al Masjid al Nabawi Medina shade (opening)

Known as the Mosque of Prophet Muhammad, Masjid al-Nabawi is located in the holy city of Medina in Saudi Arabia. Regarded as the second holiest mosque in Islam, Masjid al-Nabawi is the final abode of Muhammad.

The roof of Masjid al-Nabawi, Medina is adorned with 24 domes that have square-shaped bases. These bases have holes that light up the interiors of the mosque. The Masjid al-Nabawi is splendidly decorated with polychrome marbles and stones.

The new Mosque of the Prophet houses the old mosque as well. The latter is adorned with myriad forms of decorations and tiny pillars, whereas the former glistens through its white marble and is clearly more modernized.
