Palace of Urwah is a tourist attraction holding historical significance. As per historians, Rasoolullaah صلى الله عليه و سلم gifted a piece of land to Bilal bin Harith رضي الله عنهto do cultivation. Later during khilafah of Ameerul Muemineen Umar bin Khatab رضي الله عنه, he summoned Bilal and told him to cultivate in that land what he could and the rest shall be distributed to other people. Accordingly, portion of that land which Bilal could not develop was sold to Khawwat bin Jubair al Ansari رضي الله عنه. Later in 41 hijri Urwah رضي الله عنه purchased piece of that land from Khawwat رضي الله عنه. He cultivated in it, dug a well and constructed a big house in it. The house is still intact after almost fourteen centuries passed. Urwah رضي الله عنه is son of Abdullaah bin Zubair bin Awwam and Asmaa binth Aboobacker رضي الله عنهم اجمعين. He used to learn from his Aunt, Ummul Moomineen A'isha al Siddiqa رضي الله عنها teachings of our beloved Rasoolullaah صلى الله عليه و سلم. Once Urwah رضي الله عنه invited A'isha رضي الله عنهاto this house and arranged a feast with some fine quality bread. Aysha رضي الله عنهاwept seeing it and told that, during her life with the leader of all creatures Rasoolullaah صلى الله عليه و سلم, she never tasted such quality bread.  سبحان الله‎‎… What a simple life you led oh Rasoolullaah! Mountains were ready to present to You by transforming themselves as gold but You refused and opted a super simple lifestyle! Allahumma Salli wa Sallim wa Barik Alika ya Sayyidee ya Qurratha Ainee ya Rasoolullaah (اللهم صل و سلم و بارك عليك يا سيدي يا قرة عيني يا رسول الله).

A historic place in Madina Munawwara connected with the Islamic Scholar Urwah bin Zubair in the early period of Islamic histiory. Urwah ibn Az-Zubair was born in the year 22 of the Islamic calendar, i.e. 12 years after the Prophet had passed away. Urwah was a very generous man. He used to open a door into his farm at the time when dates were ripe so that anyone could go in and take whatever he wished of his dates. He dug a well for people to drink, and it was said to have the finest water in Madinah. He was a man of genuine piety. He used to read about one quarter of the Qur’an every day and spent nights in rememberance of Allah.
