Al-Raya Mosque, one of the historic mosques in Medina. The mosque is located north of the Prophet’s Mosque, about 1,300 meters away from it, above Dhabab Mountain, at the beginning of Al-Ayoun Road (left heading towards Al-Ayoun Road), and behind Al-Zughaibi Station (which is located on Sultana Road). That is, between El-Ayoun Road and Sultana Road, which is closer to El-Ayoun Road. It is one of the sites where the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, struck a dome for him during the Battle of Al-Ahzab (Al-Khandaq). It was named by this name because Yazid bin Hormozan was carrying the banner of the loyalist in a place of flies during the Battle of Al-Harra. Ibn Shabb mentioned in his Tarikh (1/61-62) on the authority of Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Araj: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was on the mountain of Dhubab. On the authority of Rabih ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Saeed, he said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, struck his dome on the day of the trench on flies to supervise the work of digging the trench. On the authority of Al-Harith Ibn Abd al-Rahman Ibn Abi Dhibab, he said: He said: Aisha, may God be pleased with her, sent to Marwan Ibn al-Hakam when he killed a fly and crucified him on a fly: You miserable, the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, prayed for him and took him on a cross! He said: The flies of a man from the people of Yemen attacked a man from the Ansar, and he was working for Marwan on some of the endeavors in Yemen. : What made you kill him? He said: I was wronged by a cow of mine, and I was a bad-tempered woman, so I killed him. Marwan killed him, and crucified him on flies. And (Ibn Sheziadin) mentioned that the sultans were crucified on flies, so Hisham bin Urwah said to Ziyad bin Ubaid Allah Al-Harithi: O wonder, are you crucifying the bulge of the dome of the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him? Ziyad stopped that, and the rulers after him stopped. It was known as Al-Raya Mosque, as mentioned by Al-Samhoudi in his book Wafa Al-Wafa (3/847), where he said: Yazid bin Hormuz was in the place of flies carrying the banner of the guardian and fighting with them, and thus it was called Al-Raya Mosque. Al-Samhoudi indicated that Umar bin Abdul-Aziz, during his tenure over Medina, was among the mosques that this mosque built and that it was built with stones identical to the description of the Omari mosques
