Namirah Mosque is one of most important landmarks in plains of Arafat

Arafat (IINA) – Namirah Mosque is one of the most important landmarks in the plains of Arafat, where tens of thousands of pilgrims perform Dhuhr and Asr prayers shortened and combined on Arafat Day at the time of Dhuhr prayer, following the example of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
The Mosque was built in the place where the Prophet (PBUH) stood and delivered his Farewell Sermon in the early period of the Abbasid Caliphate, during the 2nd Hijiri century. It is located to the west of Arafat Mount, and the western part of the mosque is in Wadi Uranah – one of Makkah's valleys. The Prophet forbade standing in Wadi Uranah, as he said: “I am standing here but all of ‘Arafat is the place of standing, except for the bottom of Wadi Uranah”. The bottom of Wadi Urnah is not part of Arafat but it is close to it.
According to Saudi Press Agency (SPA), Namirah Mosque has passed through several expansion processes over the history, after which the front section of the mosque stretched outside the plains of Arafat, while the back section remained inside Arafat.
Namirah Mosque witnessed its largest ever expansion in history in the Saudi era, at the cost of SR 237 million, bringing the length of the mosque, from east to west, to 340 meters, and its width, from north to south, to 240 meters. The mosque covers an area of more than 110,000 square meter, and there is a shaded space to the back of it, with an area estimated at 8,000 square meters.
The mosque accommodates up to 350,000 worshipers. It has six 60-meter-high minarets, three domes, 10 major entrances with 64 doors. There is also a radio station for live transmission of the Hajj sermon as well as Dhuhr and Asr prayers on the Day of Arafat.
