The
prophet's immigration 02.

 

III. The arrival of the prophet to Qibâ'.

Four days after leaving Mecca, the prophet -may peace be upon him- arrived to Al-Madina in Thursday. Once there, he built the mosque Qubâ'. This mosque is the first to be built in Islam, and Allah honored it by mentioning it in the Noble Koran. The Almighty Allah said: «…A mosque that was founded upon piety from the very first day is more worthy to be stood in, in it are men who love to purify themselves, and Allah loves those who purify themselves». [Surat At-Tawba/The Repentence, 108].

 

IV. The welcome of the prophet by the Ansâr.

The prophet -may peace be upon him- was given a tumulous welcome once he arrived to Madina. The Ansâr went to meet him on Friday, Rabiî El-Awal 12th raising their voices and singing "Talaâ El badru alaina" (the full moon has risen upon us).

Each tribe of the Ansâr wanted to lodge /give hospitality to the prophet -may peace be upon him- but the prophet who was riding a she-camel said: «Let it (the she-camel) for it is directed». The she-camel kneeled down inn a land which belonged to two orphans Sahl and Suhail who are the sons of Rafiî bnu Amru. The latter are maintained by Asâad bnu Zurara. This land is the one which the prophet - may peace be upon him- chose to build his mosque.

 

V. Conclusion.

1- The preservation of belief which was the aim of the prophet Muhammad - may peace be upon him- when he immigrated to Medina. In fact, the country, the property and the family have no value/are valueless when belief is threatened. The Almighty Allah said: «Those who accepted oppression for themselves, surely when the Angels seize their souls saying: "Why have you accepted oppression? They shall say: 'We were deemed weak in land'. The Angles shall say:" Was Allah's earth is not spacious enough for you to emigrate from the oppression? So, these it is whose abode is Hell, an evil resort». [Surat An-Nissâ'/The Women, 97].

2- Making sacrifices in order to protect belief, and being patient in moments of affliction. The emigrants were, in fact, the models who embodied these features among them: Asma- the daughter of Abu Bakr, Musâb Bnu Umair, Ali Bnu Abi Taleb, Abd Allah Bnu Abi Bakr.

3. The good planning and the Seizure of the occurred instrumentalities.

4. Sincere fraternity between the Ansâr and the immigrants whom Allah the Almighty honoured by mentioning them in His Book. Allah the Almighty said:«The foremost, the first of the immigrants, the Ansâr and those who came after them and followed them in goodness, Allah is well pleased with them, and they are well pleased with Him, and He has prepared them Gardens beneath which  rivers flow, to dwell there forever, that is  the greatest triumph». [Surat At-Taouba/ the Repentance, 100].

5. The Love of the prophet- may peace be upon him, and the translation of this love into actions by the Sahaba.

6. The non negligence of Allah support and protection during the prophet’s immigration. Allah the Most High said:  «And Allah made it but a messenger of hope and an assurance for your hearts, and victory comes only from Allah, surely Allah is Almighty, All Wise». [Surat Al-Anfâl/the Spoils of War, 10].
