Ghamama Mosque [270]

Ghamama Mosque [270]
The location where ghamama mosque (masjid ghamama) stands today was an open-air area during the time of the Prophet (PBUH) where the Eid prayers (Eid ul-Fitr and Eid ul-Adha prayers) were most frequently held. Nowadays Ghamama mosque is very near to the Prophet`s mosque due to the extension of masjid Nabawi. The word `ghamam` in Arabic means clouds. This mosque has been given this name because it is the place where the Prophet (PBUH) prayed for rainfall after which it rained profusely.
