Holy Grave of Bibi Aamna in Abwa - Mother of Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم (Islamic Landmarks)


Syeda Amna is the greatest lady of the universe who gave Holy birth to Prophet Muhammad sallalla hoallihi wasalam.

After marriage with Syedna Abdullah, she spent few months with her. she had to say good bye to her beloved husband Syedna Abdullah just few month after marriage as he had to go to Yasrab (Now known as MADINA)for trade where he passed away. Even the flowers of this bride was not turned dried when she heard the news of sad demise of his beloved husband. In fact the maternal grand mother of Syedna Abullah used to live in Yasrab.

Just after marriage he left his newly wedded bride Syeda Bibi Amna in Makkah who had been expecting to give birth a child and set off for a business tour towards Syria. The innocent wife started waiting the return her beloved husband. When the trade caravan of Syedna Abdullah was coming back to Makkah, they stopped over Yasarb to see the maternal family of Syedna Abdullah. Unfortunately he fell seriously ill there. Rest of the members of the caravan waited for his recovery but as the time had passed the condition of Syedna Abdullah had continuously been deteriorated. The caravan had to move leaving him behind in Yasrab. At last the father of the Holy Prophet Syedna Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam passed away even before his Holy birth. This news had been heard by Syeda Bibi Amna with running tears and broken heart.

After six months the courtyard and rooms of Bibi Aminas' house were lightened by the Holy birth of Prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam. After the Holy birth, Bibi Amna wanted to go to Yasrab to see the mud of his beloved husbands grave. But her father-in-law Syedna Abu Muttalib did not allow her to visit Yasrab as he wanted her to care her Holy child who was not just an ordinary baby. Syeda Amna obeyed his advise and paid full attention to bring Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam up. When the prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam became 6 years old, she went Yasrab to see the grave of her husband. Syedna Umm-e-Aiman, the maid and beloved son Syedna Muhammad were with her.

When they were coming back to Makkah at the place of Abwa she fell ill and eventually passed away leaving her innocent orphan child alone. Beloved little Syedna Muhammad was just 6 years old at that time. No one can imagine how the little Syedna Muhammad sallalla ho allihi wasalam would be upset at that time.

Bibi Amna had been buried in ABWA. Umm-e-Aiman bring little Holy Prophet with her and came back to Makkah.


IMPORTANT NOTE: The parents of Syedna Muhammad sallallaho allihiw asalam were on DEEN-E-HANIF (RIGHT RELIGION) and they would have been awarded jannat after their deaths by most merciful Al mighty Allah subhan-o-tallah. The parents of holy prophet Muhammad sallalla ho allahi wasalm are very respectful personalities for all muslims.
