Masjid an-Nabawi gates

Bab an-Nisa on the East Side

A gate designated for women

Bab an-Nisa means “Gate of Women,” and its official name is Bab an-Nisa, or Gate of the Women. It is designated for women to enter and leave the masjid, and has historically been associated with women’s access. The gate was added on the eastern side during the expansion of Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him). Today it is numbered 39. For women approaching for salah, the name offers a clear indication of the gate’s intended use; follow the Haram’s signs and staff for current access arrangements.

East-side neighbouring gates

Bab an-Nisa is on the east side of Masjid an-Nabawi. Nearby entrances include Bab Jibril, numbered 40, and Bab Bilal, numbered 38. Bab al-Baqi is also close by, while Bab al-Rahmah is farther along the map. These are neighbouring gate positions rather than descriptions of the routes inside the masjid, so check the signs as you approach and follow staff directions if access arrangements change. For visitors meeting family after salah, agreeing on the gate name as well as its number can make it easier to find one another.

Jannat al-Baqi and nearby stays

Jannat al-Baqi is about 500 m in a straight line from Bab an-Nisa. Masjid al-Ghamama and Anbariya Mosque are also listed among the nearby sites, at about 520 m and 1,210 m in a straight line. These are map distances, not walking directions. The listings on this site show 26 stays within 300 m of the gate, in the Central Haram district. That gives visitors a sense of the nearby accommodation options when choosing where to stay for ziyarat and time at the masjid.

Check Nusuk for the Rawdah

If your plans include visiting the Rawdah, check the Nusuk app and make sure you have an appointment. Men and women have separate visit times. Access arrangements change, so follow the Haram’s signs and staff. It is also helpful to confirm your meeting point with companions before entering, especially if you are keeping to separate prayer areas or planning to meet after salah. Keep your route flexible and use the gate signs to orient yourself when leaving.
