Masjid-e-Khief is a famous and historically significant mosque located in Mina, near Makkah, Saudi Arabia. It holds great importance in Islamic history because Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and many prophets before him are reported to have prayed in this mosque. During the days of Hajj, pilgrims visit Mina and offer prayers in this sacred mosque as part of the rituals.

The mosque is particularly significant because Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) delivered sermons there during Hajj, advising Muslims on important matters of religion and unity. It is believed that a large number of Prophets (anbiya), estimated to be around seventy, prayed in this place before Islam, making it a site of immense spiritual value.

Today, Masjid-e-Khief is one of the main prayer areas for pilgrims during the Hajj days (specifically the 10th to 13th of Dhul-Hijjah), and thousands of worshippers gather there to offer Salah while following the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ).
