The reason why this pillar is named Tahjud is because when the mosque was empty of worshipers, the Prophet would spread a mat next to this pillar, which was located after the door of the house of the Commander of the Faithful, and would stand on it to perform Tahjud and pray.[4] Ali (pbuh) also prays the night prayer here. [5. Najjār, Muḥammad  b. Maḥmūd al- .Al-Durra al-thamīna fī akhbār al-madinap.125.Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā vol.2.p.420]
The reason why this pillar is named Tahajjud is because when the mosque was empty of worshipers, the Prophet would spread a mat next to this pillar, which was located after the door of the house of Imam Ali, and would stand on it to perform prayer.<ref>Shurrāb, ''Al- maʿālim al-ʾathīra'', p. 43.</ref> [[Imam Ali]](a) also prays the night prayer here.<ref> Najjār, ''Al-Durra al-thamīna'', p. 125; Yamānī, ''Mawsūʿa makka al-mukarrama'', vol. 2, p. 420.</ref>
Following the imitation of some Muslims from the Messenger of God, he collected the mat and in response to those who asked the reason for this, he said: I was afraid that the night prayer would become obligatory on you and you would not be able to do it. [6. Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā vol2.p.187 ] Ibn Najjar and Mutari from This place has been referred to as “Masli al-Nabi, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, in Lail: the night prayer place of the Prophet”. In the following centuries, an altar was built in that place.[7.Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā vol2.p.189.    ][8.Samhūdī, ʿAlī b. ʿAbd Allāh. Wafāʾ al-wafā vol 2p.189. ]

The virtue of the Tahjad pillar
 
In the sources, there are narrations about the virtue of praying next to this pillar; Among them, Muhammad bin Hanafiyah, the son of Imam Ali, said to Saeed bin Abdullah bin Fazil, who was praying there: This is where the prayer of the Messenger of God was when he brought the Nafala at night. Therefore, be there continuously.[9. Najjār, Muḥammad  b. Maḥmūd al- .Al-Durra al-thamīna fī akhbār al-madinap.257.. ][10. Ansārī, Nājī  Muḥammad Ḥasan ʿabdu l-qādir al-. ʿImārah wa tawsiah al-masjid al-nabawīī p.73. ]
