Makkah, July (پاکستان پوائنٹ نیوز 17 يوليو 2026ء) Globally recognized as the Mountain of Light (Jabal Al-Nour), its profound significance is rooted in housing the Cave of Hira near its 634-meter summit—a small sanctuary accommodating only a few individuals at a time, which served as the Prophet Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) retreat for solitary worship and the site where he received the very first revelation of the Holy Quran.
Today, Mount Hira stands as a premier destination for visitors, pilgrims, and scholars of the Prophet's biography. Evoking the earliest moments of Islamic history, the mountain serves as a lasting testament to the dawn of the message of monotheism.
