Historical Event at Masjid Ijabah
It is reported that Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) returned from Al Aliyah entered this mosque and prayed two Rakats. He prayed for a long time. After the prayers, he turned towards the companions and spoke about the three duas he asked Allah. Where two of them were to save people from famine and flooding were fulfilled. But the last Dua of “ending strife amount the people” was not accepted.
Aamir bin Sa’ad (may Allah be pleased with him) reported on the authority of his father that: One day Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) came from Aaliya and passed by the mosque of Banu Mu’awiyah. He went in and observed two rak’ahs there, and we also observed prayer along with him, and he made a long supplication to his Lord. He then turned to us and said: “I asked my Lord three things and He has granted me two but has withheld one. I asked my Lord that my Ummah should not be destroyed by famine and He granted me this. And I asked my Lord that my Ummah should not be destroyed by drowning (by deluge) and He granted me this. And I asked my Lord that there should be no bloodshed among the people of my Ummah, but He did not grant it.” [Muslim].
