Jabal al-Nour

In the Muslim religion, Muhammad received his first revelation from God on this mountain.

Reviewed By Fatima_Alsawad94 - Salalah, Oman

A nice walk with my husband and child, great views all the way up, encountering many stalls and gift shops from start to finish and, once you reach the top of Jabal Noor you see the cave of Hira - limited in size and space with a nice view of Mecca and the sight of the new clock tower - once able to see the Kaaba from there but now with the new construction and buildings not possible, its nice view to visit night time before fajr.

Black Stone

This holy stone is the eastern cornerstone of the Kaaba, the ancient stone building towards which all Muslims pray. Many Muslims believe that the stone (originally white but now black from absorbing the sins of man) fell from heaven during the time of Adam and Eve.

Reviewed By AIKAPP - Karachi, Pakistan

The Black Stone, al-Ḥajaru al-Aswad, "Black Stone") is a rock set into the eastern corner of the Kaaba, in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. It is revered by Muslims as an Islamic relic which, according to Muslim tradition, dates back to the time of Adam and Eve. The Black Stone was originally a single piece of rock. It is surrounded by a silver frame which is fastened by silver nails to the Kaaba's outer wall. Polished smooth by the hands of pilgrims. Islamic tradition holds that it fell from heaven . Muslim pilgrims circle the Kaaba as a part of the tawaf ritual during the hajj and many try to stop and kiss the Black Stone, emulating the kiss that Islamic tradition records that it received from Muhammad.[SAW] Muslims do not worship the Black Stone.

Safa to Marwa

Reviewed By moinulbb - Dhaka City, Bangladesh

Located a few meters away from the Holy Kaaba these are the two small hills named Safa and Marwa and all are within the Masjid Al Haram. The distance between the two hills is approximately 450 meter within which Muslim pilgrims perform Sai during Hajj and Umrah. There are multiple floors to perform Sai and the total area is fully air conditioned. There is a dedicated floor for those who are using wheel chairs. One have to run seven times in between starting from Safa which takes approximately one hour.

Khadija Baghlaf Mosque

Reviewed By HFikri - Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Nothing special here about the building , but a good place to come if you want to pray On Friday in a big clean Mosque, or to attend a lecture, it will be crowded and difficult to park your car.

Kaaba

Reviewed By gulzucker - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

The most stunning place in the world. The best time for performing Umrah is from October till March, as the weather is very cool and pleasant for the pilgrimage.
