    It's a beautiful, well planned & managed Masjid near Madina. This Masjid is Hadood e Meqat for those who are coming from Madina Tayyiba to Makkah. People wear Ehram for Umerah from this Masjid. There are nice arrangements for wuzu & bath. It's approximately 18 km from Madina.

    If you are coming from Madinah and going for Umrah this is the miqaat place where you can wear Ihram and offer prayers. 30 min drive from Haram. Facilities like bath room, toilets, changing rooms, tea shop, ihram and bag shop, mosque, separate facilities for women are all available. Mosque is very beautiful.

    Also knwns as Masjid Bir Ali, this Dhulhulaifah Mosque is one of the best architecture I've ever seen. Located 11km away from Madinah, this mosque is a Miqat point for ppl frm Madinah whos going to Mekah to perform umrah/hajj. It has bathrooms to take shower and rooms for mens to change to ihram. The first time i stepped foot in this mosque i was in awe with the greens in the compound. The plants and kurma trees here totally diff frm outside of the compound. And to my surprised, they plant thai basil all around the garden, and sangat2 subur pokoknya. Can u imagine, cream buildings with high walls and pillars, blue sky, green plants.. 😍 Whats not to like?!!

    Masha Allah is a very beautiful environment. The authorities have done a lot for the convenience of the incoming worshipers, of which I like the locker arrangement for keeping the bags the best. Thanks to the mosque authorities for making such a beautiful arrangement.

    Miqat for Umrah. Neat and clean mosque, which is always crowded. Washrooms are clean, People usually wear irham there, but i would suggest wearing it at your hotel it will save up a lot of time. Just visit , pray your nafil, then leave for makkah directly.

    Dhul-Hulayfah Mosque, also known as Masjid al-Shajarah, is the designated miqat for those entering into the state of Ihram for Umrah or Hajj from Medina. It is situated about 9 kilometers from the city center of Medina. As an Umrah or Hajj pilgrim departing from Madinah, Dzul Khulaifa is one of the designated miqat points for you. It's the location where you should enter into the state of Ihram if you haven't already done so in Madinah. This is a necessary step before proceeding to perform Umrah or Hajj.

  • 5/5 Moe A. 6 months ago on Google
    Mashallah it is amazing. I highly recommend visiting it. It is one of the most famous places in the madeena. I recommend taking a shower at the hotel and a quick rinse at the Miqat since it might be busy so you can get the job done faster. I recommend having the app Careem through your trip because you can have a ride from anywhere. Please note that Careem changes the price at the end of your trip since they add taxes and charge for any extra time than the app expected to have. So even if the driver takes longer to get to the destination and it's not your fault, they would still change you for extra. But generally speaking, the trips with this app are very affordable. Please pray for me and the rest of Muslims.

    Signs need to be little more clear and changing areas required some serious attention, toilets are also required proper cleaning

  • 5/5 Aman H. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the place where you change your ehraam from madina to makkah for umrah. Nice place with good facilities. On the other end, you can get some snacks too.

    A miqat place, or the place from which one must enter the state of ihram before performing Umrah at Mekka. Travelled from Madina to miqat, before hitting the road to Mekka.

  • 5/5 owais s. 1 year ago on Google
    The government has done a pretty good job in providing facilities to pilgrims. Although there should be signs in the parking lot to find buses easily.

  • 5/5 Rahmat BPP J. 9 months ago on Google
    Masha Allah, what a mosque. Very large area, lots of date palms and seating areas. Beautifully decorated mosque and in this place we took the miqat. Inside the mosque is very clean and comfortable, there are several points of zam-zam water that can be drunk if the congregation is thirsty.

  • 5/5 Muhammad A. 10 months ago on Google
    Meqaat for Umra Pilgrims just 10-15 minutes outside Madina Munawwra. Umra Pilgrims put on Ehram and offer Nawafils in Holy Mosque. The Mosque has a huge praying hall, major number of washrooms and ablution areas.

  • 5/5 Ibrahim 11 months ago on Google
    One of many beautiful mosques around Saudi Arabia and this one mosque signifies the beginning of your Ummrah if your travelling from Madina to Makkah, plenty of room for both men and women to shower and changed, pray and make way. Plenty of parking spaces for coaches and mini buses. A lot more organised compared to before.

  • 5/5 Abdullah B. 8 months ago on Google
    This Mosque is located in the town of Dhul Hulaifah, between the Holy city of Madinah and Makkah. Dhul Hulaifah is the Miqat for Muslims Pilgrims entering the city of Makkah from the city of Madinah. A Miqat is a place where Muslims on Hajj pilgrimage stop over to clean up, put on their white robe known as Ihram and pray before entering the city of Makkah. This is a very important obligatory step for Muslims on Hajj pilgrimage.

    The peaceful place ever & It is probably the best place I have ever visited. Unforgettable Experience with all spiritual and calming I cherish every moment of it. Too many feelings & no words are enough to describe this magic place...

  • 5/5 Shu S. 11 months ago on Google
    Our beloved Prophet (may peace and blessings be upon him) designated this location as the miqat for anyone wishing to perform 'Umrah or Hajj from Madinah. After the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, it was also the location where our beloved Prophet (may peace and blessings be upon him) entered the state of ihram before performing 'Umrah. The masjid was initially constructed by 'Umar ibn 'Abdulaziz, and King Fahd completed the most recent significant renovation.

  • 5/5 Thanish A. 1 year ago on Google
    Miqat mosque holds a special place because the Prophet (P.B.U.H) defined it as the miqat for the people of Medina. As pilgrims arrive for umrah or hajj, they stop by the mosque in order to enter into ihram and make the intention of performing umrah before they leave for Mecca. People inside Mecca, who have to perform umrah, travel to the mosque especially so they can enter into ihram.

  • 5/5 Ammar H. 1 year ago on Google
    A beautiful Mosque that is well maintained and has lovely greenery in it forecourt so nice resting place after prayers. A must visit for all going for Umrah from Medina for Niyat of Umrah

  • 5/5 Akbarally H. 1 year ago on Google
    Maashaa Allah. After around twenty years I’m back at Zul Hulaifah, same tranquility and peace in this Blessed Valley. The one visiting it can pray two voluntary prayers as the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad, Peace of Allah and His Blessings be upon him, said in an authentic Hadith. I can see that a commercial wing has been added which is a very good initiative as in the past there was a disorderly market on the sideways and pavements thus blocking the way of pilgrims.

    The Mīqāt Dhu al-Ḥulayfah, also known as Masjid ash-Shajarah or Masjid Dhu al-Hulayfah, is a miqat and mosque in Abyār ʿAlī, Medina, west of Wadi al-'Aqiq, where the final Islamic prophet, Muhammad, entered the state of ihram before performing 'Umrah, after the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah.

  • 5/5 Shaheer A. 1 year ago on Google
    The meeqath for people of Madina and those who intend to perform umrah after Madina visit.. Very good place and large number of washroom and toilets to accommodate people.

It's pretty green, and the fountain in the middle makes it a perfect family place to walk and stay for a longer time. Many...
