The holy compartment contains "The Noble Prophetic Room".The door lock of the holy compartment is engraved on both sides with the following Arabic poem:-
He is the Beloved, whose intercession is hoped, for every horror that intrudes.
Far be it; the requester will be deprived of his honor, nor the neighbor will return from him without respect.

It is also called Khawkha of Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him. It is the window that has not been closed for more than 1,400 years, according to the condition of the Mother of the Believers, Hafsa, may Allah be pleased with her. This was because when our master Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, wanted to expand the Prophet’s Mosque, after becoming tight for the worshipers, he asked his daughter Hafsa, may Allah be pleased with her, to demolish her room located south of the honorable compartment, so she refused and insisted not to leave her room. Then she gave in to her father’s opinion of expanding, so he promised her another house, which is the house of Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, located in the location of the southern corridor now, so she stipulated that they open a small window for it that would remain open permanently, so this window was (the promise). It leads from Hafsa’s house to the honorable compartment to feel close to the beloved prophet, may blessings and peace be upon him, and that window was not been closed since that time.

Pillar of the bed
It is located to the east of the Pillar of Repentance, it is attached to the window overlooking the Holy Rawdah. It was the place of the Prophet’s i'tikaaf (seclusion), for he had a bed of palm fronds, and he was placed at this pillar, as well as he had a pillow that was thrown for him, so he would lie on his bed at this pillar.
O the best of who’s bones were buried in the bottom,
Thus with the grace of them, valleys and hills became good.
This mihrab (niche) was attributed to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. Because it was located near the place where the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, used to pray, as the mihrab was not built by a structure that would distinguish it from the rest of the Prophet’s Mosque, but rather the Prophet continued to stand in this place leading Muslims and made the wall of the Mosque as a barrier during the prayer until his death. This matter continued as it was until Omar bin Abdul Aziz, may God have mercy on him, built the mihrab when he was ruler of Medina in the succession of Al-Walid bin Abdul Malik, may God have mercy on him, by order of him in 88-91 AH.
Al-Samhoudi, may God have mercy on him, said: “The mosque did not have a niche during his reign, nor during the era of the caliphs after the Prophet may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, until Omar bin Abdul Aziz, may God have mercy on him, built the mihrab and took precautions in its affairs during Al-Walid era.
Al-Bujairami Al-Shafi’i, may God have mercy on him, said: “In the Prophet’s time, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, and the caliphs after him - until the end of the first hundred years - there was no mihrab, but the mihrabs were created in the first of the second hundred of the Hijra, and the mihrab that now exists is from the building of al-Ashraf Qaitbay, where he built it in the year: 888 AH), and this is indicated by the inscription on the back of the mihrab in the Mamluki thuluth script.
During the reign of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Fahd bin Abdul Aziz, may God have mercy on him, it was completely renovated, and that was in (1404 AH) as stipulated in the last three lines of this painting written in Thuluth script “And after disintegration and cracks occurred in the mosaics and marble, His Majesty King Fahd bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud, may God bless him, ordered to refurb the mihran, and that was in the year four hundred and four”.
My soul is the redemption of a grave you inhabit
Where chastity and the generosity and kindness.
Khokhat Abi Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him
The khokha is a small door like a big window between two houses, on which a door is erected. Khokhat Abi Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him, is the door between his house and the Prophet’s Mosque in the west of the mosque, after the last pillar of the mosque’s boundary.
The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, ordered that it remain open to the mosque in his sermon shortly before his death in the year 11 AH, where Abu Saeed al-Khudri narrated, saying, may God be pleased with him: that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, sat on the pulpit and said: “A slave has been given the choice, either
God gave him whatever he wishes of the blessings of this world, or what God has, so he chose what God has, then Abu Bakr cried and said: We loved you with our fathers and mothers, so we surprised by him, and people said: Look at this sheikh, The Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, was the choice, and Abu Bakr was the most aware of it among us, and the Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, said:
The most person that I am grateful to him for his accompany and money is Abu Bakr, and if I were to choose a dear companion form my nation, I would have taken Abu Bakr, except the companionship of Islam. No Khokha (a small door like a big window between two houses) will remain in the mosque except Abi Bakr’s Khokhah”.
Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet
O you who believe, pray on him.

The Sulaymani mihrab is located to the right of the stander in the Prophet's mihrab at the third pillar west of the pulpit, built in the second half of the ninth century AH, built by Tugan Sheikh in the year 860 AH, renewed by Sultan Suleiman Khan, known as Qanuni in (948 AH) and decorated with white and black marble, and was famous for the mihrab of Sulaymani during the era of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent, may God have mercy on him - one of the Sultans of the Ottoman Empire.

The sacred chamber, (the honorable confrontation): It is the house where our master the Messenger of Allah lived in his life, and his house and his lodgment place in his death, his holy face (pbuh) is heading to Kaaba in Mecca and his honorable head is in the direction of the Holy Rawda. Next to his grave is the grave of Sayyidna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq which is a little bit behind, and next to it is the grave of Sayyidna Umar Bin al-Khattab which is also a little bit behind. The holy chamber is surrounded by a five-sided wall built on four pillars, on these pillars was built a square dome from the bottom octagonal from the top, armed with plates of lead, known as Al-Fayhaa dome, then painted green, and became known as the Green Dome.
O Allah be pleased with the authority of Abu Bakr, Omar, Othman, Ali, Talha and Al-Zubayr.
The place where one stands to salute Umar ibn Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him.
The place where one stands to salute Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him.
And his relatives, companions and people of glory as a whole, and all their kind followers forever.
Therefore his tireless praise shall never cease to be my task
and love of him sustains me in the presence of the Lord of the Throne.
Saad, Saeed, Abdul Rahman bin Auf and Abu Ubaidah bin Jarrah, may God be pleased with them all.

Upon him the purest of endless blessings without cease
together with greetings that cannot be stemmed nor counted
The place where one stands to salute the Prophet (peace be upon him).
The honorable pulpit, the platform of the Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, and grant him peace:
The first pulpit set up for the Messenger in the Prophet’s Mosque was from the mud, and he was sitting on it for those who do not know him to recognize him. And he was preaching over it for Friday prayers and some other occasions, and then its architecture continued over the centuries and times. It is currently made of pure alabaster, decorated with Islamic motifs, engraved with very creative inscriptions, and painted with gold water.
The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said, “What is between my house and my pulpit is a garden of paradise and my pulpit on my basin.” The hadith was narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him.
O the best of who’s bones were buried at the bottom,
Thus with the grace of them, valleys and hills became good.
Oh Allah, respond to us may with virtue of yours every sin will be forgiven. Pray to our master the Prophet Muhammad, and his family and companions, every once in a while.
My soul is the redemption of a grave you inhabit
Where chastity and the generosity and kindness.

The pillar of Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, is the third from the niche, the third from the grave, and the third from the Qiblah. It is also known as al-Muhajireen pillar, and al-Qur’ah pillar.
As for calling it al-Qur’ah, when al-Tabarani narrated it in al-Awsat on the authority of Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, she said: The Prophet, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, said: ((There is a spot in the mosque before this pillar, if people knew, they would be competing on it, and the people looked at that pillar, they saw a group of the Companions and the sons of the Muhajireen, beside the pillar)).
As for calling it Aisha’s pillar, due to what was narrated that Aisha told Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr about the virtue of that pillar, and he rose up and prayed near to that pillar, thus people thought that Aisha told him that it was that pillar, so it was called Aisha’s pillar.
The Gate of Mercy
A door from the west side of the Prophet’s Mosque. It was known as Bab Atikah, a woman from Mecca, the daughter of Zaid bin Omar, from the Uday bin Kaab tribe, converted to Islam and immigrated to Medina, and the door was named after her because it was in front of her house, as it was known as Bab al-Souq because it led to the market.
Its name refers to the door of mercy as it came in Sahih al-Bukhari that a man entered the mosque asking the Messenger, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, pray the God to send rain, and the sky rained for seven days. Then he entered on the second Friday asking for the rain to be ceased for fear of drowning, and the clouds cleared, and this was considered a mercy for the worshipers, so it was called the Gate of Mercy.

O you who stand on the Station of Praise, singled out
by the One Who is Single, Who is not begotten and does not beget.
O you from whose fingers rivers burst forth
so that he quenched the thirst of the numerous army.
The pillar of repentance
It is the fourth pillar from the pulpit, the second from the grave, and the third from the qiblah, and it is also known as the pillar of Abu Lubaba, which is Rafaa bin Abdul Mundhir, may Allah be pleased with him, one of the leading members of the Banu Aws. When Banu Qurayza consulted him - and he was their ally – if they would descend on the judgment of the Messenger of God, and grant him peace, he said: Yes, and he pointed with his hand to his throat -meaning slaughtering-. Abu Lubaba said: I swear by God, as soon as I moved my feet I knew that I had betrayed God and His Messenger.
And there was revealed in him the saying of the truth, may He be glorified and exalted: (O those who believe, do not betray God and the Messenger, and betray your trusts while you know) Surat Al-Anfal verse no. (27). He did not return to the Prophet, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, but went to the mosque, and tied himself to a stump in the position of the repentance pillar –now-, and swore that he will not release himself and no one will release him until the Messenger of God, untie him, or his repentance comes from the God. When the Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, was reported his news, he said: As for if he came to me, I would have prayed God to forgive him. As for what he did, I would not be the one who releases him from his place, until God repents him, God sent down his repentance to the Messenger of God, in the house of Umm Salamah, may God be pleased with her, and she said: What do you laugh? He said: Abu Lubaba has been repented. She said: O Messenger of God, should I give him good tidings? He said yes if you like. So she stood at the door of her room, then she said: O Abu Lubaba, preach good news for God has repented to you, then the muslims wanted to release him, he said: No, by God, until the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, be the one who releases me with his hand, and when Messenger of God passed him while he was going to Fajr prayer, he released him and that is why it was called (The Pillar of Repentance).
The door of the Prophet
It is called Aisha’s door, and the door of delegations. It is the door facing the Holy Rawdah.
Pillar of the Guards.
It is located behind the pillar of the bed from the north side: it is opposite the khokha that the Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, used to leave if he was in Aisha’s house, may God be pleased with her, to the holy Rawdah for prayer, as it is called “the Pillar of Ali bin Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him, because He sits there, guarding the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace.
The row of pillars showing the boundary of the Mosque of the Prophet, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, from the west side.
Pillar of Delegates
It is located behind the guard column from the north, and the Messenger, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, used to sit there to meet the delegations of Arabs coming to him, and it was also known as the necklace council, because the elite of the Companions and their virtues are sitting there.

When Banu Qurayza consulted him - and he was their ally – if they would descend on the judgment of the Messenger of God, and grant him peace, he said: Yes, and he pointed with his hand to his throat -meaning slaughtering-. Abu Lubaba said: I swear by God, as soon as I moved my feet I knew that I had betrayed God and His Messenger.
And there was revealed in him the saying of the truth, may He be glorified and exalted: (O those who believe, do not betray God and the Messenger, and betray your trusts while you know) Surat Al-Anfal verse no. (27). He did not return to the Prophet, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, but went to the mosque, and tied himself to a stump in the position of the repentance pillar –now-, and swore that he will not release himself and no one will release him until the Messenger of God, untie him, or his repentance comes from the God. When the Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, was reported his news, he said: As for if he came to me, I would have prayed God to forgive him. As for what he did, I would not be the one who releases him from his place, until God repents him, God sent down his repentance to the Messenger of God, in the house of Umm Salamah, may God be pleased with her, and she said: What do you laugh? He said: Abu Lubaba has been repented. She said: O Messenger of God, should I give him good tidings? He said yes if you like. So she stood at the door of her room, then she said: O Abu Lubaba, preach good news for God has repented to you, then the muslims wanted to release him, he said: No, by God, until the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, be the one who releases me with his hand, and when Messenger of God passed him while he was going to Fajr prayer, he released him and that is why it was called (The Pillar of Repentance).
The place where one stands to salute Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him.
O you from whose fingers rivers burst forth
so that he quenched the thirst of the numerous army.
O you who stand on the Station of Praise, singled out
by the One Who is Single, Who is not begotten and does not beget.
The door of the Prophet
It is called Aisha’s door, and the door of delegations. It is the door facing the Holy Rawdah.
Pillar of Delegates
It is located behind the guard column from the north, and the Messenger, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, used to sit there to meet the delegations of Arabs coming to him, and it was also known as the necklace council, because the elite of the Companions and their virtues are sitting there.
Khokhat Abi Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him
The khokha is a small door like a big window between two houses, on which a door is erected. Khokhat Abi Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him, is the door between his house and the Prophet’s Mosque in the west of the mosque, after the last pillar of the mosque’s boundary.
The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, ordered that it remain open to the mosque in his sermon shortly before his death in the year 11 AH, where Abu Saeed al-Khudri narrated, saying, may God be pleased with him: that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, sat on the pulpit and said: “A slave has been given the choice, either
God gave him whatever he wishes of the blessings of this world, or what God has, so he chose what God has, then Abu Bakr cried and said: We loved you with our fathers and mothers, so we surprised by him, and people said: Look at this sheikh, The Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, was the choice, and Abu Bakr was the most aware of it among us, and the Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, said:
The most person that I am grateful to him for his accompany and money is Abu Bakr, and if I were to choose a dear companion form my nation, I would have taken Abu Bakr, except the companionship of Islam. No Khokha (a small door like a big window between two houses) will remain in the mosque except Abi Bakr’s Khokhah”.
Pillar of the Guards
It is located behind the pillar of the bed from the north side: it is opposite the khokha that the Messenger of God, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, used to leave if he was in Aisha’s house, may God be pleased with her, to the holy Rawdah for prayer, as it is called “the Pillar of Ali bin Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him, because He sits there, guarding the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace.
O the best of who’s bones were buried at the bottom,
Thus with the grace of them, valleys and hills became good.

The Gate of Mercy
A door from the west side of the Prophet’s Mosque. It was known as Bab Atikah, a woman from Mecca, the daughter of Zaid bin Omar, from the Uday bin Kaab tribe, converted to Islam and immigrated to Medina, and the door was named after her because it was in front of her house, as it was known as Bab al-Souq because it led to the market.
Its name refers to the door of mercy as it came in Sahih al-Bukhari that a man entered the mosque asking the Messenger, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, pray the God to send rain, and the sky rained for seven days. Then he entered on the second Friday asking for the rain to be ceased for fear of drowning, and the clouds cleared, and this was considered a mercy for the worshipers, so it was called the Gate of Mercy.

The Noble Prophet's Mihrab (niche)
It is the place where the Prophet, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, used to lead Muslims to pray.
The pillar of Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, is the third from the niche, the third from the grave, and the third from the Qiblah. It is also known as al-Muhajireen pillar, and al-Qur’ah pillar.
As for calling it al-Qur’ah, when al-Tabarani narrated it in al-Awsat on the authority of Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, she said: The Prophet, Peace and Blessing be Upon him, said: ((There is a spot in the mosque before this pillar, if people knew, they would be competing on it, and the people looked at that pillar, they saw a group of the Companions and the sons of the Muhajireen, beside the pillar)).
As for calling it Aisha’s pillar, due to what was narrated that Aisha told Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr about the virtue of that pillar, and he rose up and prayed near to that pillar, thus people thought that Aisha told him that it was that pillar, so it was called Aisha’s pillar.
