Madinah Ziyarah: Places to Visit in Madinah

By the Mina Tours team · 6 min read · Updated July 2026

Madinah, the city of the Prophet ﷺ, is rich with sites of deep significance. Here are the places pilgrims most often visit, and why each one matters.

Masjid an-Nabawi and the Rawdah

The Prophet's ﷺ mosque, and the Rawdah — a blessed area between his ﷺ pulpit and chamber. Access to the Rawdah is now managed by timed permits through the Nusuk app; book in advance.

Masjid Quba

The first mosque in Islam. The Prophet ﷺ said that praying two rak'ahs at Quba carries the reward of an Umrah — many pilgrims make ghusl and visit with intention.

Mount Uhud

The site of the Battle of Uhud and the resting place of its martyrs, including Hamza (RA). A place for reflection on the sacrifices of the early Muslims.

Masjid al-Qiblatain and the Seven Mosques

Masjid al-Qiblatain is where the qiblah changed direction towards the Ka'bah. The nearby historic 'Seven Mosques' area marks sites from the Battle of the Trench.
