The library at Al-Masjid an-Nabawi has fully reopened after a year-long renovation project. Located on the rooftop near Gate 10.

During the closure, workers upgraded climate control systems to better preserve delicate texts dating back centuries. The space now features enhanced lighting and expanded study areas while maintaining its traditional character. Digital research tools have been added to complement the physical collection.
