''' | '''The Prophet's Mihrab''' (Arabic: {{ia|محراب النبي}}) is the place where [[Prophet Muhammad(a)]] used to pray, which is located in the [[al-Masjid al-Nabawi]] between the [[Prophet's pulpit]] and his grave. During the time of the Prophet (s), there was nothing in the form of a mihrab, until later during the development of the al-Masjid al-Nabawi during the period of al-Walid b. 'Abd al-Malik, a mihrab was built in the place of his prayer. Qaitbay, the king of Egypt (9th/15th century) rebuilt the hollow-shaped mihrab by renewing the mosque. This mihrab was decorated during the era of Ottoman rule and is still located in al-Masjid al-Nabawi. | ||
