2 unusual facts about Jabal Thawr


Jabal Thawr

The cave is still visited by a very small number of the pilgrims while observing the Hajj—the small number is due to its distance from Mecca.

The Mountain is notable for housing a cave known as Ghar al-Thawr ( Cave of the Bull), in which Muhammad and Abu Bakr hid from their persecuters, the Banu Quraish, during the migration to Medina.
