Why did the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.W.) migrate Mecca to Medina?
What is migration?
The hostilities of the Quraysh intensified after the
successful migrations to Abyssinia. The Prophet (peace be upon him) decided to
take refuge in the city of Yathrib from the fury of his enemies in Mecca. In
the tribulation society of ancient Arabia, it was not easy for a man to change
his residence from one city to another. He could be killed by any man for
transferring his loyalty. This danger faced the Muslims of Mecca when they
migrated from their hometown to Yathrib or Madinah as it should be called now.
They wanted to emigrate due to the Quraishite persecutions. And also, because
the Prophet (peace be upon him) said it. However, they left Mecca in groups of
two and three until only the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him), Hazrat Abu Bakr
and Hazrat Ali (may God be pleased with them) and their families left behind.
In total, almost a hundred families made the Hijra in Medina
and, therefore, became known as the Muhajireen or the Emigrants. The Quraish
already had the intelligence of the meeting of the Prophet (peace be upon him)
with the Yathribites. But when they saw the houses and even the entire
neighborhoods of the Muslims abandoned by their inhabitants, their suspicions
were confirmed and their apprehensions awoke. Their leaders met in the council
room, the Dar-un-Nadwa, in the Kaaba. Abu Jahal proposed that the Prophet
(peace be upon him) should be killed. The proposal was quickly recognized and
the herd of professional assassins, headed by Abu Jahal, pursued the two after
a surprising postponement in the house of the Prophet (peace and tranquility),
where Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was discovered resting in the
bed of the Prophet (peace be upon him) The Prophet (peace be upon him), who had
anticipated such movement from the Quraysh, was quickly informed of his evil
design.
After giving final instructions to Hazrat Ali (may Allah be
pleased with him), he left his home together with Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be
pleased with him) and went south of Makkah.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) and his friend (may Allah be
pleased with him) were involved in a collapse of Mount Thawr. They stayed there
for three days and three nights. Abu Jahal sent men mounted in all directions
to insure the Prophet (peace be upon him) in any condition. For three days they
searched vigorously for both of them, but in the end, they became desperate and
their efforts diminished. When informed, the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and
Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) left Medina on two camels. By
forced marches, they covered the distance between the two cities in half the
usual time and arrived at the village of Quba on September 22, 622. This was
the Hijra of the Prophet, who opened a new chapter in the history of Islam.
Then, when you go to Mecca to perform Umrah and Hajj with the help of the Cheapest

place and pray for all the Muslims.
The background of the migration:
During the first three years of the Prophetic mission, the
idolaters of Mecca did not oppose Islam. This was because his preaching was
private and limited to a restricted circle of relatives and friends of the
Prophet (peace be upon him). The first signs of opposition appeared when the
Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) began public preaching. And this was
especially when he entered the house of Al-Arqam, which had become the center
of his missionary activities. His opposition was, at first, expressed in mild
incivilities mixed with curiosity. They mostly made fun of the Prophet (peace
be upon him). "There goes the son of Abdullah", they would comment
when the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) passed by and "who brings news
from Heaven". But when the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) began to
denounce his worship of idols and warned them of the terrible consequences of
his unbelief, his opposition became more hostile and violent. Their abuses
changed to persecution.
The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) was subjected to
expansive affronts and unkind treatment. When by chance I was going down a road
or was in prayer, the garbage and garbage are poured over your head. The
thistles spread in his path. The Muslim community lost its social status; even
worse, their rights. The first and the most to suffer at the hands of the
Quraysh were the converted slaves. They were subjected to all kinds of torture.
They beat them, roasted them in the scorching sands of the midday sun of the
Arabian noon, and even killed them in cold blood. Even in normal times, Arabia
is a hard land for the weakest sectors of society, like slaves. But during the
advent of Islam, their fate was even more difficult. Such is the image of
primitive Islam.
The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) Stay in Jabaal-e-Thawr:
Throughout this journey, Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be
pleased with him) showed signs of true loyalty. When they entered the Cave of
Thawr, it was he who entered first. He made sure that the cave was completely
safe for the Prophet (peace be upon him) to enter and stay. While he was inside
the cave, he welcomed the Prophet (peace be upon him) to take a nap in his lap.
As the Prophet (peace be upon him) was thus asleep, he was stung by some
poisonous insect. But he held on until his tears woke the Prophet (peace be
upon him). Therefore, he showed that, in fact, it was the correct choice of the
Prophet (peace be upon him). While your efforts are worthy of our praise, your
family's efforts cannot be ignored. Only for your information in Umrah Packages
2018 ziarat is also included in the packages.
When he was released, a slave became the Maula or client of
the family to whom he owed his freedom. He reciprocated generosity by taking
care of his sheep. Or he would carry out other tasks of that family.
Amir bin Fuhayrah (may God be pleased with him) was one of
those men. He was a maula of Hazrat Abu Bakr's clan (may God be pleased with
him) and worked as a shepherd. The route taken by his teacher and the Prophet
(peace be upon him) to reach Jabal Thawr was full of camel tracks. He followed
the two with his flock of sheep, thus eliminating those traces. In addition, he
stayed near Mount Thawr and gave them fresh milk from time to time.
As for the camels, the son of Hazrat Abu Bakr, Abdullah bin
Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) brought them back to Mecca once their
riders were thrown to their destination. In addition, he was instructed to keep
both ears open for intrigues and to inform the denizens of the cave. Amir bin
Fuhayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) covered the tracks of Abdullah as
well. When Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) returned the second
night, he was accompanied by his sister and the daughter of Hazrat Abu Bakr
(may Allah please him); Hazrat Asma (may God be pleased with her). She provided
them with food.
Even so, some of his persecutors came to the cave on the
third day. This was a critical moment. And when the protection offered by the
cave seemed desperate, Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him)
panicked. The Prophet (peace be upon him) consoled him with these legendary
words. Hadith, as narrated by Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him)
says:
I told the Prophet (peace be upon him) while he was in the
cave. "In the event that one of them got under his feet, he would see
us." He declared: "O Abu Bakr, what do two (persons) consider the
third of whom is Allah?
