What you would own

Not published, so ask the developer

What a zone permits and what a developer sells inside it can differ, so settle the tenure in writing before you pay anything. What to ask about freehold and usufruct.

What each check shows, and the patterns to recognise

Where it is

44–53 min on foot to the Prophet's Mosque, at least

Measured in a straight line from the zone's nearest edge on the regulator's boundary, and walked at 1.2 and 1.0 metres a second. Any route on foot takes longer. How the Haram Minute is worked out

The developer says “10 minutes from the Prophet's Mosque, 5 minutes from Quba Mosque (developer)”. The shortest possible walk from the zone's nearest edge is 44 minutes, so the developer's 10 is measured from somewhere else; ask them where their walk starts.

The sacred precinct is drawn on this figure as a line, for orientation. No surveyed boundary for the haram of Madinah is published as open data, so this outline is traced from a circulated boundary map and fitted to the road network. It is approximate, to roughly 200 m. Nothing on this site is measured from it, and it decides nothing about ownership: the precinct and the designated zones are two different lines. Where it matters where the boundary runs, the signs on the ground are the authority. Zone boundaries: Saudi Properties portal, retrieved 19 Sep 2026, simplified to 10 m for drawing.

  1. REGA — system enters into force · 22 Jan 2026
    In Makkah and Madinah, non-Saudi ownership and real rights are limited to Muslim natural persons (Law Art. 2(4)); REGA states this applies whether residing inside or outside the Kingdom.

  2. REGA — law text, Art. 2(3) · 25 Jul 2025
    In Makkah and Madinah, non-Saudi purchases are only possible inside the designated geographic zones; the 'one residence outside zones' right for residents does not apply to the two holy cities.

  3. Saudi Properties portal — zone boundaries
    Zone areas and distances on this site come from the boundaries the Saudi Properties portal publishes for each zone; a distance is the straight line from the nearest point of that boundary to the Grand Mosque or the Prophet's Mosque, so the walk is always longer.

  4. FHWA — Capacity Analysis of Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities (FHWA-HRT-98-107) · 1 Feb 1998
    The US Federal Highway Administration's pedestrian capacity study recommends a walking speed of 1.2 metres per second for most conditions, and 1.0 metres per second where more than a fifth of the people using a facility are aged 65 or over.

  5. REGA — enquiries about projects licensed in off-plan sales and leases
    REGA's public off-plan enquiry lists each Wafi-licensed project's licence number and type, licence start and end dates, the escrow bank and account number, the developer, unit types and the construction completion rate — with no login.

  6. REGA — inquiry about a real estate advertisement licence
    REGA's public advertisement-licence enquiry takes the advertisement number and reports whether a licence exists and its status, with no login.

  7. REGA — enquiring about the FAL licence
    REGA's public FAL-licence enquiry has two search fields, the licence holder's ID number and the establishment number, so checking a broker needs one of those and cannot be done by name or by licence number.

  8. Saudi Properties portal — developers
    The Saudi Properties portal publishes a public developer register giving each developer's name, unified commercial registration number, establishment type and contact details, with no login.

  9. REGA — inquiry about a real estate advertisement licence (result and details pages)
    A found advertisement licence on REGA's enquiry shows its status and issue and expiry dates, and its details page names the advertiser with their FAL licence number, the advertisement type, the deed type and number, the property type and the price on the licence.
