Historical Sites In Makkah: Jabal Hira by yousouph(m): 10:47am On Oct 05, 2010 |
Jabal Hira' (the mount of Hira') was singled out for many blessings. Allah honoured it by making it the place where the Prophet often stayed, and where the revelation first came to him. The Revelation came to the Prophet(saw) in a cave in Hira". This cave is at the top of Hira', towards the back of the mountain. It is a cave that is well known to the people, knowledge of which was passed down from one generation to another. The Prophet(saw) used to go there to worship, before the Revelation came to him. It was reported that 'Aishah said "The onset of the Divine inspiration(wahy) that came to Allah"(swt) Messenger(saw) was in the form of good dreams; he did not see a dream but it would come true like the break of day. Then solitude was made dear to him, so he used to go alone to the cave of Hira' and devote himself to worship there for several nights before coming back to his family. He would take with him provisions for his atay, then he would go back tKhadijah and take a similar amount of provisions, ". Jabal Hira' was honoured and blessed in a way that happened to no other mountain because the Prophet spent so much time there and the beginning of revelation of the HOLY QURAN. |
