Overview
Masjid al-Ijabah (“the Mosque of the Answer”) is a small mosque north-east of Masjid an-Nabawi, not far from al-Baqi.
History
Sahih Muslim records from Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas that the Prophet ﷺ came from al-Aliyah, passed the mosque of Banu Mu’awiyah, entered and prayed two rak’ahs, and made a long supplication. He then said: “I asked my Lord for three things; He granted me two and withheld one” — that his Ummah would not be destroyed by famine, nor by drowning, and the third (that they would not fight among themselves) was withheld (Sahih Muslim 2890).
