    The Maqame Ebrahim refers to the stone on which Ebrahim (upon him be peace) stood on while he was building the Ka’bah. As Ismail (upon him be peace) passed stones to Ebrahim (upon him be peace), and as Ebrahim (upon him be peace) continued laying them in place the Maqame Ebrahim miraculously continued rising higher and higher as the walls rose. Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) caused the trace of his footprints to remain on the stone as a reminder to the believers among his descendants. It has been reported from Sa’eed bin Jubair (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) said: “The stone is the station of Ebrahim. Allah made it soft and made it a mercy. Ebrahim would stand on it and Ismail would hand the stones up to him.” [Muthir Al-Gharam] Ebrahim and Ismail (upon them be peace) used to mention the following Quranic verse as they were constructing the Holy Ka’bah,“Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us: for you are the All-Hearing, The All-Knowing.” [2:127] Ebrahim (upon him be peace) constructed the Ka’bah using rocks from five mountains; Hira, Thubayr, Labnaan, Toor and Jabalul Khayr. Toor Seena (Mount Sinai) is actually situated in the eastern desert of Egypt.

    It has been reported from Sa’eed bin Jubair (رضي الله عنه) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The stone is the station of Ebrahim. Allah made it soft and made it a mercy. Ebrahim would stand on it and Ismail would hand the stones up to him.” [Muthir Al-Gharam] Umar (رضي الله عنه) reports that Allah (ﷻ) fulfilled three wishes that he had. One of these was his proposal to the Prophet (ﷺ) that the Maqame Ebrahim should be made a place for performing salah (prayer). Allah (ﷻ) revealed the following verse in the Quran in Surah al-Baqarah: “Take the Maqam of Ebrahim as a place of salah (a place behind which you perform two rakahs of salah after Tawaf)” [2:125]

    The Maqām Ibrāhīm (Arabic: مَقَام إِبْرَاهِيْم, lit. 'Station of Abraham') is a small square stone associated with Hazrat Ibrahim & Hazrat Ismail and their building of the Kaaba in what is now the Great Mosque of Mecca. According to Islamic beliefs, the imprint on the stone came from Hazrat Ibrahim's feet. According to one tradition it appeared when Ibrahim stood on the stone while building the Kaaba; when the walls became too high, Ibrahim stood on the maqām, which miraculously rose up to let him continue building and also miraculously went down in order to allow Ismail to hand him stones. The stone inside the casing is square shaped and measures 40 cm (16 in) in length and width, and 20 cm (7.9 in) in height. It used to be enclosed by a structure called the Maqsurat Ibrahim which was covered by a sitara: an ornamental, embroidered curtain that was replaced annually. Currently it is placed inside a golden-metal enclosure. The outer casing has changed a number of times over the years; historic photographs show that the arch of the Banu Shaybah Gate stood next to it.

    How can one talk ill about the best place that Allah has bestowed to mankind on this earth? Even when the Maajidil Haram building surrounding the Maqam Ibrahim and Ka'aba is modernised, the essence of being in the holiest place, the Old Sanctuary (البيت العتيق) where the Prophet Muhammad stood in front of the Ka'aba is strongly present. Every person who has ever set foot here will always have the urge and longing to be here again and again, if not for hajj, umrah. May Allah preserve His noble house and us, the Muslim ummah of the End of the Time. آمين.

    These are the best places with God, and it is the blessed spot. This is the second qiblah for Muslims after Al-Aqsa Mosque. Ask God to bless me so that I can visit her

    👉The Maqam e Ibrahim, also known as the Station of prophet Ibrahim AS, is a historical and religious site located near the Kaaba in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. 👉We Muslims believed this to be the spot where the Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) stood while building the Kaaba with his son Prophet Ismael (PBUH). 👉The Maqam e Ibrahim is a small, simple structure that marks the location of the stone on which Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) stood. 👉For many Muslims, seeing the Maqam e Ibrahim is a deeply spiritual and meaningful experience. It is a powerful reminder of the Prophet Ibrahim's (peace be upon him) strong faith and devotion to God. 👉As part of Umrah condition, the worshippers will offer the prayers and make du'a (supplications) behind the Maqam e Ibrahim, seeking blessings and guidance from God after performing the Tawaaf. 👉The Maqam e Ibrahim is also an important stop during the Hajj pilgrimage. Pilgrims will often pause at the Maqam e Ibrahim to offer prayers and make supplications before continuing on with the Hajj rituals. 👉The Maqam e Ibrahim is a powerful reminder of the strong faith and devotion of the Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and his role in the history of Islam.

    The Maqām Ibrāhīm is a small square stone associated with Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ishmael) and their building of the Kaaba in what is now the Great Mosque of Mecca in the Hejazi region of Saudi Arabia. According to Islamic tradition, the imprint on the stone came from Abraham's feet. According to one tradition, it appeared when Ibrahim stood on the stone while building the Kaaba; when the walls became too high, Ibrahim stood on the maqām, which miraculously rose up to let him continue building and also miraculously went down in order to allow Ismail to hand him stones. Other traditions held that the footprint appeared when the wife of Ismail washed Ibrahim's head, or alternatively when Ibrahim stood atop it in order to summon the people to perform the pilgrimage to Mecca. The stone inside the casing is square shaped and measures 40 cm (16 in) in length and width, and 20 cm (7.9 in) in height. It used to be enclosed by a structure called the Maqsurat Ibrahim which was covered by a sitara: an ornamental, embroidered curtain that was replaced annually. Currently[when?] it is placed inside a golden-metal enclosure. The outer casing has changed a number of times over the years; historic photographs show that the arch of the Banu Shaybah Gate stood next to it.

    Makam Ibrahim, also known as the Station of Ibrahim, holds a special place in the hearts of Muslims as a site of historical and spiritual significance. Situated near the Kaaba within Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, it is believed to be the place where Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) stood while constructing the Kaaba. The rock on which Prophet Ibrahim stood is believed to bear his footprints, a reminder of his unwavering faith and dedication to God. Muslims performing the Tawaf (circumambulation) around the Kaaba often include Makam Ibrahim in their circuit, offering prayers and reflecting on the symbolism of Ibrahim's actions.

    -Unfortunately, there are some people who bless and wipe the glass of the shrine of the Prophet Ibrahim, and this is not from Islam nor from the Sunnah..! 👎🏻 +But it is good that the place is preserved within the glass.👍🏻 +It is good that the employees and security men warn people not to bless or wipe the glass, and ask them to move and move away, and also to allow others to pass.👍🏻

    If you hav completed the tawaf, then you can go behind maqam ibrahim for sunna salah. 2 rokaat. We need to compete to get the space for pray and salah. There is occasion when some askar(militer) will guide you where you can pray/salah.

    if it were possible to rate it beyond 5 stars, I would have done it, this is literally beyond perfection. The sight of comfort, sooth, relaxation and peace. Literally, a Heaven on earth. It has a divine blessing upon and such is the aura of this place that it captivates your soul. This is Kabah and maqam e ibrahim in single picture.
