'''Shajara mosque'''(Arabic: مسجد الشجره) in [[Medina]] is one of the [[five Miqats]]. This place is the Miqat for the people of Medina and those who travel from Medina to [[Mecca]]. It is said that the Prophet of Islam, peace be upon him, would don the [[ihram]] from this location when he set out for [[Hajj]]. [[Dhul-Halayfa]], [[Miqat Mosque]], and [[Abar 'Ali|Abar Ali]] are other names for this mosque.
The Madinan Sanctuary / The Prophet’s Mosque in Medina
According to historians, the Masjid Shajara was built during the caliphate of Umar ibn Khattab and has been reconstructed several times since then. Today, the Shajara mosque is located about three kilometers from Medina, near the Medina-Mecca highway.
Ḥaram Madanī is an area of the city of Medina in the Hijaz that, in Islam, holds sanctity and has special etiquettes and rulings.
==location==
This area extends from the east and west between the eastern lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Sharqiyya) and the western lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Gharbiyya), and from the north and south, from Mount Thawr to Mount ʿAyr.
Shajara mosque is one of the historical mosques of [[Medina]].<ref>Ṣabrī Pāshā, ''Mawsūʿa mirʾāt al-ḥaramayn'', vol. 4, p. 811.</ref> And it is located about eight kilometers south of this city.<ref>Ibn Najīm, ''Al-Baḥr al-rāʾiq'', vol. 2, p. 341.</ref> The Prophet of Islam would don the [[ihram]] from this mosque for performing [[Hajj]] and [[Umra]]. <ref>Ṣabrī Pāshā, ''Mawsūʿa mirʾāt al-ḥaramayn'', vol. 4, p. 811.</ref>
The Madinan Sanctuary has rulings and etiquettes, such as the recommended act of performing ghusl and purification when entering it, and these are similar to the rulings and etiquettes of the Meccan Sanctuary.
[[Imam Ali(S)]] took the verses of dissociation from [[Abu Bakr]], the first caliph, at this place and proclaimed them to the polytheists in [[Mecca]].<ref>A group of authors. ''dānishnāma-yi kalām islāmī'', vol. 1, p. 77.</ref>
Some have considered the reason for Medina being made a sanctuary to be the granting of protection to Medina and its inhabitants, while others have attributed it to the presence of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
According to a report, there is another mosque with the same name in Mecca that is among the oldest mosques in that city.<ref> Qāʾidān, ''Tārīkh wa āthār-i Islāmī-yi Makka wa Madīna'', vol. 1, p. 118.</ref>
==Boundaries==
==Names==
The Madinan Sanctuary is an area within Medina in the Hijaz.
This mosque is called Shajara mosque because there was a tree there under whose shade [[Prophet Muhammad (s)|the Prophet]] would sit.<ref>Samhūdī, '' Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā '', vol. 3, p. 421.</ref>
This sanctuary lies, from the east and west, between the eastern lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Sharqiyya) and the western lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Gharbiyya).(1) al-Kulaynī ,"al-Kāfī,",vol. 4,p. 564-565. ,,, ibn Ḥanbal ," Musnad al-Imām Aḥmad ibn Ḥanbal ",vol. 3,p. 23. ,,, al-Ḥajjāj al-Nīshābūrī Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim",vol. 4,p. 113.
The mosque has been built in an area called [[Dhul-Hulayfa]]. This area is also known as [[Abar 'Ali|Abar]] or Abiar Ali and is attributed to [[Ali b. Abi Talib]]. Consequently, this mosque is also known by the names Masjid Dhul-Hulayfa and Masjid Abar Ali or Bi’r Ali. Additionally, it is popularly referred to by the locals as Masjid Ihram and Masjid Miqat. It is also called Masjid al-Husa.<ref>Kaʿakī, '' Ma ʿālim al-madina al-munawwara bayn al-ʿMārat wa al-Tārīkh'', vol. 4, p. 485-487.</ref>
And according to one narration, it extends from the north and south, from Mount Thawr to Mount ‘Ayr.(2) al-Ḥajjāj al-Nīshābūrī Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim",vol. 4,p. 115. ,,, al-Bukhārī , "Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī ",vol. 8,p. 10.  
==The construction date==
The original construction of this mosque is very ancient. Some historians, based on documents, have also mentioned that the mosque was built in the early decades of Islamic history.<ref>Najafī, ''Madīna shināsī'', vol. 1, p. 183.</ref> Historians speculate that this mosque was first built during the governorship of [[Umar b. Abdul-aziz]] over Medina, between the years 87-93 AH/706- 711-12.<ref>Kaʿakī, '' Ma ʿālim al-madina al-munawwara bayn al-ʿMārat wa al-Tārīkh'', vol. 4, p. 496.</ref>
===Ninth century reconstruction===
According to Matari (d. 741 AH/1340-1), the old structure of this mosque, which was a large building, had become partially ruined by his time (the first half of the 8th century).<ref>Maṭarī,''Al-Taʿrīf bimā ʾānasat al-hijra min maʿālim dār al-hijra'', p. 190.</ref>
However, according to Samhudi (a historian of Medina who died in 911 AH/1505-6), the mosque was reconstructed in the year 861 AH/1456-7 based on its original structure.<ref>Samhūdī, '' Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā '', vol. 3, p. 424.</ref>
===fourteenth centuryReconstruction===


It is said that this mosque was built in the late 11th century.<ref>Najafī, ''Madīna shināsī'', vol. 1, p. 184.</ref>  It was destroyed, and a Muslim from India, in the year 1090 AH/1679-80, with the permission of the Ottoman government, reconstructed it.<ref>ʿAbd al-Ghanī, ''Al-masajid al-atharīyya fī al-madīna al-nabawīyya'', p. 258.</ref>
In the narrations, other various expressions have also been mentioned for determining its northern and southern boundaries.(3) al-Kulaynī ,"al-Kāfī,",vol. 4,p. 564. ,,, al-Majlisī ,"Marāʾat al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl ", vol. 18, p. 279. ,,, Najafī," Jawāhir al-Kalām fī Sharḥ Sharāʾiʿ al-Islām " ,vol. 20, p. 75. ,,, ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337.
Hisam al-Saltana, who saw this mosque in the year 1298 AH/1880-1, described it as follows: 'The mentioned mosque is square and fifty-two cubits in length. It is made of stone and plaster. On the south side, there is a porch over which an arch is placed, and its dome has been whitened from the outside, and there is a mihrab in the middle of it.<ref>Sulṭān Murād Mīrzā Ḥisām al-salṭana,''Safarnāma makka'', p. 139.</ref>
==Why it became a Haram==
Ayyashi, in a report about his first trip in the year 1353 AH/1934-5, writes about this mosque: 'A rectangular building made of mudbrick and mud, with a roof made of date palm wood and leaves, which caught the attention of the officials of the time and was expanded.<ref> ʿAbd al-Ghanī, ''Al-masajid al-atharīyya fī al-madīna al-nabawīyya'', p. 258.</ref>
Various reasons have been mentioned for why the city of Medina was made a sanctuary (ḥaram).
 
Some of them are as follows:
===The current state===

According to some historians, when [[Prophet Muhammad (s)|the Prophet(s)]] was setting out for [[Mecca]] to perform the Hajj, he would enter into the state of [[Ihram]] at this place.<ref>Qāʾidān, ''Tārīkh wa āthār-i Islāmī-yi Makka wa Madīna'', vol. 1, p. 275.</ref>
==Etiquettes and Rules==
Jurists consider Masjid al-Shajarah as one of the [[five Miqats]] for Hajj and believe that it is the Miqat for the people of Medina and those who travel from this city to Mecca.<ref>Shāhrūdī, ''Farhang-i fiqh muṭābiq bā madhhab-i Ahl al-Bayt'', vol. 3, p. 712.</ref>
Main Article: Etiquettes of the Two Sanctuaries
===The necessity of the people of Medina to enter Ihram at Shajara mosque===
According to Shia hadith sources, the Medina sanctuary has etiquettes and rulings similar to the Mecca sanctuary; such as the virtue of performing ghusl (ritual purification) and maintaining cleanliness upon entering Medina and when visiting the Prophet’s sanctuary (peace be upon him).
According to the prevalent opinion among Shia jurists, residents of [[Medina]] must enter Ihram at Shajara mosque, and it is not permissible for them to leave the Miqat of Shajara mosque without entering Ihram and go to another Miqat like [[Juhfa]] to enter [[Ihram]] there.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_43464.html Whose duty is Ihram from Jufah?] p. 64-65.</ref>
Some Sunni jurists have also issued rulings recommending ghusl upon entering the Medina sanctuary.(6) al-Ḥaskafī , "al-Durr al-Mukhtār " ,vol. 1, p. 184. ,,, al-Majmūʿ Sharḥ al-Muḥadhdhab ",vol. 8, p. 273. ,,, Fatḥ al-Wahhāb, vol. 1, p. 257.
Only for those who are excused (incapacitated or ill), is it permissible to enter Ihram from Juhfa.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_43464.html Whose duty is Ihram from Jufah?] p. 75.</ref> It has also been stated that this ruling applies to those who go from Medina to [[Dhul-Halifa]] and pass through without entering Ihram and reach Juhfa; however, if they do not pass through Dhul-Hulayfa and exit via another route to another [[Miqat]], there is no issue, because passing through the Miqat in this manner is not conventionally considered crossing the Miqat.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_43464.html Whose duty is Ihram from Jufah?] p. 65.</ref>
In Shia narrations, regarding hunting and cutting trees, there are narrations permitting(7) al-Ḥumayrī ," Qurb al-Isnād ", p. 301.
 
And narrations indicating non-permissibility.(8) ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337.
===The exact location of the Miqat===
They indicate this. In narrations from the Sunni tradition, cutting the trees of the Haram Madani (the Sanctuary of Medina) has been deemed forbidden.(9) ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337.
[[Dhul-Halifa]] was the name of a large area where Shajara mosque was located.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_37980_ed97038f84c6a271f8cd14936a05d7b7.pdf Miqat on the way to Medina], p. 61.</ref>
Related topics
In narratives, sometimes Shajara mosque is referred to as the [[Miqat]] for the Hajj of the people of Medina, and sometimes only the terms 'Shajara' or 'Dhul-Halifa' are used.<ref>Fāḍil Lankarāni, ''Tafṣīl al-sharīʿa fī sharḥ Taḥrīr al-waṣīla'', vol. 3, p. 20-24.</ref>
•The Two Sanctuaries (Haramayn)
Some believe that entering into Ihram is only valid inside Shajara mosque, while others consider it valid to enter [[Ihram]] outside the mosque but still in its vicinity.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_37980_ed97038f84c6a271f8cd14936a05d7b7.pdf Miqat on the way to Medina], p. 62.</ref>

Main Article: Etiquettes of the Two Sanctuaries According to Shia hadith sources, the Medina sanctuary has etiquettes and rulings similar to the Mecca sanctuary; such as the virtue of performing ghusl (ritual purification) and maintaining cleanliness upon entering Medina and when visiting the Prophet’s sanctuary (peace be upon him). Some Sunni jurists have also issued rulings recommending ghusl upon entering the Medina sanctuary.(6) al-Ḥaskafī , "al-Durr al-Mukhtār " ,vol. 1, p. 184. ,,, al-Majmūʿ Sharḥ al-Muḥadhdhab ",vol. 8, p. 273. ,,, Fatḥ al-Wahhāb, vol. 1, p. 257. In Shia narrations, regarding hunting and cutting trees, there are narrations permitting(7) al-Ḥumayrī ," Qurb al-Isnād ", p. 301. And narrations indicating non-permissibility.(8) ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337. They indicate this. In narrations from the Sunni tradition, cutting the trees of the Haram Madani (the Sanctuary of Medina) has been deemed forbidden.(9) ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337.
