==The mosques of Musalla in Minakhah==
==The Mosques of Al-Manakha==
The mosques of Musalla in Minakhah were not built during the time of the Prophet and the caliphs. The construction of these mosques took place for the first time during the reign of Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz, the governor of Medina.<ref>Samhūdī,  ''Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā'', vol. 3, p. 122.</ref>
The mosques in Al-Manakha, associated with the Prophet Muhammad (S), were not established during his lifetime or that of the [[Caliphs]]. These mosques were first constructed during the governorship of [[Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz]], the ruler of [[Medina]]. <ref>Samhūdī,  ''Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā'', vol. 3, p. 122.</ref>
During his time, many of the Prophet's Musalla were transformed into mosques. The ancient mosques built in the Musalla  area include three mosques: [[Ghamama Mosque]], [[Mosque of Ali ibn Abi Talib]], and [[Mosque of Abu Bakr]].<ref>Samhūdī,  ''Wafāʾ al-wafā bi akhbār dar al-Muṣṭafā'', vol. 3, p. 122-123.</ref>
DDuring his tenure, many of the Prophet's prayer sites were converted into mosques.
In the ninth century, within the same vicinity, [[a mosque named after Umar ibn Khattab]] was also constructed. Additionally, in the fifteenth century, another mosque in mosque of Musalla was built, named [[Mosque of Uthman]].<ref>ʿAbdu-l Ghanī,  ''Al-Masājid al-Atharīyya fī al- madīna al-munawwara'', p. 223.</ref>
 
Some researchers have studied the mosque called [[Masjid al-Qashla]].<ref>Khiyārī, ''Tārīkh maʿālimal-madīna al-munawwara qadīman wa ḥadīthan'', p. 148.</ref>
The notable early mosques built in the Al-Manakha area include:
And the mosque named [[Masjid al-Bilal]] in Minakhah.<ref>Khiyārī, ''Tārīkh maʿālimal-madīna al-munawwara qadīman wa ḥadīthan'', p. 148.</ref>
 
They have also considered it as one of the mosques in the Prophet's Musalla  in Minakhah.

The Mosque of Masjid al- Musalla or Ghamama is built in a location where the Prophet <small>(PBUH)</small> used to perform prayers in the last years of his life.<ref>ʿAbdu-l Ghanī, ''Al-Masājid al-Atharīyya fī al- madīna al-munawwara'', p. 223.</ref>

In the 9th century AH, a mosque named [[Masjid Umar ibn al-Khattab]] was also constructed within the same vicinity. Additionally, in the 15th century AH, another mosque called [[Masjid Uthman]] was built in the area.<ref>ʿAbdu-l Ghanī,  ''Al-Masājid al-Atharīyya fī al- madīna al-Munawwara'', p. 223.</ref>
ome scholars also include Masjid al-Qashla and Masjid Bilal in Al-Manakha as significant sites where the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is believed to have performed prayers. These mosques are considered important due to their historical connection to the early Islamic period, although the primary sources and evidence for these associations may vary. [[Masjid al-Qashla]], <ref>Khiyārī, ''Tārīkh maʿālimal-madīna al-munawwara qadīman wa ḥadīthan'', p. 148.</ref>
known for its historical architecture and relevance, and [[Masjid Bilal]]<ref>Khiyārī, ''Tārīkh maʿālimal-madīna al-Munawwara qadīman wa ḥadīthan'', p. 148.</ref>
named after the esteemed companion [[Bilal ibn Rabah]], are both seen as part of the broader historical and religious landscape of [[Al-Manakha]]. Their inclusion in discussions about the Prophet’s prayer sites reflects ongoing scholarly efforts to document and preserve the rich heritage of early Islamic worship practices.
