                                                     MASJID-UL-HARAM )        


This is the picture of hateem and according to a school of thoughts ,it is the place where the holy prophet Muhammad Sallallaho allihi wasalam was taking rest in the night of 27th Rajab when holy angle jibrael allihi salam and mikael allihisalam came  alongwith 70 thousand other angels  to take the beloved prophet to the skies. 
Though Hateem is half circled area adjecent to holy kabba having no roof  as shown through arrow  yet It is  the part of holy kabba and tawaf is done outside covering it.
This is the place where holy prophet Ismail allihisalam and his mother syeda hajra allihisalam are lying to rest.

       ( PICTURE SHOWING HATEEM JUST ADJECENT TO HOLY KABB)

 

According to another school of thought  he sallalla ho allihi wasalam was taking rest in  the house of his cousin syeda um-e-Hanni when  holy angle Jibrael came to take him to skies for MARAj. The house of syeda um-e-Hani was out of Harm shareef in those days but was very near to hateem  as haram was not so big then as it is today. Due to expension of Harm , now house of syeda umm-e-Hani has come inside the haram very near to mutaf. In 147 hijra it came into haram boundaries due to its' extension .

       VERY NEAR TO THE LOCATION OF  SYEDA  UMM-E-HANI  HOUSE )

iIf you enter in masjid ul haram through bab-e-abdul aziz ,the gate number 1 of holy masjid-ul-Haram, you will find yourself on the  plateform of this gate where on the both sides wide stairs are available for going to upper level. you keep walking straight .Now  you will find few steps to down to come to big hall of masjid-ul- Haram. you must turn yourself to your left just entering to the hall without forwading even a single step.NOW the wall of masjid hall will be at youe left hand .keep walking forward .you will be with wall at your laft and praying area at your right. When you walk straight, you will find big rounded marbled pillar at your right one after another. you count it . At 5th pillar you will see a way going to your right towards mutaf and holy kabba. And a zam zam water room at your left. Now do not move forward but take right turn on the way going to mutaf and holy kabba.When you will get right turn zam zam water drinking room will be exactly at your back. Now go forward. After few feet walk,you will find a little slope or ramp. Come to the slope or ramp STOP HERE .

This pillar is thin as compared to all other pillars of masjid-ul-haram and it is not made of marble. it is mosaic-ed pillar. It is not very decorated as other pillars are.

          IT IS THE POINT OF STARTING JOURNEY BY
              BURRAQ TOWARDS MASJID-E-AQSA )


It is the source of zam zam water which was used by angle Jibrael Allihisalam to wash the holy heart of beloved Prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam before departing towards Alqudas-Masjid-e-Aqsa.

This is the picture of holy foot print of Prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam. According to a school of thoughts, beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallaho allihi wasalam was taking rest in hateem OR syeda umm-e-Hani house and angle Jibrael allihi salam kissed the soul of his holy foot and the prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam got up feeling the coldness of angle Jibraels' lips

THOUGH YELLOW  domb  IS  VERY  HOLY  PLACE AND  IS BUILT OVER THE  ROCK BUT BE AWARE IT IS NOT MASJID-E-AQSA .MASJID -E-AQSA   IS IN FRONT OF TOMB. IT  IS  SAID DOMB IS THE PLACE WHERE THE BURAQ WAS FASTENED .
