'''Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar'''(Arabic: مُربَّعَه القبر) 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. | '''Murabba'at al-Qabr Pillar'''(Arabic: مُربَّعَه القبر) 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]].
