Itinerary
Jabal al-Noor (Cave of Hira): This mountain is home to the Cave of Hira, where Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) received the first revelation of the Qur’an through Angel Jibreel. The hike to the top is steep but offers breathtaking views and a deeply spiritual experience. It’s one of the most iconic landmarks in Islamic history.
Jabal Arafah (Mount Arafat) , also known as Jabal al-Rahmah (Mount of Mercy), is where the Prophet delivered his Farewell Sermon. It is the central site of the Hajj’s Day of Arafah, symbolizing reflection, forgiveness, and prayer. Pilgrims gather here in millions to seek mercy from Allah.
Masjid Nimrah is located on the plain of Arafat. This historic mosque is where the Prophet gave his final sermon. It becomes active mainly during the Hajj season, when hundreds of thousands pray here in congregation. It holds a powerful connection to the legacy of the Prophet.
Masjid al-Jinn . This small mosque marks the place where a group of jinn are believed to have listened to the Prophet reciting the Qur’an and embraced Islam. It’s a unique spiritual stop that highlights the lesser-known but fascinating stories from the Prophet’s life.
Museum of the Holy Quran: This museum showcases rare manuscripts, ancient copies of the Qur’an, and information about its preservation over time. It’s a beautiful and informative space that helps visitors appreciate the Qur’an's sacred role and history.
