Entrance of the Cave Hira in the Mount Hira in Mecca city of Saudi Arabia and the pilgrims climbing to the mount for entering the cave. Before the Prophet Muhammad (saaw) was charged with the prophethood by Allah (swt) he would go for spiritual retreats to the cave in this mount. The Prophet Muhammad had received the first Koran verses from our Lord in the Cave Hira on this mount and seen the Angel Gabriel first time in its true form here. The first Koran verses revealed to Him on this mount were these: ``READ! IN THE NAME OF YOUR LORD WHO CREATES. CREATES MAN FROM A CLOT OF BLOOD. READ! AND YOUR LORD IS MOST GENEROUS. WHO TEACHES BY THE PEN. TEACHES MEN THAT WHICH HE KNEW NOT.`` (The Holy Koran: 96:1-5.) (The picture was taken by Mr. Mustafa one of the visitors of Artislamic.com in 2003 Hajj season.)
