The tomb of Prophet Muhammad’s father is in Medina.
In the past Abdullah In return of sham trade, went to Medina. In Medina there were some houses belong to bani-alnajar tribe (who were amene's(Abdullah 's wife) relative),Abdullah went to Nabeghe 's house;a person from that tribe. After some Abdullah became sick and died; according to that time custom, they buried him in Nabeghe 's house.
Prophet’s mother and him went to dar-alnabeghe when he was 6 years old and stayed there for 1 month.
Later, Prophet prayed in dar-alnabeghe several times, so they called it dar-alnabeghe mosque.
Some documents:
-Ibn-saad said from Zahri & Ibn-Abas:after hegira to Medina whenever prophet looked at that place,will said:
«نظر إلي الدار فقال: ههنا نزلت بي أمّي و في هذه الدار قبر أبي عبد الله.»
“my mother and me stayed in that place,and there is my father 's grave"(also in that reference: fasl men tarikh almedina from vaghedi)
-Batnuni said:
«مقام سيّدنا عبدالله والد الرسول... في بيت رجل منهم (بنونجّار) يقال له النّابغة
