History of the Green Dome in Madinah
The Green Dome over the grave of the Prophet dates back to the seventh century AH. It was built during the reign of Sultan Qalawun. The scholars criticized the building of the Green Dome and its being given a color. The reason why the Green Dome is not demolished is so as to ward off fitnah and for fear that it may lead to chaos among the ordinary people and the ignorant.
