Masjid (Mosque of) Imam Bukhari



Dari timur-laut Masjid Nabawi boleh kelihatan masjid ini. 
From the north-east of Masjid Nabawi could be seen this mosque.


Letaknya cuma 200 meter ke utara halaman Masjid Nabawi.
It's location is just 200 metres to the north of the compound of Masjid Nabawi.


Kelihatan ia tidak lagi digunakan.
Looks like it is no more in use.


Bila dilihat lebih dekat baru saya tahu ini adalah Masjid Imam Bukhari. Berasal dari Bukhara (sekarang di Uzbekistan) beliau telah merantau jauh untuk menuntut ilmu dan mengumpul hadis Nabi. Imam Bukhari hidup awal abad ke 9 Masihi. Kalau tak salah masjid ini dibina di atas bekas kediaman beliau semasa di Madinah.
When looked at closer then only I knew this is the Masjid (mosque of) Imam Bukhari. Originating from Bukhara (now in Uzbekistan) he had travelled far and wide to gain knowledge and collect hadith (sayings) of the Prophet (Muhammad SAW). Imam Bukhari lived in the early 9th century AD. If not mistaken this mosque was built on the site of his dwelling when in Medina.
