Sahih Bukhari 488 — The mosques which are on the way to Al-Madina

وَأَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى فِي طَرَفِ تَلْعَةٍ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْعَرْجِ ، وَأَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ إِلَى هَضْبَةٍ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ الْمَسْجِدِ قَبْرَانِ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةٌ عَلَى الْقُبُورِ رَضَمٌ مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ عَنْ يَمِينِ الطَّرِيقِ عِنْدَ سَلَمَاتِ الطَّرِيقِ ، بَيْنَ أُولَئِكَ السَّلَمَاتِ كَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يَرُوحُ مِنَ الْعَرْجِ بَعْدَ أَنْ تَمِيلَ الشَّمْسُ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ فَيُصَلِّي الظُّهْرَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْمَسْجِدِ .
`Abdullah bin `Umar also told (Nafi`) that the Prophet prayed at the edge of a watercourse behind Al-`Arj as you go towards a mountain. Near that mosque there are two or three graves with heaps of stones over them, on the right of the road beside the big rocks of the road. Between those rocks `Abdullah used to proceed from Al-`Arj after the sun had declined at midday, and he would offer the Zuhr prayer in that mosque.

‘Arj’ is the name of a settlement which is located at a distance of 14 miles from the place called Ruwaytha.
The signs and markers of this stage that have been mentioned do not allow us to determine the exact location of this place today.
