'''Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar''' is one of the pillars of [[Masjid al-Nabi]], which is located next to the [[Prophet's grave]] and at the door of [[Fatima's house]]. Some people believe that because this pillar is located next to the square grave of the Prophet, it is called Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar of the grave. Placing this pillar inside the shrine is another reason of this naming. It has also been called the pillar of Maqam Jibra'il; Because Gabriel descended on the Prophet in this place. This pillar is also called Ma'ras pillar. It is recommended to pray in this place.

According to sources, this pillar was outside the shrine and accessible to pilgrims until [[the mosque was developed by Qaytbay]] (d. 887 AH/ 1482-3). But in this period, despite the protest of the scholars, it was placed inside the shrine. <ref>Rafʿat Pāshā, ''Mirʾāt al-ḥaramayn'', vol. 3, p. 239; Yamānī, ''Mawsūʿa makka al-mukarrama'', vol. 2, p. 447.</ref>

The reason for this naming is that, according to Ibn Shahr Ashub, when [[Imam Ali]](a), with the help of three [[emigrants]], [['Abbas]] and his son Fazl and [[Usama b. Zayd]], wanted to bury the holy body of the Prophet, the [[Ansar]] asked Imam Ali to One of them should also enter the grave to bury the body of the Prophet. Ali sent Aws b. Kholi into the grave. After placing the blessed body of the Prophet in the grave, Imam Ali said to him: "Go out and make the grave four corners."<ref>Ibn Shahrāshūb, ''Manāqib Āl Abī Ṭālib'', vol. 1, p. 174; Shurrāb, ''Al- maʿālim al-ʾathīra'', p. 39.</ref> Another reason of this name is that this pillar is placed inside a shrine where the four-cornered [[tomb of the Prophet]] is located.<ref>Shurrāb, ''Al- maʿālim al-ʾathīra'', p. 39.</ref>
