About 10 minutes drive passing through the Old city, Souk Hariqah and one of the seven doors of the Old walled city – Bab al Saghir, we arrived at the cemetery around the place called Bab al Saghir where shrines and tombs of many of the prominent people are kept. Visiting the shrine and tomb of prominent figures who had played various significant roles during the early phase of the Islamic history was one of the main items of our agenda. We have heard and read many of their stories during our ta’lim session, from man Muslim scholars and Sheikh. The inspiring success stories (about their sacrifices, perseverance, determination and passion towards the religious duties) of these people – trailblazers on their own businesses - had in one way or another motivated us to pay our visit and tribute. Success stories easily elicit two responses – inspiration and envy – in both circumstances to me are good. When you read the achievement of these personalities (what more you are right in front of their tombs), you either get inspired to aim for higher level or, simply covet the fame and fortune. It is almost impossible not to be untouched by stories of their sacrifices and how mere mortals found ways to surmount the toughest of obstacles to reap their rewards. The true faith that they had subscribed and diligent obedient followers to the great Messenger of Allah swt – the beliefs and principles – are the common factors that conjoined them.
The experience and opportunities of visiting the shrine, crypt and tombs, had further enriched our Islamic knowledge. In this release or entry, I have placed photos of their shrines and tombs with some brief descriptions about their biography, etc., which I had gathered from the internet, books and of course Amir & Azmi. If in any instances however, the information are found to be incorrect, please do drop your comments with no hesitant.
There were more than 15 bodies of these people treasured here. Among them was Bilal bin Rabah radiallah hu anh (ra); Abdullah Ibn Maktum ra; the wives of the Messenger of Allah swt and many more.

It covers up to 2500 sq. It has child safety lock also in case you have naughty kids at home. Remove the pie and allow it to cool on a wire rack. If your next door neighbor has recently had his/her AC repaired, then you could always ask them about the company they hired.
