One of the holy places in the mosque, is the pulpit of God's Messenger –peace be upon him and his descendants. It is said that the Messenger, at first, lectured while leaning against a date tree. One of his comrades suggested building a pulpit so that God's Messenger –peace be upon him and his descendants– sat on it so that all of people see him and he does not get tired of standing. This pulpit had three stairs. The pulpit of God's Messenger –peace be upon him and his descendants– has been re-constructed eight times and each time it has been put on its previous place. | |||
The existing pulpit is the one that King Morad Uthmani ordered to be built and set. This pulpit has twelve stairs and it is valuable artistic achievement. | The existing pulpit is the one that King Morad Uthmani ordered to be built and set.

The prayer –arch was built where God's Messenger – peace be upon him and his descendants – said his prayers and there is no doubt that the place of his prayers is the very existing prayer –arch. When Valid had the mosque development and Omar Ibn Abdulaziz developed it, a prayer –arch was built in the place of his prayers.
