'''The Chamber of the Prophet''', the home of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and Aisha, is the place of the Prophet's demise and his burial site. It is located in the city of [[Medina]] within the premises of the [[Masjid al-nabi]]. This house, like the other houses of the [[Prophet's wives]], was attached to the [Masjid al-nabi, and its door opened into the mosque. Later, with the expansion of the Masjid al-nabi, it became part of its interior.

After the Prophet's demise, discussions arose about the location of his burial. Abu Bakr mentioned that he had heard from the Prophet that every prophet is buried at the place where they breathe their last. Consequently, the Prophet was buried in Aisha's chamber, and his grave was placed in the southern part of the chamber.<ref>Anṣārī, ''ʿImārah wa tawsiah al-masjid al-nabawīī'', p. 62; Shanqīṭī, ''Al-Durra al-thamīn fī maʿālim dār al-rasūl al-Amīn'', p. 69.</ref>

After the Prophet's burial, Aisha lived in the northern part of the chamber, and there was no curtain between her and the grave. After the death of Abu Bakr, his body was buried next to the Prophet's grave, with a forearm's distance, and his head was aligned with the Prophet's shoulders.

Following the death of Umar, Aisha allowed him to be buried in the chamber as well. Consequently, with a forearm's distance, Umar's head was placed opposite the shoulders of Abu Bakr. After Umar's burial, Aisha drew a curtain between the graves and her living space, as Umar's presence was considered inappropriate for her.

During the reconstruction of the Prophet's Mosque in the time of Walid ibn Abdul Malik, a pentagonal wall was erected around the Noble Chamber, and a portion of the Prophet's Rawdah was included within this enclosure.

In the Mamluk period, a wooden enclosure was constructed around the chamber of Aisha, and the house of Lady Fatimah was also placed inside this enclosure. In this way, a part of the Prophet's Rawdah and the house of Lady Fatimah became part of the space now referred to as the Noble Chamber. The area of the Noble Chamber, including these additions, is 240 square meters (16 meters in length and 15 meters in width), and a golden grille has been installed around it.
