| The Green Dome, view from inside the Mosque of the Prophet |
The Green Dome ( Qubbat al-al-Khadra ') of the Prophet's Mosque is located at the tomb of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم ), buried together with the first two rightly guided Caliphs, Abu Bakr as-Siddiq and 'Umar ibn al-Khattab ( رضى ٱلله عنهم ا ) in what was the room of his wife 'Aisha ( رضى ٱلله عن ها ) , immediately adjacent to the area where the Prophet he used to pray pe rsonalmente, and now fully integrated in the building of the sacred complex.
writes Dr. 'Ali Hafez, in his "Fusūl min Tarikh al-Madinah al-Munawwarah" :
"Originally, there was no dome over the sacred chamber [ where the Prophet was buried , ed.] On the roof of the mosque, was erected a fence of brick, with the height of life, which distinguished the position of this section from the rest of the mosque.

The first dome was built in 678 H. (1280) by the sultan as-Salih Qalawun [ and then subjected to various renovations and reconstructions ]. In 1253 H. (1837) The dome was painted green for the first time on the order of Ottoman Sultan 'Abdul Hamid, and has since been renewed on green, where necessary, to date, taking the nickname "Green Dome ". Previously, essa fu conosciuta anche come " Cupola Bianca ", " Cupola Blu " o " Cupola Profumata ". »
