'''Pillars of the Masjid al-Nabi''' are the large number of pillars that some of them, like the pillar of Repentance, Tahajjud, Hars, and Compassion, existed in the original structure of the mosque during the time of the Prophet Muhammad (s), and for this reason, they are of great significance to Muslims. Although [[Masjid al-Nabī|the Mosque of the Prophet]] has been rebuilt several times, the placement of these pillars has not changed in the mosque's reconstructions. These pillars were last rebuilt and distinguished from the other pillars of the mosque during the reign of Abdulmajid I, the Ottoman Sultan, with a change in color. | |||
