The Seven Mosques (al-Masajid as-Sab'a) is a complex of small historic mosques in Medina, Saudi Arabia. Despite the name, it consists of six mosques. Several explanations are given for the number seven: some hold that the complex originally comprised seven mosques, while another reason is that visitors usually include Masjid al-Qiblatayn on the same trip, bringing the total to seven.

The Seven Mosques (Arabic: المساجد السبعة, romanized: al-Masājid al-Sabʿa) is a complex of six small historic and often visited mosques in the city of Medina, Saudi Arabia. Despite only consisting of six mosques, the complex is called seven because some think it originally consisted of seven mosques. Another reason for the name is that many visitors usually visit Masjid Al-Qiblatayn among these mosques on their visit to Medina, making it seven. Some also consider Masjid al-Khandaq to be among one of those seven mosques.
