The Madinan Sanctuary / The Prophet’s Mosque in Medina
Ḥaram Madanī is an area of the city of Medina in the Hijaz that, in Islam, holds sanctity and has special etiquettes and rulings.
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.
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.
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).

**Imam Ali Mosque (AS)** is one of the historical mosques in [[Medina]], built on the site of the [[Prophet's Prayer Ground (PBUH)]]. The prayer ground was an open area where the Prophet and the people of Medina performed Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr prayers. This mosque is located in the [[Manakha]] district, west of the [[Prophet's Mosque]]. According to reports, Imam Ali (AS) led Eid prayers at this site when [[Uthman ibn Affan|Uthman]] was under siege by his opponents. 
 
### Geographical Location 
The Mosque of Ali ibn Abi Talib (AS), the [[Musalla Mosque]], and the [[Abu Bakr Mosque (Medina)|Abu Bakr Mosque]] are three mosques known as the Prophet's Prayer Ground Mosques in the Manakha district. These mosques are located close to each other, west of the Prophet's Mosque.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Masajid_al-Athariya.pdf&page=223 Masājid al-Athariya, p. 223]</ref> The Imam Ali Mosque is located north of the Musalla Mosque and the Abu Bakr Mosque, with a distance of 122 meters from the Musalla Mosque, 80 meters from the Abu Bakr Mosque, and 290 meters from the Prophet's Mosque.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Masajid_al-Athariya.pdf&page=242 Masājid al-Athariya, p. 242]; Maʿālim al-Madīna al-Munawwara bayn al-ʿImāra wa al-Tārīkh, vol. 1, p. 486.</ref> 
 
According to Samhudi (d. 911 AH), a historian of Medina, these mosques were built on the sites where the Prophet performed Eid prayers. These locations were initially not mosques but open spaces or deserts that were later converted into mosques.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Wafa_al-Wafa_Samhudi_Vol3.pdf&page=122 Wafāʾ al-Wafāʾ, vol. 3, p. 122]</ref> 
 
### Naming 
According to narrations, when Uthman was under siege in his house by his opponents, [[Imam Ali (AS)]] performed Eid prayers at this site. Some historians of Medina believe this event is the reason for the mosque's name.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Wafa_al-Wafa_Samhudi_Vol3.pdf&page=121 Wafāʾ al-Wafāʾ, vol. 3, p. 121]</ref> They emphasize that Imam Ali (AS) and the caliphs only performed Eid prayers at the Prophet's prayer grounds; thus, the Mosque of Ali ibn Abi Talib is one of the Prophet's prayer grounds.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Al-Taʿrīf bi-mā Anasat al-Hijra.pdf&page=147 Al-Taʿrīf bi-mā Anasat al-Hijra, p. 147]</ref> 
 
### History of the Mosque's Construction 
According to Samhudi, the mosque was first built during the time of Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz (r. 87–93 AH). However, it was later abandoned, and the site became a burial ground for pilgrims who passed away during the [[Hajj season]]. In 881 AH, Zayn al-Din Digham al-Mansuri, the governor of Medina, reconstructed it.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Wafa_al-Wafa_Samhudi_Vol3.pdf&page=123 Wafāʾ al-Wafāʾ, vol. 3, p. 123]</ref> 
 
Ali ibn Musa, in 1303 AH (1885 CE), described the mosque as having a single minaret.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Wasf_al-Madina_al-Munawwara.pdf&page=1 Wasf al-Madīna al-Munawwara, p. 17]</ref> Ibrahim Rif'at Pasha also mentioned the mosque during his travels in 1318 AH.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/images/9/9e/Mirʾāt_al-Haramayn_Ibrahim_Rifʿat_Pasha_Vol1.pdf Mirʾāt al-Haramayn, vol. 1, p. 422]</ref> 
 
#### Reconstruction in the 13th Century AH 
An inscription, reportedly present on the mosque's wall until the early 20th century, contained verses indicating that the mosque was reconstructed in 1269 AH (1852 CE) during the reign of Sultan Abdulmejid I of the Ottoman Empire.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Al-Madina_al-Munawwara_Tatawwuruhā_al-ʿUmrānī.pdf&page=158 Al-Madīna al-Munawwara, p. 158]; [https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Maʿālim_al-Madīna_al-Munawwara_bayn_al-ʿImāra_wa_al-Tārīkh_Juzʾ4_Mujallad1.pdf&page=489 Maʿālim al-Madīna al-Munawwara, Juzʾ 4, Mujallad 1, p. 489]</ref> The building, before its reconstruction in 1411 AH (1991 CE), looked like this: 
 
[[File:Imam Ali Mosque before 1991 reconstruction.png|center|thumb|593x593px|The building as it stood in 1269 AH]] 
 
#### Reconstruction in 1991 CE 
The Imam Ali Mosque in Manakha was completely demolished and reconstructed in 1411 AH (1991 CE) due to its deterioration. It was rebuilt in its original architectural style,<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Masajid_al-Athariya.pdf&page=243 Masājid al-Athariya, p. 243]; [https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Maʿālim_al-Madīna_al-Munawwara_bayn_al-ʿImāra_wa_al-Tārīkh_Juzʾ4_Mujallad1.pdf&page=490 Maʿālim al-Madīna al-Munawwara, Juzʾ 4, Mujallad 1, p. 490]</ref> with the addition of a women's prayer area and restrooms.<ref name=":0">[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Maʿālim_al-Madīna_al-Munawwara_bayn_al-ʿImāra_wa_al-Tārīkh_Juzʾ4_Mujallad1.pdf&page=490 Maʿālim al-Madīna al-Munawwara, Juzʾ 4, Mujallad 1, p. 490]</ref> Further renovations were carried out in 1429 AH (2009 CE).<ref name=":0" />

### Architectural Features 
The Imam Ali Mosque (AS) has a rectangular structure. To the north is an open courtyard, and to the south is a covered arcade with seven domes, the largest of which is above the mihrab. The arcade is 30 meters long and 6 meters wide, with doors opening to the mosque's courtyard. The mosque also has a minaret located in the southeastern corner.<ref>[https://wikihaj.com/index.php?title=File:Maʿālim_al-Madīna_al-Munawwara_bayn_al-ʿImāra_wa_al-Tārīkh_Juzʾ4_Mujallad1.pdf&page=490 Maʿālim al-Madīna al-Munawwara bayn al-ʿImāra wa al-Tārīkh, vol. 1, p. 490]</ref>
