The most pious and spiritual graveyard of the world is called, “Jannat-ul-Baqqi” where several companions (RA), wives daughters, and other family members of Prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasallam are lying to rest. In the time of Prophet sallalla ho allihi wasallam live hood, this graveyard was thought to be outside Madina City but after the vast extension, it has now come just adjacent to Masjid-e-Nabvi. If you come out from Masjid-e-Nabvi, through Baqqi Gate, or Jibrael (AH) Gate you will see a few yards ahead a boundary wall at a little height. This is JANNAT -UL -BAQQI’S wall. Stairs are made to reach the height.

Men can visit this graveyard going inside but ladies are not allowed even to go up near the wall of the graveyard. Ladies must present their Salaam outside Baqqi. Baqqi is a very clean and tidy graveyard. No bush or tree is there. All the graves are made of mud. No concrete constructions over the graves are made. Pavement and passages are made for easy walking but there is no sign over the graves have been given to know the name of the buried personality. Some guides (Moaleems) tell about graves. A squared boundary of half a foot high has been built around all prominent graves.

People must visit this graveyard with great respect as many great personalities are lying to rest here.

When you enter inside “Baqi”, a few feet ahead, slightly on your right you will see the graves of the daughters of prophet sallalla ho allihi wasalam .Three daughters named Syeda Umm-e-Kulsoom, Syeda Ruqiya, and Syeda Zainab Raddi Allah ho ta’ala Anhuma are buried here. A few steps ahead you may find nine graves of the wives of the Prophet (S. A. W.) including Syeda Ayesha Radi Allah ho talla anha.These graves are combined. After entering in Baqqi cemetery, if you take a left turn and come to the corner near the boundary wall you will find the grave of the closest aunt of Prophet (S. A. W.) Syeda Safia (RA). If you walk straight you will find the grave of Prophet’s (S.A.W) little son Syedna Ibrahim (RA). This is a smaller grave in size and pilgrims may recognize it easily.

If you take a right turn just entering to jannat-ul-baqi you will find the grave of prophet sallalla ho allihi wasallams’ grandson Syedna Hasan (RA). He is buried along with other family members of the prophet sallallaho allihi wasallam. The graves of Syedna Abbas (uncle of the prophet) and other imams like Syedna Baqar R.A and Jafar Sadiq R.A are also situated beside the grave of Syedna Hasan radi Allah ho talla anho. The beloved daughter of the prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam and the lady of Janna (Heaven) “Fatima -ul-Zuhra (RA)” is also lying rest just adjacent to these graves. In the last, almost crossing whole the graveyard, you may find the grave of the most respectable personality in this graveyard, “Syedna Usman (RA) “. Slightly on the left, a little before the grave of Syedna Usman Raddi Allah ho talla Anho, there is a grave of ” Syeda Haleema (RA)” who fed Prophet (S. A. W.), when he was an infant.
