Makkah Al Mukarramah Library ( Arabic: مَكْتَبَة مَكَّة ٱلْمُكَرَّمَة, romanized: Maktabah Makkah Al-Mukarramah) [3] [4] is a library near the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Since it is believed to stand on the spot where the Islamic prophet Muhammad was born, it is also known as Bayt al- Mawlid ( Arabic: بَيْت ٱلْمَوْلِد, lit. 'House of the Birth'). [1] [2]
Aminah bint Wahb ibn Abd Manaf is believed to have given birth to Muhammad [5] in the month of Rabi' al-Awwal, [6] circa 53 B.H. or 570 C.E. [7] [8] [9] Her husband, Abdullah ibn Abd al-Muttalib, had died three [10] to six [11] months prior. [12]
After consulting senior scholars, 'Abdul-'Aziz bin 'Abdul-Rahman Al Saud, the founding king of modern Saudi Arabia, established the modern library over the site of Muhammad's birth. [1]
A second important aspect of the meaning of the term emerges in Meccan revelations concerning the practice of the Prophet Abraham. Here it stands for the straight path (al- dīn al- ḥanīf) toward which Abraham and other messengers called the people [...] The Qurʿān asserts that this was the path or practice followed by Abraham [...] In the final analysis, dīn encompasses social and spiritual, as well the legal and political behaviour of the believers as a comprehensive way of life, a connotation wider than the word "religion."
