On seeing this the Qurayshi sol-
diers left thinking that no one could
have entered the cave.
Thereafter Prophet Muhammad [s]
and Abu Bakr [r] set out for Yathrib.
The people of Yathrib celebrated
the arrival of
Nabi
Muhammad [s]
and changed the name of the city to
‘
Madinat an-Nabiy
’, ‘The City of the
Prophet’, or simply Madinah.
This event is known as the
Hijrah
,
or migration.
Muslims all over the world mark this
time as the beginning of our calen-
der.

Qur’an
Allah has declared:
“... Allah did indeed
help (his Prophet [s]
when the unbelievers
drove him out. He
had no more than
one companion and
the two were in the
Cave. (The Prophet)
said to his compan-
ion, ‘Have no fear, for
Allah is with us’. Then
Allah sent down His
peace upon him, and
strengthened
him
with forces which you
could not see, and
humbled to the
depths the word of
the unbelievers. But
the word of Allah Is
exalted
to
the
heights, for Allah is
Exalted in might,
Wise.”
Hadith
Our beloved Prophet
Muhammad said:
(When Abu Bakr [r]
whispered to the
Prophet [s] ‘What if
they were to look
through the crevice
and detect us?’ the
Prophet [s] replied...)
“Silence, O Abu Bakr!
What do you think of
those two with whom
Allah is the third.?”
The people of Yathrib invited
Nabi
Muhammad [s] to their city.
The Quraysh planned to save
Prophet Muhammad [s].
Nabi
Muhammad [s] secretly
left Makkah with Abu Bakr [r].
Nabi
Muhammad [s] and Abu
Bakr [r] hid in the cave of Hira.
