Al-Masjid al-Nabawi

Al-Masjid al - Nabawi is the second largest mosque in the world and holds the tombs of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), the first two caliphs, and Fatima, the Prophet's daughter.

Al-Masjid al-Nabawi - Morning - Umbrellas open (bottom).

In the courtyard the umbrellas open up and provide shade to worshippers.

It's breathtaking when the umbrellas unfold; it looks like a flower opening.

Front view at night.


Night - Umbrellas closed

There is a constant stream of people going to al-Nabawi; morning and night.
