-'''Tomb of Khadija<small>(S)</small>''', the resting place of Khadija, the daughter of Khuwaylid and the wife of Prophet Muhammad <small>(PBUH)</small>, is located in the [[cemetery of Abu Talib]] ([[Jannat al-Mu'lla]] or Hajun) in [[Mecca]].
+'''The Grave of Lady Khadijah (AS)<small>(S)</small>''', The grave of Lady Khadijah (S), daughter of Khuwaylid and wife of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), is situated in the Abu Talib cemetery, also known as Jannat al-Mu'alla or Hujun, in Mecca. Historical accounts reveal that Khadijah's (S) body was interred in the Hujun area of this cemetery. However, the exact location of her grave remained unidentified until the 8th century AH (14th century CE).
+In the early 8th century AH, a specific site within the Ma'ala cemetery in Mecca was designated as the resting place of Lady Khadijah (S). At this location, a gravestone was erected to honor her memory. Over time, a mausoleum was constructed at the site. This mausoleum, which included a prominent dome, was subject to several modifications and reconstructions.
+The original mausoleum was demolished in 1218 AH by the Wahhabis. It was subsequently rebuilt but faced destruction once more in 1343 AH with the establishment of the Saudi state. Despite these events, the grave of Lady Khadijah (S) remains a site of historical and religious significance, reflecting the challenges faced in preserving sacred sites in Islamic history.
-Historical sources mention the burial of Khadija <small>(A.S)</small> in Hajun, but the exact location of her grave was not known until the first half of the eighth century of Hijra/629. From the mid-8th century of Hijra, a location in the Mu'lla cemetery in Mecca was identified as the burial place of Hazrat Khadijah, and a tombstone was erected for her. Later, a tall dome was constructed over the shrine in the later centuries. The shrine was demolished in 1218/1803-4 by the Wahhabis but was later reconstructed. However, it was demolished again in 1343/1924-5 with the establishment of the Saudi government.
