It is the most serene and peaceful place on earth. In case you want to pay a visit to Rawda Al-Shareefah to the ladies' side, don't forget to book an appointment from the Nusuk app ahead of time, at least 3 weeks in advance.I would like to see more funding going for the unrestricted flow and organization of the masjid.
