Masjid Suqya

This is located 2km from Masjid-e-Nabwi, near the Anbariya train station.

When the Prophet (ﷺ) departed for the battle of Badr he stopped here, performed ablution and offered salah. He then supplicated for the dwellers of Madinah and paraded his forces.

Irq al-Zabiyyah

This is where the Prophet (ﷺ) and the Sahabah stopped on the 14th Ramadhan on their march to Badr.

The Prophet (ﷺ) consulted with the Sahabah here whether they should go forward and fight against the mushrikeen (polytheists) of Makkah.
