Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar is one of the pillars of Masjid al-Nabi, which is located next to the Prophet's grave and at the door of Fatima's house. Some people believe that because this pillar is located next to the square grave of the Prophet, it is called Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar of the grave. Placing this pillar inside the shrine is another reason of this naming. It has also been called the pillar of Maqam Jibra'il; Because Gabriel descended on the Prophet in this place. This pillar is also called Ma'ras pillar. It is recommended to pray in this place.

The place of Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar

This pillar is located next to the entrance door of Fatima's house and in the row of Wufud and Mahras pillars[1] and now it is located inside the shrine and at the end of the northern side of the house of the prophet and is not visible to pilgrims.[2] According to sources, this pillar was outside the shrine and accessible to pilgrims until the mosque was developed by Qaytbay (d. 887 AH/ 1482-3). But in this period, despite the protest of the scholars, it was placed inside the shrine. [3]

Names

Murabba'at al-Qabr

The reason for this naming is that, according to Ibn Shahr Ashub, when Imam Ali(a), with the help of three emigrants, 'Abbas and his son Fazl and Usama b. Zayd, wanted to bury the holy body of the Prophet, the Ansar asked Imam Ali to One of them should also enter the grave to bury the body of the Prophet. Ali sent Aws b. Kholi into the grave. After placing the blessed body of the Prophet in the grave, Imam Ali said to him: "Go out and make the grave four corners."[4] Another reason of this name is that this pillar is placed inside a shrine where the four-cornered tomb of the Prophet is located.[5]

Maqam Jibra'il

This pillar became known as the place where Gabriel descended to the Prophet.[6]

Ma'ras pillar

This pillar is located in the northwest of the Prophet's grave and according to Sabri Pasha, it is located between the two pillars of theWufud pillar and the Prophet's grave, and it was next to it in Fatima's house.[7] According to reports, Fatima's wedding took place in this place. Hence, it is also called "استوانة المَعْرَس: Al-Ma'ras pillar".[8]

virtue of Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar

There are some narrations about the virtue of this pillar and it is recommended to pray[9] in this place and to seek blessings from it.[10] According to a narration, Prophet used to rest his hand on the door frame of Fatimah's house for 40 days and say: "السّلام عليكم يا أهل البيت; Peace be upon you, O Ahl al-Bayt" and then read the verse of Tathir (purification)[11].[12]
