Jannat -ul- Baqqi

The most pious and spiritual grave yard of the world is called, "Jannat-ul-Baqqi" where a number of companions (RA), wives, daughters and other family members of Prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam are lying to rest. In the time of Prophet sallalla ho allihi wasalam live hood, this grave yard was thought to be out side the Madina city but after the vast extension,now it has now come just adjacent to Masjid-e-Nabvi. If you come out from Masjid-e-Nabvi, through Baqqi Gate, or Jibrael (AH) Gate you will see few yards ahead a boundary wall at a little height. This is JANNAT -UL -BAQQI'S wall. Stairs are made to reach at the height.



Men can visit this grave yard going inside but ladies are not allowed even to go up near the wall of the graveyard. Ladies must present their Salaam outside Baqqi. Baqqi is very clean and tidy grave yard. No bush and tree is there. All the graves are made of mud. No concrete constructions over the graves are made. Pavement and passages are made for easy walking but there is no sign over the graves have been given to know the name of
the buried personality. Some guides (Moaleems) tell about graves. Squared boundary of half feet high has been built around all prominent graves.

People must visit this grave yard with great respect as many great personalities are lying to rest here.

When you enter inside "Baqqi", a few feet ahead, slightly on your right you will see the graves of the daughters of Prophet sallalla ho allihi wasalam.Three daughters named Syeda Umm-e-Kulsoom, Syeda Ruqiya and Syeda Zainab RaddiAllah ho ta'ala anhuma are buried here.

Few steps ahead you may find nine graves of the wives of Prophet (S. A. W.) including Syeda Ayesha Radi Allah ho talla anha.These graves are combined.

After entering in baqqi cemetery , if you take left turn and come to the corner near boundary wall you will find the grave of the closest aunt of Prophet (S. A. W.) Syeda Safia (RA). If you walk straight you will find the grave of Prophet's (S.A.W) little son Syedna Ibrahim (RA) . This is smaller grave in size and pilgrim may recognize it easily.

If you take right turn just entering to Jannat-ul-Baqi you will find the grave of prophet sallalla ho allihi wasalams' grand son Syedna Hasan (RA).He is buried alongwith other family members of the prophet sallallaho allihi wasalam.

The graves of Syedna Abbas (uncle of prophet) and other imams like Syedna Baqar R.A and Jafar sadiq R.A are also situated beside the grave of Syedna Hasan radiAllah ho talla anho. The beloved daughter of prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam and the lady of Janna (Heaven) "Fatima -ul-Zuhra (RA)"is also lying rest just adjacent to these graves.

In the last, almost crossing whole the grave yard, you may find the grave of the most respectable personality of this grave yard, "Syedna Usman (RA)". Slightly in the left, a little before the grave of Syedna Usman RaddiAllah ho talla Anho, there is a grave of "Syeda Haleema (RA)" who fed Prophet (S. A. W.), when he was infant.
