Our day begins in the Hira District, home to the sacred mountain where revelation began. We first visit the Revelation Exhibition, a remarkable cultural landmark located beside Mount Hira. This exhibition is dedicated to the story of divine revelation and its connection to Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). Through immersive displays and interactive exhibits, visitors experience the powerful moment when Angel Jibreel (AS) revealed the first verses of the Holy Qur’an to the Prophet (ﷺ) in the Cave of Hira.
Next, we explore the Museum of the Holy Qur’an, the first of its kind in Makkah. This museum beautifully showcases the greatness and preservation of the Qur’an, highlighting its influence on Muslim civilization across centuries. It features ancient Qur’anic manuscripts, rare artifacts, and modern digital exhibits that allow visitors to witness the divine message through history.
We then ascend to Jabal Al Nour, famously known as the Mountain of Light, which houses the sacred Cave of Hira. It was here, in Ramadhan 610 CE, that Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) received the first revelation of the Qur’an. The mountain offers a profound spiritual experience along with panoramic views of Makkah and the Holy Mosque.
In the afternoon, we visit the Museum of Makkah, a treasure trove of Islamic art, culture, and history. The museum consists of seven exhibition halls containing over 100,000 artifacts, including ancient Qur’an manuscripts, architectural relics, and displays celebrating the intellectual and artistic achievements of the Muslim world. The museum also serves as a cultural center where Muslims from around the globe can share and exchange their perspectives on faith and tradition.
We continue to the Mosque of the Jinn, one of Makkah’s most historically significant mosques. It marks the site mentioned in Surah Al-Jinn, where a group of jinn listened to the Prophet (ﷺ) recite the Qur’an, accepted Islam, and pledged their allegiance to him — an event that signifies the universality of the Prophet’s message.
We conclude the day at the Exhibition of the Two Holy Mosques’ Architecture, which offers an extraordinary journey through the architectural and historical evolution of Masjid Al-Haram in Makkah and Masjid An-Nabawi in Madinah. The exhibition features models, inscriptions, relics, and photographs dating back to early Islamic centuries, including the old Kaaba door, samples of Kiswa, and a copy of the Mushaf of Uthman (RA).
