Beyond the rituals, many pilgrims visit historic Islamic sites in Makkah and Madinah. These Ziyarat tours connect you to the life of the Prophet ﷺ and the early history of Islam.
Ziyarat in Makkah
- Jabal al-Nour — the mountain housing the Cave of Hira, where the first revelation came.
- Jabal Thawr — the cave where the Prophet ﷺ and Abu Bakr sheltered during the migration.
- Mina, Muzdalifah and Arafah — the plains central to Hajj, often viewed on a tour.
- Jannat al-Mu’alla — the historic cemetery of Makkah.
Ziyarat in Madinah
- Masjid an-Nabawi — the Prophet’s Mosque, home to the Rawdah and the resting place of the Prophet ﷺ.
- Quba Mosque — the first mosque built in Islam.
- Mount Uhud — the site of the Battle of Uhud and the graves of the martyrs.
- Masjid al-Qiblatayn — where the direction of prayer was changed to the Kaaba.
