Place of Khandaq Battle and other places

The original trenches that survived through the ages were covered up and now all we see is a parking lot over the area. What remain, though how long no one knows, are 3 out of the 7 masajid where the Prophet s.a.w., and his companions erected their tents. There they waited for 40 days on the advice of Hazrat Salman Farsi. The logic behind it was that these trenches were an innovation in Arabia. No one had ever done it that way before. The suggestion was of Hazrat Salman Farsi. This proved to be the winning move in this battle and the Muslims defended themselves and their territory with ease.

Of the 7 initial masajid built at the places where the tents stood, only those built at the places of the Prophet, s.a.w., Hazrat Umar and Hazrat Ali, r.a., remain. The rest have been brought down. Again, apparently in an attempt to stem the unislamic practices held there...

This here is the Masjid Fatah. The place of the tent of the Prophet, s.a.w.


The Garden of Hazrat Uthman, r.a.



There was only one sweet water well in Madina, which was under the control of a Jew. Hazrat Uthman Ghani, r.a., bought half the well from him. They decided on set days and on the days of Hazrat Uthman r.a., there was long line of people waiting to fill water and somehow the water was also full to the brim of the well. Moreover, the filling of water was free of cost for all people of all religions. The days of the Jew saw the water receding to the bottom and not a soul in sight, to use it..
The area is now within a boundry and hold the well, which we are told still bubbles, the residential area of Hazrat Uthman, r.a., his masjid and his date garden. The whole area is off limits to the public.

Khaaq-e-shifa'a



This area hides beneath it a sacred sand. It was during one of the battles that the wounded Companions were wounded and the bleeding could not be stopped, nor the wounds healed. The Prophet s.a.w., took a handful of this sand and told them to cover their wounds with it. The wounds healed completely...

Here again, the authorities have seen it their duty to cover the place with normal sand and, to be absolutely sure that no one gets any benefit from it, have created gutters and filth water pipelines...

I dont think I want to say anything else on the matter...


The Well and Housing of Hazrat Salma Farsi



Here too the area has been wired in and rubbish thrown in... However the well is quite clearly to be seen..
