Masjid Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu Anhu]


Masjid Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu Anhu] is located at the corner of Masjid e Nabawi Shareef in Madinah –Arabia. It is located at the west southern side of the Honorable Prophet’s Mosque, and it is about (1000) meters from its current fence.

This was Home of Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu Anhu] which was later converted to a Masjid by Authorities.

It is narrated that the Prophet Muhammad [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] prayed Eid prayer at this site, and Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu Anhu] after Him during His Caliphate, so it was attributed to Him.



It was built-up for the first time in the Princedom of Omar Bin Abdul Aziz in Al Madeenah (86-91 A.H./705-709 A.D.), and it was renovated by the Ottoman Sultaan Mehmood II in 1254 A.H./1838 A.D.



It is square shaped and the length of its side is nine meters. It was built by black basalt stones, and was painted white from inside with a dome above it whose height is (12) m. Within the walled area is a small rectangular courtyard. The minaret is an austere cylindrical shape also capped with a green metal cone..

The Holy Prophet Muhammad

[Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] said, O ‘Abu Bakr, You made place for me in the cave, I will make place for you in my Burial Chamber (Mazaar). In the cave I slept on your lap but in my Burial Chamber you will sleep in my proximity.’ Unto this day Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu Anhu] rests in the blessed Burial Chamber.

22nd Jamaadi ul Ukhraa : Hazrat Saiyyidinaa Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu 'Anhu]

Hazrat Saiyyidinaa Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu 'Anhu] was one of the first few people to accept Islaam at the invitation of the Holy Prophet Muhammad [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] He was a very kind-hearted, generous and noble person. His character was such that the people of the town of Makah all respected him and appreciated his good nature. It was due to this good nature that led  Hazrat Abu Bakr [Radiyal Laahu Anhu]—by the mercy and blessing of  Almighty Allaah, —to become one of the first believers of the message of our beloved Prophet Muhammad [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] and to spend the rest of his life in service to Islaam.


Hazrat Saiyyidinaa Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu 'Anhu helped Islaam in its early days by preaching the message to his friends and associates, as a result, many people embraced Islaam on his invitation. He also helped the progression of Islaam by purchasing and freeing many Muslim slaves that were tortured by their Non-Muslim masters for believing in Islaam. He served his religion by accompanying the Holy Prophet Muhammad [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] He on the dangerous journey of hijrah (migration) to Madeenah.....

Hazrat Saiyyidinaa Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu 'Anhu]


When they were in the cave, when he was saying to his companion "Do not grieve; indeed [Almighty] Allaah is with us"; then Allaah [Ta'aalaa] caused His calm to descend upon him and helped him with armies you did not see, and disgraced the word of the disbelievers; and  [Almighty]Allaah’s Word is supreme; and Allaah is the Almighty, the Wise-Soorah Taubaah-Verse-40

إِلَّا تَنْصُرُوهُ فَقَدْ نَصَرَهُ اللَّهُ إِذْ أَخْرَجَهُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا ثَانِيَ اثْنَيْنِ إِذْ هُمَا فِي الْغَارِ إِذْ يَقُولُ لِصَاحِبِهِ لَا تَحْزَنْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَنَا ۖ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ سَكِينَتَهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَيَّدَهُ بِجُنُودٍ لَمْ تَرَوْهَا وَجَعَلَ كَلِمَةَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا السُّفْلَىٰ ۗ وَكَلِمَةُ اللَّهِ هِيَ الْعُلْيَا ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ

Hazrat Saiyyidinaa Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu 'Anhu]

  "The most superior and the best of all men after Prophets – blessings and peace upon them – is Hazrat Abu Bakr As-Siddeeq. And then, Hazrat Umar ibn al-Khattab al-Farooq. And then Hazrat Usmaan. And then Hazrat Alee. May Allaah be well pleased with them all; they were worshippers and steadfast on Truth and sided with Truth. We love all of them." [Fiqh Al-Akbar]
