Masjid al-Bay'ah (Bay'ah Mosque) is an ancient mosque in the city of Mecca, dating back to the 2nd century AH. This mosque is located near Jamarat al-Aqaba and outside the legal boundary of Mina. It is the place where the people of Yathrib pledged allegiance to the Prophet (s).
According to an inscription on the western wall of Masjid al-Bay'ah, the mosque was built in 144 AH/761-2 by the order of Mansur Abbasi and was later renovated several times.
Naming
When the people of Yathrib (Medina) became acquainted with Islam, during the days of Hajj, at the Jamarat al-Aqabah, they pledged allegiance to the prophet(s) for the first time. After that, Islam spread in Medina. At the site of this event, which is known as the First Pledge of Aqabah, a mosque was built that became famous as "Masjid al-Bay'ah" (Mosque of the Pledge).[1] In sources, other mosques are also referred to by the name Masjid al-Bay'ah:
- Masjid al-Ghanam, a mosque in Mecca, which was the place where the people of Mecca pledged allegiance to the Prophet (s).[2]
- Masjid al-Jinn, a mosque in Mecca, which is the place where the jinn pledged allegiance to the Prophet (s).[3]
Location
Masjid al-Bay'ah is in Mecca, near the Jamarat al-Aqabah [outside the legal boundary of Mina from the Mecca side], on the southern slope of Mount Thubayr. This area is known as Sha'b al-Ansar and Sha'b al-Bay'ah.[4] and it is on the left side of someone who is traveling from Mecca towards Mina. The distance from Masjid al-Bay'ah to Jamarat al-Aqabah is more than three hundred meters.[5] Nowadays, with the development of Mina, the area around Masjid al-Bay'ah, which was previously within the valley and enclosed by mountains, has been cleared. Currently, the mosque is located at the end of the exit path of the second level of the Jamarat towards Mecca, and an iron fence has been placed around the mosque.[6] The area of Masjid al-Bay'ah is 500 square meters. The mosque is rectangular in shape, with a length of 27.90 meters and a width of 17 meters. It is constructed of stone and brick and has no roof.[7]
History of the Construction
According to an inscription from the year 144 AH, which is still preserved and installed on the western wall of the mosque, the construction of this mosque was commissioned by Abu Ja'far al-Mansur Abbasid (R: 136-158 AH/753-775).[8] Additionally, an inscription from the year 629 AH/1231-2 is also installed on the southern wall of the mosque, which reports the restoration of the mosque during the time of al-Mustansir Abbasid (R: 623-640 AH/1226-1243).[9] Other sources also mention Masjid al-Bay'ah throughout various centuries; for instance, Ibn Jubayr referred to it during his journey to Mecca in the year 578 AH/1182-3.[10] Ibn Taymiyyah (d. 728 AH/1327-8) also mentioned the existence of the mosque.[11] Al-Fasi (d. 832 AH/1428-9), the historian of Mecca, described the mosque. According to him, the mosque had two porticoes, each with three domes resting on four archways. Behind these porticoes, there was also an open area.[12] The mosque was also destroyed at various times throughout history; for instance, a report from the 11th century mentions the destruction of the mosque.[13] However, during the Ottoman era, the mosque was rebuilt during the reign of Sultan Abdul Hamid II (1876-1909 CE).[14] There is also a report of repairs to parts of the mosque during the reign of King Fahd of Saudi Arabia.[15]
