MAKKAH: The team behind the Muhajir (Arabic for ‘migrant’) initiative announced that it has documented the Prophet Muhammad’s journey from Thawr Cave in Makkah to the Quba Mosque in Madinah, including more than 20 stops.
The team spent more than a year researching and documenting the path taken by the Prophet’s convoy.
Mohammed bin Samel Al-Salami, a professor of history and the Prophet’s biography — and a member of the Muhajir team — told Arab News that the team had relied heavily on the books of the Prophet’s biography for research purposes.
Some of the routes the Prophet took on his flight from the conspiracy against him in Makkah, Al-Salami said, were unknown at the time.
HIGHLIGHT
The details of the Prophet’s journey will be displayed in the Migration Museum in Mount Thawr in Makkah in an exhibition including documentaries, photos, drawings and maps. The show will be in several languages to enable pilgrims and foreign visitors to enjoy it as well.

That exhibition, which will open soon, will complement the already-running exhibition telling the story of revelation, he added, which has proved popular with pilgrims.
