Dark civilization
Mecca was known as a place for pilgrimage. Geographically Mecca contains of desert and dry peninsula.Mecca was synonymous to the Prophet Ibrahim As (pbuh) and his family Hajar and Ismail As (p.b.u.h) during the past time.People around the world went to Mecca for Hajj at least once in a life time.Muslim around the world facing their face to Kaaba during prayer. "FAWALLI WAJHA SYATRAL MASJIDIL HARAM" . Turn your face to Masjidil Haram in Mecca during Solah.Muslim never ever worshiping the black stone such as indictment of Non Muslim. In the early history where society was in the darkness, lot of superstition and misconduct among people.The era was known Jahiliyyah, the aged of ignorance or barbarian where the daughters was insulted and buried in living life without humanitarian and guilty consciousness. Rasulullah Saw came to safe them from ignorance, he brought the light and shining people through faith (Iman). Therefore he was confronted by the people including his own family Abu Lahab, Abu Jahal who really boycott his preachers. Allah SWT was specifically recorded the character of Abu Lahab in the holy Al Qur'an verse Al Massad. The situation became worst where The Prophet Saw was threaten and intimidated by their society, enforce him to migrate from Mecca to Medina for Hijrah. The Prophet Saw was accompanied by His closed companion Abu Bakar As Sidiq r.a who later became the first Caliph after Rasullullah Saw was returned (wafat) to Allah SWT.
Yathrib to Medina
Rasulullah Saw was changed Yathrib to Medina Al Munawarrah which means city of luminous. Today Medina is rapidly change in all aspects.Medina become the beautiful city and peaceful place to visit (only for Muslim) during Haj and Umrah. The five stars hotel located surrounding Masjid Nabawi (Prophet Mosque) to ease people performing prayers every time.Medina is a fertile place to be agriculture areas beside Thaif. There are lots of quality dates, fruits and vegetables come from Medina.Mostly people are polite and good not like people in Mecca looking rough and less respect others.Rasulullah was born in Mecca and after completing His task for Islam for 23 years Allah want Him to be buried in his house inside Masjid Nabawi, Medina Al Munawarrah. Indeed if the world can be permanently to the mankind, Rasulullah SAW will alive forever. Islam is very beautiful and practical for all people across the globe. We can see the solidarity and unity of all Muslim with difference races and tribes during pilgrimage in Mecca for Haj. Allahu Akbar.
