Almadina (or Medina) is important for Muslims mainly for:

  • Al-Madina (or Medina) is the second holiest Islamic city (after Makkah or Mecca).
  • It is the first city of the Islamic state. Islam spread allover the world started from Medina.
  • In addition, the second most important mosque is in Medina (AlMasjid AlNabawy)
  • prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the next two Caliphs (AbouBakr and Omar) are buried there
  • it contains a lot of special cultural landmarks that are important to muslims.

    Mohammed (pbuh) is buried there. "Madina" is actually "Medinat al-Nabi," the City of the Prophet.

Medina is holy for Muslims because it was the focal town from which real spread of Islam started. In addition, there is there the prophet Mosque (AlMasjid Alnabawy). Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) died while in Medina and buried there and also the first two prophet successors AbouBakr and Omar.

Medina (or AlMadinah) is the second holiest Islam city (the first is Mecca or Makkah and the third is Jerusalem). This is because it was the focal town from which real spread of Islam started. In addition, there is there the prophet Mosque (AlMasjid Alnabawy). Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) died while in Medina and buried there and also the first two prophet successors AbouBakr and Omar. There are there many important religious sites.
