This is the Mihrab of Allah's apostle may peace and blessings be upon him.
The mihrab is basically a recess in the masjid that indicate the direction of the prayer 'Qiblah' (to Makkah) .
Ofcourse it didnt look like this at the time of Prophet muhammad peace be upon him,
but this is exactly where the prophet peace be upon him
used to stand to lead the prayer with the early muslim believers. Allahu Akbar!
The Rawdha. A special holy spot (with bright carpet) at the Prophet's Mosque.
At the center is the Prophet's Mehrab (pray stand)
The Prophet's Masjid is distinguished by the Rawda as-Shareefah,
which is the area between the house of Allah's apostle al-Hujrah as-Shareefah - and the Minbar - the pulpit.
The Prophet peace be upon him said,
"Between my house and my minbar - pulpit - a Rawdah -garden- of Jannah." [Agreed upon]
