The visit to this mosque symbolizes the unity of Muslims, who do not differentiate between them a language, race or color, and are keen to visit it after performing the rituals of Hajj or Umrah.
The most distinguished characteristic of the Prophet Mosque is the green dome built above the noble prophetic room that includes the tomb of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and which has been without a roof over it for more than six centuries, before the Mamluk Sultan Al-Mansur Qalawun ordered the construction of wooden domes above it in 1279 AD. In later times, many restorations and additions were made to the dome, and its color changed from white to purple until it settled on green. After the burning of the green dome in the fire of the Prophet’s Mosque, it was rebuilt in 1817 AD and painted green again.
