Exact date and time of Prophet's death

Question

Please tell me the exact date and time that our beloved Prophet Muhammad [SAW] died.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

Prophet Muhammad,  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ), died in the month of Rabee' Al-Awwal, in the year 11 A.H. His,  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ), death was on a Monday in Rabee' Al-Awwal, either the 12, 13, 14, or 15 of the month; the right date is not certain.

Allaah knows best.
