Tombs of the Prophet’s Companions
The Battle of Mutah, a pivotal moment in Islamic history, unfolded in 629 AD, marking the most significant and fiercest battle fought during the lifetime of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). Located near Al Karak, the Battle of Mutah Mausoleum commemorates the valor and sacrifice of Prophet Mohammad's closest companions who laid down their lives in the service of Islam. Visitors to the Maqam can pay homage to the revered companions Zaid bin Harithah, Ja'far bin Abi Talib, and Abdullah bin Ruwahah, whose tombs stand as enduring symbols of faith and devotion. Led by Zaid bin Harithah, the Muslim army valiantly faced a combined Byzantine/Ghassanid force, with Zaid being the only companion mentioned by name in the Holy Qur'an.
Situated in Southern Mazar, the region where the Battle of Mutah transpired, the mausoleum complex serves as a sanctuary drawing pilgrims and visitors from far and wide. Amidst open courtyards and serene gardens, the tombs of the companions offer a poignant reminder of their unwavering commitment to the principles of Islam. Abdullah bin Rawahah, renowned for his poetry and steadfastness, alongside Zaid and Ja'far, epitomized the courage and dedication that characterized the early Muslim community.
