Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) took the jorney to hijra upon command of Allah (or God and same God in Christianity and Judaism) to him to leave Makkah (or Mecca) to AlMadinah (or Medina). Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was informed by Allah that the unbelievers of the tribes of Makkah (or Mecca) planned to assassinate him. On the planned night of assassination, the prophet Cousin Ali Ibn Abou Taleb slept in the prophet bed and the prophet left home while the pagans who planning to assassinate him are surrounding his home. He threw on them some dust and they neither saw him nor felt his departure (This is a miracle from God). When they woke up in the morning, they discovered that the prophet succeeded to leave Makkah (or Mecca) together with his companion Abou Bakr to Medina where people were waiting to welcome him.
