Etiquette of Visiting the Prophet’s Mosque
If you want to visit the Prophet’s Mosque before or after Hajj, you should have the intention of visiting the mosque, not the grave. You should enter with your right foot first and say the reported Du`a. Then you should pray as you like. It is better for you to pray in Ar-Rawdah. When you have prayed and want to visit the grave of the Prophet, you should stand in front of it in a dignified manner and say the reported Du`a. Then you should move a little to your right and send Salams upon Abu Bakr As-Siddiq. Then you should move a little further to your right and send Salams upon `Umar ibn Al-Khattab.198,845Can Menstruating Women Enter Al-Masjid An-Nabawi?

Allah, may He be Exalted, swears by Makkah. 5. Allah, may He be Exalted, decreed Makkah to be a sanctuary the day He created the heavens and the earth. 6. Madinah is the location of Hijrah. 7.
