The 8th of Shawwal:
“Think not of those who are slain in Allah's way as dead. Nay, they live, finding their sustenance in the presence of their Lord;” {Holy Qur’an, Surah Aal-‘Imran, Verse 169}
In the year, 1345 AH (April, 21, 1925), mausoleums in Jannatul Al-Baqi (Madina) were demolished.
The Jannat-ul-Baqi cemetery, located in the holy city of Medina, Saudi Arabia is the resting place of many relatives and companions of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). The Prophet (PBUH) paid rich tributes and offered prayers in this cemetery. Prior to the twentieth century, many of the graves were covered with domes or other structures. After the city of Medina was conquered, many of these tombs, originally intended to identify the graves of the exalted family of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), were destroyed in 1925.
