Masjid an-Namirah (Arabic: مَسْجِد ٱلنَّمِرَة) or Masjid Nimrah (Arabic: مَسْجِد نِمْرَة) is a mosque in Wadi Uranah near Mecca in the Hejazi region of Saudi Arabia. It is believed to be where the Islamic prophet Muhammad stayed before delivering his last sermon in 'Arafat. It is one of the most important landmarks during the Hajj, as it is where the khutbahs are delivered to pilgrims during the Day of Arafah during the Dhuhr and Asr prayers. It is located near Mount Arafat.
