AI-Suqya Mosque



Abu Hurairah said, "Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) prayed at the site of this mosque while on his way to the Badr battle and made supplications to God to bless Madina residents and make the city as dear as Makkah in the hearts of Muslims.


Discovery of the Mosque


This mosque was discovered by the Islamic historian AI-Samhoudi who brought
archaeologists to dig its place.

According to AI-Samhoudi, the mosque was located near AI-Suqya Well and separated from it by the Jeddah-Madina road.

The mosque today is inside the courtyard of AI-Anbariya railway station.

It is also known as the "heads dome" because the Turks beheaded some bandits and put their severed heads inside the mosque. It is now deserted and no prayer is performed at it.
