This Cave, the sanctum of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), this is the same place where He worshipped Allah SWT. Cave of Hira is the place of His devotions and meditations. The Holy Quran was first Revealed here. The Cave is located on mount Al-Noor on the way to Mina near Makkah. It has a very high peak which is visible even from a great distance. It was during one of the nights in the month of Ramadan when Muhammad Sallalahualaiwaslam had just stepped into the forty-first year of his life, when the first 5 verses of the Surah Al-Alaque were Revealed to him.


The Battle of Badar is considered as the first Islamic war which took place between the believers of truth (Islam) and the forces of evil. The battle field of Badar is located at 60 miles from Madinah towards Makkah. There was a small group of only 313 Muslim men, of which merely 60 of them were armored facing a massive army of one thousand warriors well armed and equipped. The believers had the strength of their Faith in Allah SWT and His Prophet Muhammad Sallalahualaiwasalam. The Muslims fully believed in Allah SWT and His Prophet Muhammad Sallalahualaiwasalam, they knew that the Truth will emerge victorious and falsehood must be overpowered, destroyed and annihilated. Thus it was this very Faith which brought about the Miracle and Truth did triumph with the Muslims’ victory in the Battle of Badar. The courage and valor with which Prophet Muhammad Sallalahualaiwasalam along with his cousin Hazrat Ali AS and their small group of Believers fought the Non-Believers have set an example for all of us to follow. We too must have the same Faith and Belief in our Allah SWT and always lead the righteous path.



Abu Sufyan had succeeded in forming a military alliance which consisted of the Jews and various tribes of the Arabs. when the Prophet Muhammad Sallalahualaihiwasalam was informed about this huge army, He called a meeting of His Companions. As per the suggestion of Hazrat Salman Farsi, a trench of a depth of five cubits and width of more than ten cubits was dug, all around.  The ten thousand, strong and well equipped army of Quresh tried to cross it for 25 days but in-vain.  Finally, the army began to succumb and Abu Sufyan was forced to retreat to Makkah in sheer frustration.
