EDITORS COMMENTS
Jannat al-Mualla, also known as the Cemetery of Ma'la and Al-Hajun, is a significant historical site located to the north of the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. This cemetery holds the graves of Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) beloved wife, Khadija bint Khuwaylid, and many other members of his family. Khadija, who was the first wife of Muhammad and the mother of their progeny, was a respected businesswoman and a source of comfort and support for the Prophet during the early days of Islam. Her tomb, as seen in this photograph from the circa 1910s, was located in Jannat al-Mualla before its destruction in 1925. Khadija's grave is an essential pilgrimage site for Muslims, as they seek to pay their respects to the woman who played a crucial role in the early history of Islam. The cemetery itself is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Mecca, a city that holds immense importance for Muslims around the world.
