Next, pass by Mina, the largest tented city in the world, with the capacity to hold up to 3 million people. Discover how pilgrims camp at Mina for multiple nights during Hajj, and hear about the valley of Mina, the place where Prophet Ibrahim was ordered to sacrifice his son Ismael in a dream by Allah.
Finally, head towards Jabal Al Nour, also known as Mount Hira (Jabal Hira), which lies about two miles from the Ka’bah. Near the top is a small cave, a little less than 4 meters in length and a little more than one and a half meters in width. It was here that the Prophet Muhammad ( صلى الله عليه وسلم) received the first revelations of the Holy Quran during the month of Ramadhan in 610 CE.
