Saudi Arabia Post Al Madinah Al Munawwarah.

SAUDI ARABIA POST in 2006 (1437AH) issued a mini sheetlet honouring the city of Al Madinah Al Munawwarah. It featured images of Masjid Al Nabawi (Prophet's Mosque) and Roza-e-Rasool (grave of the Prophet Muhammad, SAW]. The stamp was valued at 5SR and printed by the Saudi Government Printing Department.

Above the chamber grill of Roza-e-Rasool (SAW),  a verse in Arabic from the Quran states:

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَغُضُّونَ أَصْوَاتَهُمْ عِندَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ امْتَحَنَ اللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُمْ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ ۚ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَأَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ

Indeed, those who lower their voices before the Messenger of Allah – they are the ones whose hearts Allah has tested for righteousness. For them is forgiveness and great reward. (Surah al-Hujarat, 49:3)

Captioned to the left of the stamp, in Arabic, is the phrase: "None of you believes until I am dearer to him than his father, his son, and all people."
