As per human nature,
emigrating or moving from
homeland to another country
is to be considered one of the most difficult moments especially if one has to do so after being exposed and subjected to persecution
and harm from his own people.
Emigration or moving in such
a case represents a huge
psychological and physical burden
to the individual himself as
he has to abandon and leave his homeland and his memories behind his back and moving towards the unknown.
There are various reasons
why people emigrate to another place, some of which are looking for jobs, making money, or living a better life. But the case is completely different when we are talking about Prophet Mohammad’s (PBUH) emigration (Hijra) from Mecca To Medina as it was one of the greatest events that changed the history of mankind as a whole, it was an emigration that conveys deep meanings in the conscience and religion, it separates between right and false, it is an emigration to God, an emigration from polytheism and atheism to Islam. And because all of these meaning and others of course, Muslims have adopted their calendar (Hijri) to start from the year of the Prophet's emigration from Mecca to Medina. The meaning and the significance of "Hijra" is embodied in the Islamic calendar. Since its inception, the Islamic calendar represents a history of perpetual struggle between truth and falsehood, faith and blasphemy, freedom and oppression, light and darkness, and between peace and war. The first sign of winning victory is being psychologically strong and that was greatly demonstrated by the Prophet‘s (PBUH) answer when Abu Bakr (his companion in this journey said, “O Messenger of God, Were one of them to look down towards his feet, he would see us!” The Prophet replied, “What do you think of two people with
whom God is the Third?
" Do not be sad, for indeed God is with us.”
