White Palace the Mosque of Ahmad صلى الله عليه وسلم

 بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

والصلاة والسلام على رسوله الكريم

One of the amazing prophecies of my master the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم is concerning the appearance of his sacred mosque in Medina – Masjid an-Nabawi – in the future. He said:

يَوْمُ ‌الْخَلَاصِ ‌وَمَا ‌يَوْمُ ‌الْخَلَاصِ ‌يَوْمُ ‌الْخَلَاصِ ‌وَمَا ‌يَوْمُ ‌الْخَلَاصِ ثَلَاثًا فَقِيلَ لَهُ وَمَا يَوْمُ الْخَلَاصِ قَالَ يَجِيءُ الدَّجَّالُ فَيَصْعَدُ أُحُدًا فَيَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةَ فَيَقُولُ لِأَصْحَابِهِ أَتَرَوْنَ هَذَا الْقَصْرَ الْأَبْيَضَ هَذَا مَسْجِدُ أَحْمَدَ ثُمَّ يَأْتِي الْمَدِينَةَ فَيَجِدُ بِكُلِّ نَقْبٍ مِنْهَا مَلَكًا مُصْلِتًا فَيَأْتِي سَبْخَةَ الْحَرْفِ فَيَضْرِبُ رُوَاقَهُ ثُمَّ تَرْجُفُ الْمَدِينَةُ ثَلَاثَ رَجَفَاتٍ فَلَا يَبْقَى مُنَافِقٌ وَلَا مُنَافِقَةٌ وَلَا فَاسِقٌ وَلَا فَاسِقَةٌ إِلَّا خَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ فَذَلِكَ يَوْمُ الْخَلَاصِ

"The Day of Khalas! And what is the Day of Khalas? The Day of Khalas and what is the Day of Khalas” - he repeated it thrice – they said to him “what is the Day of Khalas?” He said: “The Dajjal will come and climb Mount Uhud and gaze upon al-Madinah, saying to his companions: ‘Do you see that white palace? It is the Mosque of Ahmad’ Then he will come toward al-Madinah but every pathway he will find an armed Angel Then he will go towards Sabkhat al-Harf and will strike his camp and al-Madinah will be jolted thrice as a result of which every hypocrite man and woman and habitually sinning man and woman will leave, and this is the Day of Khalas" (Musnad Ahmad; v.31, p.312)

Presently, the Prophet’s Mosque in Medina is a prominent, large white structure although this was certainly not its appearance during the Prophet’s own lifetime, and for many centuries after he passed away. And we know that the Prophet’s Mosque shall essentially remain in this form of a large white structure up until the Antichrist makes his way into its vicinity and points to it, naming it “that white palace” and the “Mosque of Ahmad”.
