The Presidency of the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques has announced new timings and procedures for visiting the Roza-e-Rasool (the tomb of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) at Al Masjid an-Nabawi in Madinah. The updated regulations also cover the offering of voluntary prayers (Nawafil) in Riazul Jannah, with separate schedules for men and women.
Access to the sacred site is now strictly regulated through the official Nusuk digital platform. Visitors must obtain a permit via Nusuk, with bookings generally permitted once every 365 days. An “Instant Track” option is available for worshippers who are already near the mosque.
General entry to the Noble Roza is designated through the southern courtyards, specifically in front of Bab Makkah (Gate 37). Elderly visitors are permitted to enter using a manual wheelchair.
