Alayhi Wassalam.We took water from that well and prayed in that masjid. The Battle of Badr

We also went to mAsjid Quba the first masjid which was built after Prophet Mohammad Sallalaho Alayhi wassalam did hijrat to Madinah Munavvarah.HE laid the foundation of this masjid.Praying namaz in this masjid holds a lot of Fazeelat(reward).We prayed namaz there. [Masjid-e-Quba. It is a Mosque three miles before the boundaries of Medina. The Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him) himself participated in its construction. It is the first Mosque of Muslims in the vicinity of Madina. Offering two Raka'at of Nafl (supererogatory) prayer, here is equivalent to one Umra in reward].

We also saw the place where Sahabiya's(companions of Huzoor Aqdas Salallaho Alayhi Wassalam) had gathered to greet Prophet S.A.W(PBUH) when he came to Madinah after Hijrat.

Then we went 2 masjid qiblatain the masjid where the wahi ( the message which hazrat Jibraeel alayhissalam used 2 bring from Allah subahnotala) came that Kaabah was now made the qibla for namaz instead of MAsjid Aqsa ( in Palestine).So it is named Masjid Qiblatein.
Jannat-ul-Baqi': It is the Graveyard of Madina where the uncle of the Holy Prophet, (Peace be upon him) Hazrat Abbas, Hazrat Imam Hasan, Hazrat Uthman and thousands of other noble companions of the Holy Prophet have been interred. In addition to that, among those buried here are also the son of the Holy Prophet, Hazrat Ibrahim, Hazrat Fatima, Hazrat Halima Sa'dia and all other Ummahat-ul-Mu'minin (the Mothers of the faithful) with the exception of Hazrat Maimona as the place of her burial is Sarif. but we didn't go there only the men went there.
