MCQ Detailed View

Hazrat Abdullah (R.A), the father of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), passed away before the Prophet’s birth. Historical records confirm that his grave is located in Madina (then known as Yathrib). Hazrat Abdullah had traveled to Syria for trade and on his return journey fell ill. He stopped in Madina at the house of his maternal relatives (from Banu Najjar) where he passed away and was buried.

This event occurred shortly before the Prophet’s birth in Makkah. Hazrat Abdullah’s early death had a significant impact on the early life of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), who was born an orphan. His grave in Madina became a part of early Islamic history, highlighting the family connections of the Prophet (PBUH) in both Makkah and Madina.

Although most of Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) early life was spent in Makkah, this detail about his father emphasizes the close historical and emotional ties with Madina even before the Hijrah (migration).
