HIJRAH
FROM the prophet’s entry into QABBA begins the Muslim Era,
know as “HIJRAH”, which is in accordance with 20th September,
622 A.D.
In Medina the prophet got an apportuni to do the will God. The Azan,
as a call for the prayers was introduced and the direction of prayers
was changed from Jerusalem toward the Kaaba.
This success of Muhammad (pbuh) and the religion of God annoyed the
Mecca’s. Soon after they sent a letter to Abdullah bin Obi,
a chief of Medina, asking him either to kill Muhammad (pbuh) or expel
him from his town or they would be obliged to invade. And so in Medina,
too, the hostile forces began to work.
“Fight for your God the people who went to fight with you,”
came the commandment and the prophet obeyed.
