During this visit, you will learn about the hardships faced by early Muslims and their unwavering faith, even when they were forced to leave Makkah. Additionally, you will gain insights into the migration of the Prophet and the extraordinary events that took place at Jabal Thawr.

It holds great historical significance as it was here that Prophet Muhammad himself laid the foundation stone. Another noteworthy stop is the Masjid Qiblatain, known as the Mosque of Two Qiblas. This mosque holds a unique distinction as the direction of prayer (qiblah) changed from Masjid Al Aqsa in Jerusalem to Masjid Al Haram in Makkah, leading the companions to pray in two different directions.
Continuing our journey, we will make our way to Mount Uhud, which witnessed a momentous battle led by Prophet Muhammad and his Muslim forces against the troops from Makkah. Rising majestically to an impressive height of 3,500 feet, this mountain offers an opportunity to climb and gain a better vantage point to observe the historic battlefield.
