About Ziyarat Sites
Beyond the two Holy Mosques, the hills and outskirts of Makkah and Madinah are dotted with sites central to early Islamic history — mountains, caves and mosques that carry the story of the Prophet ﷺ and his companions.
A dedicated Ziyarat day, added onto a Makkah or Madinah stay, brings this history to life — from the cave where the first revelation came down, to the battlefield that shaped the early Muslim community.
