CRFH+XW8, Al Masjid Al Haram Rd, Al Haram, Makkah 24231, Saudi Arabia
Alhamdulillah A wonderful place for us as our beloved Prophet Muhammad PBUH had born there. But the authority should allow the visitors to see inside the library.
Makkah Al Mukarramah Library is a library near the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Since it is believed to stand on the spot where the Islamic prophet Muhammad was born, it is also known as Bayt al-Mawlid .
During my recent time in Makkah, I passed by this historic library every day. Built in 1370, it now stands near a bus station, blending history with modern life. My ustaz told me this is the very spot where Prophet Muhammad was born. Subhanallah... A simple building, but a powerful reminder of our beloved Prophet’s blessed arrival into this world.
