| La Cupola Verde, vista dall'interno della Moschea del Profeta |
La Cupola Verde ( al-Qubbat al-Khadrā' ) della Moschea del Profeta è situata in corrispondenza della tomba del Profeta ( صلّى اللَّه عليه و سلّم ), buried along 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 used to pray pe rsonalmente, and now fully integrated in the building the sacred complex.
writes Dr. 'Ali Hafez: "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 from that moment renewed the green, where necessary, to date, taking the nickname "Green Dome . Previously, it was also known as the "Cupola Bianca ", "Blue Dome " or "Scented Dome."
