The Holy Prophet of Islam, Hadrat Muhammad Mustafa sa ra "1 ra ra sa sa ra , while looking for an opportune time to kill him. The Holy Prophet™ quietly slipped out of house in the secrecy of night just before dawn and on the way he picked Ḥadrat Abu Bakr. They both took shelter in a nearby cave called Thaur". No one except the three children of Hadrat Abu Bakr. Hadrat Abdullah, Hadrat ‘A'ishah and Hadrat Asma', knew about their hideout. For two days and two nights, the Holy Prophet and Hadrat Abū. Bakr hid in the cave. On the third night, according to plan, the Holy. Prophet continued his journey towards Yathrib, where the people were eagerly awaiting his arrival. When he reached Yathrib, he decided to stop for a while in Qubā', a nearby village. He stayed in Quba 'for a few days and also laid down the foundation of the first mosque ever built by the. Muslims. After ensuing the work on the Qubā'mosque, Holy Prophet finally arrived in Medina. The prospect of having to leave Mecca was very painful to the Holy Prophet.

Hadrat 'A'ishah relates about the migration of the Holy Prophet": ra sa ra "While we were at home, around noon-time, one day someone informed Hadrat Abu Bakr that the Holy Prophet" was coming with his head covered with a sheet of cloth, whereas he never before came to our house at noon-time. Bewildered, Hadrat Abu Bakr" arose saying, 'My father and mother be sacrificed for the Holy Prophet. By God! There must be something very important which has brought the Holy Prophet" at this time.
