The Prophet’s Sirah • Series 28

The Farewell Pilgrimage

The Only Hajj of the Prophet ﷺ After the Hijrah, From Madinah to ‘Arafah and Back, According to the Qur’an and Authentic Hadith

In 10 AH it was announced that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would perform Hajj. People came from all over Arabia, “as far as the eye could see”, all wishing to do as he did. At ‘Arafah came the verse “This day I have perfected for you your religion”, and at Mina he said: “Take your rites from me.” The twenty-eighth book of The Prophet’s Sirah tells of the Farewell Pilgrimage.
