The Chamber of the Prophet, the home of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and Aisha, is the place of the Prophet's demise and his burial site. It is located in the city of Medina within the premises of the Masjid al-nabi. This house, like the other houses of the Prophet's wives, was attached to the [Masjid al-nabi, and its door opened into the mosque. Later, with the expansion of the Masjid al-nabi, it became part of its interior.
Location
During the construction of the Prophet's Mosque, rooms (chambers) were built on its eastern side for the residence of the Prophet and his wives. Initially, a chamber was built for Suda, followed by one for Aisha, and extending from there, another chamber was constructed for Fatima(a).[1] The Noble Chamber is the title given to the chamber of Aisha because the Prophet passed away in this chamber and was buried at the same location.[2] This chamber is situated in the east of the mosque, and its door opens into the Rawdah of the Prophet.[3]
The Prophet's burial place is in this Chamber
The Prophet passed away in the chamber of Aisha.[4] However, some sources believe that the resting place and burial site of the Prophet are between the chamber of Aisha and the chamber of Lady Fatimah, belonging to none of his wives.[5]
After the Prophet's demise, discussions arose about the location of his burial. Abu Bakr mentioned that he had heard from the Prophet that every prophet is buried at the place where they breathe their last. Consequently, the Prophet was buried in Aisha's chamber, and his grave was placed in the southern part of the chamber.[6]
Those who are buried in this Chamber
After the Prophet's burial, Aisha lived in the northern part of the chamber, and there was no curtain between her and the grave. After the death of Abu Bakr, his body was buried next to the Prophet's grave, with a forearm's distance, and his head was aligned with the Prophet's shoulders.
Following the death of Umar, Aisha allowed him to be buried in the chamber as well. Consequently, with a forearm's distance, Umar's head was placed opposite the shoulders of Abu Bakr. After Umar's burial, Aisha drew a curtain between the graves and her living space, as Umar's presence was considered inappropriate for her.
reconstructions
During the reconstruction of the Prophet's Mosque in the time of Walid ibn Abdul Malik, a pentagonal wall was erected around the Noble Chamber, and a portion of the Prophet's Rawdah was included within this enclosure.
In the Mamluk period, a wooden enclosure was constructed around the chamber of Aisha, and the house of Lady Fatimah was also placed inside this enclosure. In this way, a part of the Prophet's Rawdah and the house of Lady Fatimah became part of the space now referred to as the Noble Chamber. The area of the Noble Chamber, including these additions, is 240 square meters (16 meters in length and 15 meters in width), and a golden grille has been installed around it.
