The hijrah, the migration of Muhammad and his followers from Mecca to Medina in 622 CE, was crucial for several reasons. It marked the establishment of the first Muslim community and allowed Islam to flourish away from the persecution faced in Mecca. The hijrah also symbolized the transition from a phase of vulnerability to one of political and social organization, leading to the expansion of the Muslim Ummah and the eventual establishment of a state based on Islamic principles. This event is so significant that it marks the beginning of the Islamic calendar.
