First Migration to Abyssinia | The Hijrah to Habasha | Seerah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

The First Migration to Abyssinia (Habasha) was one of the most important events of the early Makkan period of Islam. As persecution and oppression against the early Muslims increased in Makkah, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ permitted a group of his companions to migrate to Abyssinia, where the Christian ruler known as the Negus (Najashi) was known for justice. Among the early migrants were Uthman ibn Affan رضي الله عنه and Ruqayyah رضي الله عنها, the daughter of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. This episode explores the difficult conditions in Makkah, the reason behind the first Hijrah, the journey of the companions to Abyssinia, the response of Quraysh, and the later events surrounding the recitation of Surah An-Najm. We also discuss an important historical clarification concerning the famous narration about alleged words attributed to the Prophet ﷺ regarding the idols. The authentic Islamic sources must be distinguished from later reports and disputed narrations.
