Mecca to Medina:
100 Personal Reflections on Prophet Muhammad's ﷺ Hijrah Journey
Husain Abdullah, along with 5 others walked a historic migration route through the Arabian desert. It's called the "Hijrah" of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessings Upon Him).
In the year 623 AD, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ migrated with a small group of believers from Mecca to Medina. The journey was so momentous, the Islamic calendar begins with this journey and world history forever changed.
The Hijrah laid the foundations for the Golden Age of Islam.
There are, maybe, less than 100 people living that have traversed this journey as of today. Although, more people will seek the spiritual transformation that accompanies this path as it becomes more accessible in the near future Insha'Allah (God willing).
Throughout this journey, Husain Abdullah reflects on various Ayats (verses/signs) from the Qur'an and the Hadith (sayings and teachings of the Prophet). Abdullah ties his reflections to everyday life, his personal experiences of being a Black Muslim man in America, and the challenges he's faced.
This book seeks to take the complex and simplify it, while delving deep into spirituality, life, death and life's purpose.
