The interior walls of the Shrine of the Prophet Muhammad (rawda) within the mosque were historically covered in textiles similar to those of the Ka’ba in Mecca. However, unlike the Meccan Kiswa, they were changed considerably less frequently than once a year and were often made in Ottoman Turkey rather than Egypt.
