| Chapter: 62 The construction of (the prophet’s pbuh) mosque |
| 446 Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: In the lifetime of Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) the mosque was built of adobes, its roof of the leaves of date-palms and its pillars of the stems of date-palms. Abu Bakr did not alter it. `Umar expanded it on the same pattern as it was in the lifetime of Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) by using adobes, leaves of date-palms and changing the pillars into wooden ones. `Uthman changed it by expanding it to a great extent and built its walls with engraved stones and lime and made its pillars of engraved stones and its roof of teak wood. |
