'''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.

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)]].<ref>Jaʿfarīyān, ''Āthār-i islāmi-yi Makka wa Madīna'', p. 217-218.</ref>

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.<ref>Anṣārī, ''ʿImārah wa tawsiah al-masjid al-nabawīī'', p. 61.</ref> This chamber is situated in the east of the mosque, and its door opens into the [[Rawdah of the Prophet]].<ref>Anṣārī, ''ʿImārah wa tawsiah al-masjid al-nabawīī'', p. 61.</ref>

'''Salman al-Farsi Mosque''' is one of the historical mosques in Medina, located south of the [[Fath Mosque (Medina)|Fath Mosque]] and northwest of [[Mount Sela']]. The Prophet (PBUH) prayed at this site during the [[Battle of the Trench]]. The mosque is named after [[Salman al-Farsi]], one of the companions of [[Prophet Muhammad(s)], who suggested digging the trench to defend against the Quraysh army. The mosque features a courtyard and a rectangular prayer hall.


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.<ref>Anṣārī, ''ʿImārah wa tawsiah al-masjid al-nabawīī'', p. 62; Shanqīṭī, ''Al-Durra al-thamīn fī maʿālim dār al-rasūl al-Amīn'', p. 69.</ref>
==Name and Location== 
==Those who are buried in this Chamber==
Salman al-Farsi Mosque is located south of the [[Fath Mosque]] and northwest of the slopes of [[Mount Sela']].<ref name=":0">[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Masajid_al-Athariya.pdf&page=143 Masājid al-Athariya, ʿAbd al-Ghanī, p. 143.]</ref> It is said that the mosque was named after [[Salman al-Farsi]], a companion of the Prophet (PBUH), who played a key role in the [[Battle of the Trench]] by proposing the idea of digging the trench.<ref name=":0" /> 
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.
==The Prophet's Prayer== 
==reconstructions==
Salman al-Farsi Mosque is one of the [[Fath Mosques]]. According to narrations, the Prophet (PBUH) prayed at the Fath Mosque and its surrounding mosques.<ref name=":4">Al-Durra al-Thamina fi Tarikh al-Madina, Ibn Najjar, p. 189.</ref> Ibn Shabba reports that during the [[Battle of the Trench]], the Prophet prayed at the base of Mount Sela' and then ascended the mountain to supplicate.<ref name=":2">[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Tarikh_al-Madina_al-Munawwara_Ibn_Shabba.pdf&page=59 Tarikh al-Madina al-Munawwara, Ibn Shabba, pp. 58–59.]</ref> Researchers believe this site to be the same as Salman al-Farsi Mosque.<ref name=":1">[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Masajid_al-Athariya.pdf&page=144 Masājid al-Athariya, ʿAbd al-Ghanī, p. 144.]</ref> 
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.
==History== 
==Gallary==
Salman al-Farsi Mosque is one of the oldest mosques in [[Medina]]. Some scholars suggest that it was likely built during the governorship of [[Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz]] over Medina (87–101 AH).<ref name=":6">[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Al-Madina_al-Munawwara_Tatawwuruhā_al-ʿUmrānī.pdf&page=188 Al-Madīna al-Munawwara: Tatawwuruhā al-ʿUmrānī, p. 188.]</ref> The mention of the mosque in the works of Ibn Shabba<ref name=":2" /> (who lived between 173–262 AH) indicates that the mosque existed in the 2nd century AH.
