The Seven Mosques (Arabic: المساجد السبعة, romanized: al-Masājid al-Sabʿa) is a complex of six small historic and often visited mosques in the city of Medina, Saudi Arabia. Despite only consisting of six mosques, the complex is called seven because some think it originally consisted of seven mosques.[1][2] Another reason for the name is that many visitors usually visit Masjid Al-Qiblatayn among these mosques on their visit to Medina, making it seven.[2][3] Some also consider Masjid al-Khandaq to be among one of those seven mosques.[1][2][4]

Key Information

History

[edit]

The mosques here are linked to the Battle of the Trench (Ghazwat al-Khandaq), also known as the Battle of the Confederates (Ghazwat al-Ahzab). Muslims defending Medina were in these mosques and each mosque is named after the person who was stationed there.[3]

These mosques are located in south of Mount Sela which was the scene of the Battle of the Trench.[2]

Mosques in the complex

[edit]

Al-Fath Mosque

[edit]

This is the largest mosque of all, and it is located beneath of Mount Sala' on the western part. It is narrated that this mosque is named as "Al-Fath" due to the account of the prophet praying here during the Battle of the Trench, and the battle ended in Muslim victory (in Arabic, "Fath" or "Fatah" means "conquest" in Islamic context). The mosque was built during the time of the Caliph Umar bin Abdul Aziz, and renovated by the minister Saifuddin Abu al-Hija in 1154 during the time of the Sharifate of Mecca.

Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq Mosque

[edit]

It is located 15 metres (49 ft) southeast of Salman Al-Farsi Mosque. These three mosques (Al-Fath Mosque, Salman Al-Farsi Mosque and Abu Bakr As-Siddiq Mosque) were demolished and renovated into one mosque with wider space.

Umar bin Khattab Mosque

[edit]

It is located 10 metres (33 ft) south of Abu Bakar As-Siddiq Mosque. This mosque is situated on higher altitude, and its look is corresponding to Al-Fath Mosque, thus it is considered that they were built and renovated at the same time.

These modest structures, built centuries after the event during the Umayyad and Ottoman eras, mark key spots along the dug by the to repel an invading confederate army led by the tribe and their allies. Despite the traditional name referring to seven, only six remain today, with one——demolished in the 20th century to make way for a parking area, and including the nearby Masjid al-Khandaq marking the itself. The mosques are renowned among pilgrims and visitors to as a site for reflection on the strategic ingenuity of the battle, which ended in a Muslim victory through divine intervention, including harsh weather that dispersed the attackers after a prolonged .

Historical Background

The Battle of the Trench

The Battle of the Trench, also known as the Battle of the Confederates or Ghazwat al-Ahzab, occurred in the 5th year of the Hijra, corresponding to February-March 627 CE, during the months of Shawwal and Dhu al-Qa'dah in the Islamic calendar. It involved a large coalition of forces from the Quraysh tribe of Mecca and allied Bedouin tribes besieging the Muslim community in Medina. The confederate army, led by Abu Sufyan ibn Harb, numbered approximately 10,000 warriors, including around 4,000 from the Quraysh, 6,000 from the Ghatafan tribe, and contingents from other groups such as Banu Sulaym, Banu Asad, Kinanah, Murrah, Fazarah, and Ashja'. This alliance was formed in response to ongoing conflicts following the Muslims' migration to Medina and previous battles like Badr and Uhud, aiming to decisively eliminate the growing Islamic presence. Facing this overwhelming threat, the Muslim forces, estimated at about 3,000 men of fighting age under the leadership of Prophet Muhammad, adopted an innovative defensive strategy suggested by Salman al-Farsi, a Persian companion who drew from wartime tactics he had observed in his homeland. Salman proposed digging a wide and deep trench around the vulnerable northern perimeter of to impede the confederates' cavalry, a tactic unfamiliar to Arabian warfare at the time. The Prophet approved the plan, and the Muslims, including the Prophet himself, labored to complete the trench—stretching roughly 5-5.5 kilometers long, about 9 meters wide, and 3-5 meters deep, according to varying accounts—over a period of 6 to 24 days, depending on historical reports, just before the arrival of the enemy forces. The ensuing siege lasted approximately 27 days, marked by intense psychological strain and severe hardships for the , including bitter cold weather, famine, and constant fear of breach. Limited skirmishes occurred, such as the duel where ibn Abi Talib defeated the renowned warrior Amr ibn Abd Wud, boosting Muslim morale, but no large-scale combat ensued due to the trench's effectiveness. The siege was ultimately lifted by a combination of natural and internal factors: a fierce windstorm ravaged the confederate camps, uprooting tents, extinguishing fires, and causing chaos among the besiegers, while internal betrayals exacerbated their disarray. Notably, the recent convert Nu'aym ibn Mas'ud sowed discord by spreading misleading rumors among the confederates and their potential Jewish allies in , the Banu Qurayzah, who had violated their neutrality pact, further undermining the coalition's unity. The confederates withdrew without achieving their objectives, resulting in a Muslim with minimal casualties—only six reported on their side—despite being vastly outnumbered. This defensive triumph marked a critical turning point in early Islamic history, as it deterred further large-scale invasions against , solidified the Muslim community's resilience, and shifted the balance of power, paving the way for Islam's expansion across the .

Origins and Construction of the Mosques

Following the in 627 CE, where Muslim forces defended against a confederate army, the sites of troop command posts served as locations for prayer and commemoration in the immediate aftermath, though no formal structures existed at that time. The formal construction of the mosques began during the under Caliph (r. 705–715 CE), initiated by his governor of , Umar (later caliph, r. 717–720 CE), who oversaw the building of seven small mosques between approximately 707 and 711 CE to mark these historical positions and honor the Prophet Muhammad and his companions. These initial structures were modest, aimed at preserving the memory of the defensive strategy employed during the battle. In 1179 CE, the mosques underwent a major rebuild after sustaining damage, led by the Ayyubid minister Saif al-Din Abu al-Hija, who restored several of the structures to maintain their commemorative role. Further renovations occurred during the Ottoman era in 1851 CE under Sultan Abd al-Majid I (r. 1839–1861 CE), who rehabilitated key mosques in the complex, including expansions and repairs to enhance their durability and accessibility. These efforts ensured the site's preservation through centuries of regional changes. Over time, the complex evolved from its original seven mosques to fewer structures due to 20th-century demolitions for urban development in , notably the razing of Masjid Abu Bakr in the mid-1900s to accommodate a . The traditional name "The Seven Mosques" persists in historical and religious references, with the seventh site now represented by the nearby modern Masjid al-Khandaq, despite the physical changes leading to modern counts of five or six mosques.
