New timings announced for visiting Riyazul Jannah at Masjid-i-Nabvi

Saudi Arabia has released the visiting schedule for Rawdah (Riyazul Jannah) at the Masjid-i-Nabvi in Madina for the holy month of Ramazan.

Rawdah — which in Arabic means “the garden” — refers to the sacred area located between the tomb of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and his minbar. Situated to the right of the mihrab, the site holds deep spiritual and historical importance for Muslims.

The revered space contains six pillars marking the locations where the original columns made of date palm trunks stood during the lifetime of the Prophet (PBUH). Praying in this area is widely believed by the faithful to carry immense spiritual reward.

Because of its significance, the carpeted section remains heavily crowded throughout the year. Authorities maintain strict crowd-control measures to ensure safety and smooth management of visitors.

For Ramazan, the mosque administration has revised the visiting timings. Worshippers intending to enter Rawdah are required to secure prior appointments through the Nusuk application.
