  • It is a historical mosque built on a site where the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed. Muslims visit it today to see its unique architectural style, and recall the relevant events in the life of the Prophet and his companions.
    It was given this name because it is located in the village of Bani Anif, a Bali people who lived between Bani Amr bin Awf in Quba and Al-Osbah. This mosque is on the right side of the Hijra Route leading to Madinah, southwest of Quba Mosque.
    The mosque’s current structure is an unroofed stone structure; it has been restored like other historical mosques. The mosque’s footprint was visible on high ground, and about two meters of its walls remained before renovation. It was built of basalt stone, witha trace of the Mihrab visible in it, and its entrance was built on the north side.
    Historical Significance:
    The mosque is close to Quba Mosque to the southwest. Bani Unaif Mosque was built by Banu Unaif in one of their forts on the road leading to Madinah from the south, opposite to Al-Qaim Farm. A subtribe of Bali, Banu Unaif were the allies of Bani Amr ibn Awf, a subtribe of Aws. They are also believed to be of the descendants of Amaleeq, who had settled in Yathrib before the advent of Aws and Khazraj.
    The Prophet (ﷺ) went to Bani Unaif to visit Talha ibn Al-Bara’ during his illness. The Prophet prayed in their quarters, and they honored the spot where he prayed and used to spray it with water. Ultimately, they built a mosque there that was named after them.
