    مقبرة بقيع الغرقد

    • The historic cemetery of Medina, beside the Prophet’s Mosque, where four of the Twelve Imams are buried. The domes that once stood over their graves were demolished in 1344 AH (1925–26 CE), and the graves are now marked only by low stones. Read the guide to Jannat al-Baqi

Before you go

  • Opening times, journey times and access rules are not included because they change. Check locally on the day.
  • Follow shrine staff, police and posted entrance instructions.
