As-Sajadah Mosque (Arabic: مسجد السجدة), also known as Asy-Syukr Mosque or Abi Dzar Mosque, is a mosque located 900 meters north of Al-Masjid an-Nabawi in Medina, Saudi Arabia. The mosque is called "As-Sajadah" meaning "the prostration" because of an account of the Islamic prophet Muhammad prostrating here after hearing a good news from Gabriel regarding salawat.[1] Today, it is better known as Abi Dzar Mosque because it is on Abi Dzar street. It has been renovated and expanded in 2000.
