Both the sides of this street have mostly gold shops. In local language this street is called CHAPTER MARKET( market of sheds). As soon as this street ends, you will find a mosque. Do not turn anywhere and go straight. Now there is a road. Keep walking on foot path. Now you will find a crossing and traffic signal. Do not turn anywhere walk straight and cross the road.

GRAVE OF ABDULLAH BIN UMER (R.A)
1 . Syedna Abdullah Bin Umer (R.A) was the son of Second Caliph Umer Bin Khattab (R.A). He was the true lover of Prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam. A number of sayings (AHADEES) have been described by him. After Syedna Umer (RA) it was proposed that he (RA) would be the Caliph of muslims but Syedna Umer (R.A) opposed and said that this decision would convert KHALAFAT in to heredity.
2 . Syedna Abdullah (RA) had a son who once denied to obey the saying of Prophet Muhammad - "Let the women permit to go in to mosques". Syedna Abdullah became very angry and never spoke to his son after this incident. This act proves how much he (R.A) had loved his Prophet sallalla ho allihi wasalam
3 . Very few pilgrims know that this great lover of Prophet is lying to rest very near to "Masjid-e-Aisha" in Makkah. When pilgrims go to "Masjid-e-Aisha" by bus, a muhalla named "Muhalla-e-Shuhda" comes to the left hand side where a small mosque is situated. Few yards ahead from this mosque there are three graves in the bottom of a hill. One of them is the grave of Syedna Abdullah bin Umer and remaining two are of his companions. Pilgrims must try to locate this grave to give salute (SALAAM) to the great lover of Prophet sallallaho allihi wasalam.
