Al Ghamama 清真寺 - 麦地那

Masjid Ghamama, also known as the Mosque of Clouds, holds historical significance in Madinah. It is located near the site of the Battle of Uhud and is associated with a unique event during the time of Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam. The mosque gained its name from an incident where the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam led a special prayer seeking divine intervention for rainfall. As the congregation prayed, a thick cloud (ghamama in Arabic) appeared, bringing much-needed rain to the arid region. This event is a testament to the Prophet's supplication being answered and is considered a miraculous occurrence. Masjid Ghamama stands as a symbol of the Prophet's connection with nature and his role as a supplicant for the community's well-being. The mosque's historical roots and the significance of the rain prayer make it a site of spiritual importance for Muslims visiting Madinah. The architectural beauty and the story behind Masjid Ghamama add to its allure, making it a notable landmark in the city.

Well maintained, clean. There is a seperate entrance for women at the east side of the mosque. This was the mosque where the prophet Mohamed saw did his last Eid prayers. Also the name means ‘cloud’ which refers to the fact that the prophet saw performed here the prayer to request rain, and subhanAllah afterwards it did rain.

Where Hazrat Muhammad SAWW offered prayer for Rain and for Eid. May Allah forgive any amendments! Ameen

My journey to this beautiful city was amazing, Allhamdulilah. I saw this mosque but didn't knew what importance it had. May Allah pak give me another chance to visit and pray in this mosque, Ameen❤️

This Mosque is loved for bringing rain when the Prophet Muhammad PBUH prayed Salatul Istisqa. This is also known for the place where Janazah prayer, was offered for the King of Abasynia, Najashi. Eid prayers were offered here by the Prophet Muhammad PBUH.
