Qubba al-Waḥy(Arabic: قبة الوحی ;lit:The Dome of Revelation) is a room in the house of lady Khadīja (PBUH) in Mecca, which is said to have been the place of worship of the Prophet and part of the verses of the Quran were revealed to him in this place. This place, which was a part of lady Khadīja’s house, has disappeared today and is located in the erea of Masjid al-Ḥarām.
lady Khadīja’s house
The house of lady Khadīja(a), the Prophet’s wife, in Mecca, was the same house where the Prophet of Islam (pbuh) lived after marrying Khadijah (pbuh) until he migrated to Medina. This house has disappeared today and it is inside the Al-Masjid al-Ḥarām.
Dome of Revelation
The building known as Khadīja’s house in Mecca had two domes in the descriptions that survived from the 6th century AH onwards. One is a larger dome called the Dome of Revelation, which was the place where the Prophet and Khadīja lived, and the place where Gabriel descended upon the Prophet, and the other is a small dome, where lady Fatima(a) was born.[1]Other sources have continued to talk about the existence of the revelation dome or a room as the Prophet’s place of worship in Khadīja’s house until the 14th century[3Al-ʿaqd al-thamīn fī tārīkh al-balad al-ʾamīn.
