"Dream - Saudi Arabia has allowed the holding of marriage ceremonies at Masjidil Haram and Masjid Nabawi. As is well known, both places are holy sites for Muslims located in Makkah and Madinah. The issuance of this permit is an initiative from the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah to enrich the experience of pilgrims or visitors. Through the newspaper Al Watan, this initiative was reported and has since been officially announced by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah of Saudi Arabia."

"Indeed, Prophet Muhammad saw once conducted a wedding ceremony in the mosque. In addition, Al Jabri also stated that the marriage contract conducted in the Nabawi Mosque is a common practice for the people of Medina. "This is due to several reasons. Some of them have a tradition of inviting most of the relatives of the prospective husband and wife. Often, the bride's family home cannot accommodate all the guests. Therefore, the marriage contract is held in the Nabawi Mosque or Quba Mosque," explained Al Jabri."

Considering that the mosque is a sacred place as well as a public facility for Muslims to worship. The important thing when holding a wedding at Masjidil Haram and Masjid Nabawi is to preserve its sanctity. In addition, it is important to avoid speaking loudly. Also, avoid bringing a lot of coffee, candy, or food as explained by Al Jabri.

"So, Hajj and Umrah pilgrims usually do not miss visiting both places before returning to their homeland. As reported by Gulfnews on Monday (22/01/2024), pilgrims who visited Al Rawda Al Sharifa as the burial place of Prophet Muhammad in Masjid Nabawi reached 5.8 million pilgrims. Not only Masjid Nabawi, but Muslims also visit other Islamic landmarks in the city of Madinah."
