Masjid Aisha (Masjid at-Taneem)
مسجد التنعيم
The miqat closest to the city on the edge of the sacred boundary. Those already in Mecca change into ihram here before returning to the Grand Mosque to perform an umrah.
Masjid Aisha is at Tan'eem, about 7 km from the Grand Mosque. It is the miqat on the sacred boundary closest to the city. Those already in Mecca who want to perform another umrah must come here to bathe, change into ihram clothing and pray before returning to the Grand Mosque, so traffic runs non-stop all day. The mosque has many bathing rooms and changing areas. Buses run directly from near the Grand Mosque, and the one-way trip takes about 15 to 20 minutes.
