Detailed itinerary
1
Though Imam Bukhari is buried in Uzbekistan, some locations in Madinah are associated with his stay or studies. Pilgrims often visit to honor his contribution to Hadith sciences, particularly his compilation Sahih Bukhari.
2
A significant battlefield where the second major battle of Islam—the Battle of Uhud—took place.
Pilgrims visit the site, including the graves of the 70 martyrs, especially Sayyiduna Hamza (RA), the uncle of the Prophet ﷺ and Musab Bin Umair
Also can climb Mount RUmah where 50 Archers were appointed.
3
The Place of Ghazwa Khandaq (Battle of Trench)
Masjid Fatah : One of the Seven Mosques linked to the Battle of the Trench (Ghazwa-e-Khandaq). It is believed that the Prophet ﷺ made du‘a for victory here, and Allah granted success against the confederate forces.
4
Known as the Mosque of Two Qiblas, it marks the place where the Qibla (direction of prayer) was changed from Masjid Al-Aqsa (Jerusalem) to Masjid Al-Haram (Makkah) during a congregational prayer led by the Prophet ﷺ.
5
Located between Quba and Madinah, it is where the Prophet ﷺ led the first Friday (Jummah) prayer after migrating from Makkah. It commemorates the start of community worship in Madinah.
6
The first mosque built in Islam by the Prophet ﷺ upon his arrival in Madinah. Praying here is highly rewarding — praying Two Rakah Nafil here equals the reward of an Umrah, as per authentic Hadith.
7
A historical well from where the Prophet ﷺ drank water and performed wudu. Some narrations mention that he wished to be bathed with this water after his passing. It holds deep sentimental and historical value.
8
Linked to Salman Al-Farsi (RA), a companion of Persian origin who suggested the digging of the trench during the Battle of Khandaq. The garden and well reflect his personal sacrifices and love for Islam.
