Ziyarat of Makkah Mukarramah
Makkah Mukarramah is a very sacred and respected city for Muslims. This is the city where our beloved Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) was born, and where the first revelation was sent down.
The main holy places to visit in Makkah Mukarramah are:
- Baitullah (The Kaaba)
- Ghar-e-Hira (Cave of Hira)
- Jannat-ul-Mualla (Cemetery of the Prophet’s Family)
- Ghar-e-Thor (Cave of Thawr)
- Masjid Jinn (Mosque of the Jinn)
- Masjid Aisha (Masjid Taneem)
Baitullah (The Kaaba)
The Kaaba is also called Baitullah, which means the “House of Allah.” It is the most important place for every Ziyarat in Makkah and Madinah. Millions of Muslims perform Hajj and Umrah every year, but these pilgrimages are not complete until they walk seven rounds around the Kaaba. These seven rounds are called Tawaf. The Tawaf starts from the Hajj-e-Aswad (Black Stone) and ends when the pilgrim completes the seventh round, coming back to the Black Stone. This act is a central part of Hajj and Umrah, and it carries spiritual significance.
Ghar-e-Hira (Cave of Hira)
Ghar-e-Hira is located about 2 miles away from Makkah Mukarramah. This is the holy place where the first revelation (Wahi) was sent down to our beloved Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H).
Jannat-ul-Mualla (Cemetery of the Prophet’s Family)
This is a holy graveyard where the first wife of the Prophet (P.B.U.H), Hazrat Khadijah, and other family members of the Prophet are buried. It is located about 10 minutes away from Masjid al-Haram.
Ghar-e-Thor (Cave of Thawr)
This is the cave where our beloved Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) and his companion Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq took shelter during the time of Hijrat.
Masjid Jinn (Mosque of the Jinn)
This mosque is located near Jannat-ul-Mualla. It is the place where the Jinn listened to the Quran from our beloved Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) and accepted Islam.
Masjid Aisha (Masjid Taneem)
This mosque serves as a Miqat for those who wish to perform two Umrahs in one journey. A professional guide explains the intention (niyyah) and Sunnahs clearly.

Ziyarat of Madinah Munawwarah
Madinah Munawwarah, whose old name was Yathrib, is the second most sacred city in Islam. After Hijrat, our beloved Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) and his companions took shelter here. The blessed resting place (Roza Mubarak) of the Prophet (P.B.U.H) is also in Madinah.
The famous Ziyarat places in Madinah Munawwarah are:
- Masjid an-Nabawi
- Masjid Quba
- Jabal Uhud
- Jannat-ul-Baqi
- Masjid Qiblatain
Masjid an-Nabawi
This mosque was built by Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) himself. The Roza Mubarak of the Prophet (P.B.U.H) is also located inside this mosque. Masjid an-Nabawi is the second largest and second-most-sacred mosque in Islam. Offering prayers in Masjid an-Nabawi has many times more reward compared to other mosques.
Masjid Quba
This is the first mosque in Islam. The Prophet (P .B .U.H) said that offering two rakahs of prayer here gives the reward equal to Umrah. This mosque is located about 15 minutes away from Masjid an-Nabawi.
Jabal Uhud
The Prophet (P.B.U.H) said, “This mountain loves us, and we love it.” While climbing this mountain, special care should be taken. This is the place where an important battle in Islamic history took place.
Jannat-ul-Baqi
This is the first graveyard of Madinah. The Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) personally chose this place to be a graveyard. Making dua here has great reward and importance.
Masjid Qiblatain
This is the mosque where the Qibla (direction of prayer) for Muslims was changed during Salah. That is why this mosque is also called the Mosque of Two Qiblas.
