Masjid al-Qiblatain, the Mosque of the Two Qiblas

Masjid al-Qiblatain takes its name from an event remembered in Islamic history when the direction of prayer changed from Jerusalem to the Kaaba in Makkah — the mosque is where this change is said to have occurred during prayer, giving it its distinctive name, 'the mosque of the two qiblas'.

It stands a few kilometres from Masjid an-Nabawi, in an area with several other small historic mosques, and is a popular stop on a wider Ziyarat itinerary. For a broader tour of Madinah's historic sites, see our Ziyarat taxi service.

Visiting the mosque

The mosque has been rebuilt and modernised over time but retains its historic name and significance. It is an active place of worship, and visitors are welcome to see the building and pray if they wish, with clear areas for men and women.

The surrounding district is easy to reach by private car, and the mosque is often combined with nearby historic sites on the same visit.
