    Excellent Masjid. History was very well explained by Maroof ul Ghani bhai It was the place where Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him did Ba'iah 1st and 2nd. After 2nd Uqba Ba'iah Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him migrated from Makkah to Madinah. In first Ba'iah only 6 Ansars were present and in 2nd 75 Ansars did Ba'iah on Prophet's hand.

    1... No one is perfect. Even the most confident people have insecurities. At some point in of our lives, we may feel we lack something. That is reality. We must try to live as per our capability.

    The name of masjid is after the Pledge (Baiah) between Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) and the Ansar of Madinah. It is just after the jamarat towards Haram in Mina. I have taken the snap from top of the hill. You can see the edge of the masjid appearing in the snap.

    A small but impressive mosque with a rich history . What it lacks in esthetics , it makes up for in historical significance. The mosque is "basic" dirt floor , open roof , and small cabinets with musallahs to pray on.
