Intersting place
that I have been in this world
In I age 10 years old ,fisrt adventure
that I go with family is MAKKAH.Flight KUALA LUMPUR to MADINAH take time in 8
hours.Its very long departure to MADINAH.Went I was in they first I see is
MASJID NABAWI
The
site was originally adjacent to Muhammad's house; he settled there after his Hijra (emigration) to Medina in 622 CE. He
shared in the heavy work of construction. The original mosque was an open-air
building. The mosque also served as a community center, a court, and a
religious school. There was a raised platform for the people who taught the Quran. Subsequent Islamic rulers greatly
expanded and decorated it. In 1909, it became the first place in theArabian Peninsula to be provided with electrical lights. The mosque is under the control of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques. The mosque
is located in what was traditionally the center of Medina, with many hotels and
old markets nearby. It is a major pilgrimage site. Many pilgrims who perform
the Hajj go
on to Medina to visit the mosque due to its connections to the life of
Muhammad.
After
an expansion during the reign of the Umayyad caliph al-Walid I, it also now
incorporates the final resting place of Muhammad and the first two Rashidun caliphs Abu Bakr and Umar. One
of the most notable features of the site is the Green Dome in the south-east corner of the mosque, originally Aisha's house, where the tomb of Muhammad is located.
In 1279, a wooden cupola was
built over the tomb which was later rebuilt and renovated multiple times in
late 15th century and once in 1817. The current dome was added in 1818 by the Ottoman sultan Mahmud II, and it was first painted green in
1837, hence becoming known as the "Green Dome
Camel is ride NABI MUHAMMAD S.A.W
Camel is a special animals ride by
nabi muhammad saw.In Bukit UHUD there is war uhud in long time ago. After the
humiliating defeat in the Battle of Badr a year earlier, the Quraysh of Makkah
made preparations to muster a great army to fight the Muslims again and take
revenge. They assembled an army of 3000 soldiers with 300 camels, 200 horses
and 700 coats of mail. Wives and daughters of slained chiefs in Badr
accompanied the army to see with their own eyes the spectacle of the killers
being killed. Hind, the daughter of Utbah was the leader of the womens section
and her husband Abu Sufyan was the commander-in-chief of the Makkan army. Both
were not Muslims at the time but bitter enemies of Islam. The left and right
flanks were commanded by Ikrimah ibn Abi Jahl and Khalid bin Waleed
respectively. Amr ibn al-As was named the commander of cavalry and his task was
to co-ordinate attack between the cavalry wings. (All three subsequently became
Muslims and become great generals of islam)
And last
is MACCA MADINA (MASJIDIL AL-HARAM )
The Kaaba (Arabic: الكعبة) is a cuboid-shaped building in the center of the
Masjid al-Haram and is one of the most sacred sitesin Islam. All Muslims around
the world face the Kaaba during prayers, no matter where they are. The
direction from the location of the person who prays to the Kaaba is called the Qibla.
The
Hajj requires pilgrims to walk seven times around the Kaaba in a
counter-clockwise direction. This circumambulation, theTawaaf, is also performed by pilgrims during
the Umrah (lesser pilgrimage).
The Black Stone (or Hajarul
Aswad, Arabic: (al-Ḥajar al-Aswad) is the eastern
cornerstone of the Kaaba, the ancient stone building, located in
the center of the Grand Mosque in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. It is
revered by Muslims as anIslamic relic which, according to Muslim
tradition, dates back to the time of Adam and Eve.
The
stone was venerated at the Kaaba in pre-Islamic pagan times. According to
Islamic tradition, it was set intact into the Kaaba's wall by the Islamic prophet Muhammad in
the year 605 A.D., five years before his first revelation. Since then it has been
broken into a number of fragments and is now cemented into a silver frame in
the side of the Kaaba. Its physical appearance is that of a fragmented dark
rock, polished smooth by the hands of pilgrims. Islamic tradition holds that it
fell from the heaven as a guide for Adam and Eve to build an altar, although it
has often been described as ameteorite,
a hypothesis, which is now uncertain.
Muslim
pilgrims circle the Kaaba as a part of the tawaf ritual
during the hajj and
many try to stop and kiss the Black Stone, emulating the kiss that Islamic
tradition records as it received from Muhammad.
I'm a human ALLAH so very humble and very excited to visit the HOLY LAND MACCA
