The Pillars (Sutun)

SUTUN-E-HANNAANAA Near the mimber adjoining the Mehrab-e-Nabwi is a pillar ( sutun ) called Istewaana-e-Hannaanaa. ( Hannaanaa is the sound the small camel makes when it is separated from its mother ). Before the Mimber was built, Rasool Allah ( ) used to lean against a date palm and give Khutbas. After the Mimber was built,Rasool Allah ( ) used the Mimber for khutbas. The date palm cried out of loneliness. Rasool Allah ( ) came down from the Mimber and reassured the date tree that it would accompany him in Jannat. When this date palm dried up, it was buried there and a pillar was raised in its memory. Now this pillar is called " Sutun-e-Hannaanaa ". SUTUN-E-AISHA The third pillar from the grave of Rasool Allah ( ) is called " Sutun-eAisha ". Rasool Allah ( ) has said that in this Masjid there is one place where if people come to know the thawab of praying there, they would make long queues. Rasool Allah ( ) had not said where the place was. After his death, Hazrat Aisha ( ) pointed out this place and a pillar was raised here called the " Pillar of Aisha " or " Sutun-e-Aisha ". SUTUN-E-ABEE LABBAABA or THE PILLAR OF TAUWBA The pillar right in front of Kabre Mubarak is the Pillar of Tauwba. When



Muslims first came to Madinah, they made Peace Pact ( Agreemant ) with Jews. However, the Jews went against the agreement and continuously harrassed the Muslims. When this went beyond the limit, there was an order from Allah to kill the Jews. Abu Labbaaba ( ) was an old resident of Madinah who had accepted Islam, but still had contacts with the Jews. He went and told the Jews of the plan to kill them. Abu Labbaaba ( ) then repented his grievious mistake. He came to Masjid-e-Nabawee, tied himself to a date tree and cried to Allah for forgiveness. One day Rasool Allah ( ) was resting in the hujra of Umme Salma when Jibrail came with the ayah of the Quraan which mentions the forgiveness of Abu Labbaaba ( ). Rasool Allah ( ) untied Abu Labbaaba ( ) and gave him the good news of Allah's forgiveness. Here a pillar was built called Sutun-e-Abu Labbaaba and is recommended to pray two rakaat namaaz and ask for forgiveness.

Apart from these ' Sutuns ' ( Pillars ), there are three others that are half inside the Hujra Shareef and half outside it. All these pillar inside have their names written in the top circle of the pillar inside the golden edging. They are :a) SUTUN-E-SAREER This is the last one. It is where Rasool Allah ( is Arabic for bed. b) SUTUN-E-HARS or SUTUN-E-ALI It is the pillar where Hazrat Ali ( ) and some other Companions ( ) used to stand guard over Rasool Allah ( ) when he slept at night. ' Hars ' in Arabic is to guard or patrol. c) SUTUN-E-WUFUD When Muslims or non-Muslims from outside Madinah came to visit Rasool Allah ( ), he would receive their delegation here. ' Wufud ' in Arabic means delegation. Thus the pillar is known as Sutun-e-Wufud. d) SUTUN-E-TAHAJJUD This is opposite Suffaa at the corner of the chambers of Hazrat Fatema Zehra ( ) where Rasool Allah ( ) used to offer late night prayers. ) used to rest. ' Sareer '
