[[File:Qibla Nabvi mosque.jpg|thumb|upright|The old mihrab constructed by Muhammad. It was remodeled several times over the centuries, and is currently set in marble.]]

There are two [[mihrab]]s or niches indicating the ''qiblah'' in the mosque, one was built by Muhammad and another was built by Uthman. The one built by the latter was larger than that of Muhammad's, and it acts as the functional mihrab, whereas Muhammad's mihrab is a "commemorative" mihrab.{{sfn|Ariffin|2005|p=57}} Besides the ''mihrab'', the mosque also has other niches which act as indicators for praying. This includes the ''Miḥrāb Fāṭimah'' ({{langx|ar|مِحْرَاب فَاطِمَة|links=no}}) or ''Miḥrāb at-[[Tahajjud]]'' ({{langx|ar|مِحْرَاب ٱلتَّهَجُّد|links=no}}), which was built by Muhammad for the late-night prayer.<ref name="PM">{{cite web|title=The Prophet's Mosque|url=http://www.lastprophet.info/the-prophet-s-mosque-%E2%94%82-masjid-al-nabawi|access-date=19 June 2015|publisher=Last Prophet|archive-date=15 September 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190915021948/http://www.lastprophet.info/the-prophet-s-mosque-%E2%94%82-masjid-al-nabawi|url-status=dead}}</ref>{{Better source needed|reason=The current source is currently a dead link and may not be sufficiently reliable ([[WP:NOTRS]]).|date=January 2024}}
