Masjid al-Ji’rranah (Arabic: مسجد الجعرانة) is situated approximately 24km north-east of Masjid al-Haram and is one of the Miqat places where pilgrims enter into the state of Ihram for the performance of Umrah. In the year 8 AH the Prophet (ﷺ) camped in this location for a few days after the Battle of Hunayn, entered into the state of Ihram and then proceeded to Makkah for Umrah.
Origin of the name Ji’rranah
This area has been named after a woman from the Quraysh who belonged to the Banu Tameen tribe. Her name was Reeta and her title was Ji’irranah. She was mentally unstable and spent the entire day knitting cloth and then tearing it up in shreds. According to a narration of Abdullah bin Abbas (رضي الله عنه), it is this very lady that the Quran refers to in Surah Nahl where it states:
