Sulaymānī Miḥrāb(Arabic: محراب سلیمانی)is one of Miḥrābs of Al-Nabīī Mosque. This Miḥrāb is on the right side of the Miḥrāb of the Prophet(a) and on the left side of the pulpit of the Prophet(a). This Miḥrāb was built in the mosque from the 9th century/15th century AD, and was the place of prayer for the followers of Ḥanafī denomination. In 938/1531-2, by order of Sultan Sulaymān qānūnī, this Miḥrāb was rebuilt and since then it has been known as Sulaymānī Miḥrāb.

The place of the Miḥrāb

Sulaymānī Miḥrāb, which is also called Ḥanafī Miḥrāb, is one of the Miḥrābs of Masjid Al-Nabī in medina. This Miḥrāb is located within the scope of the mosque of the time of the Prophet(a), outside the Rawḍa, at the southern area of the mosque (before the southern area of ʿUmar and ʿUthmān’s development), in front and on the right side of the Miḥrāb of the Prophet(a) and on the left side of the pulpit of the Prophet(a), in the place of the third column west of this pulpit and the seventh column of Bāb al-Salām.[1]

This Miḥrāb was built in 861AH/ 1456-7AD during the era of Malik al-Ashraf Abū Nasr ʾīnāl, one of the kings of Egypt (R:857-865 AH/1453-4; 1460-1AD) by the supervisor of the affairs of Masjid al-Ḥarām, Ṭūghān Sheikh Aḥmadī Ḥanafī (881 AH/1476-7).[2] Until the age of Sheikh Ṭūghān, Muslims in Masjid Al-Nabī used to do daily prayer to an Imam who stood in the Prophet's Miḥrāb during the off-season of Hajj and in the ʿUthmān Miḥrāb during the Hajj season. Ṭūghān Sheikh built a new Miḥrāb in the mosque so that a separate congregational prayer can be held under the following of a Ḥanafī Imam. After this date, the beginning of prayer was held under the following of Imam Shafiʿī, who stood in the Prophet’s Miḥrāb, and then Imam Ḥanafī prayed in the new Miḥrāb(which became known as the Ḥanafī Miḥrāb and later the Sulaymānī Miḥrāb). Imam Ḥanafī and Imam Shafiʿī performed the Tarāwīḥ prayer together in the nights of Ramaḍān.[3]This issue spread from Medina to Mecca as well.[4]
