Tomb of Hazrat Ayub R.A
This tomb, in the Eyüp district of Istanbul, belongs to Abu Ayyub Ansari (رضي الله عنه) who was a close companion of the Prophet (ﷺ). He died around 670 CE.
His full name was Khalid ibn Zayd ibn Kulayb.
When the Prophet (ﷺ) emigrated to Madinah, all of the Ansar were keen to host the Prophet (ﷺ) in their house. The Prophet (ﷺ) made the decision that he would stay where his camel stopped and it subsequently stopped at the residence of Abu Ayyub Ansari. The Prophet (ﷺ) stayed at his house for 7 months.
Abu Ayyub Ansari (رضي الله عنه) had a distinguished military career and was still out in the path of Allah at the age of 80. He died during the campaign of Constantinople (674-678 CE). One of the conditions of the peace treaties signed following the siege was that his tomb is preserved.
