Abstract: (164 Views)
Hijrah (migration) is one of the most significant concepts in the history of the Abrahamic religions, having exerted profound influences on various communities and played a pivotal role in the formation of religious civilizations. In Islamic history, the migration of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from Mecca to Medina marks a decisive turning point in the establishment of the Islamic polity and the emergence of a new Islamic civilization. Similarly, the migration of Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) from Egypt to the Promised Land constituted the foundation for the formation of the Israelite community and the codification of its law and religious system. This study offers a comparative analysis of the migrations of Prophet Muhammad and Prophet Moses within their historical and cultural contexts, seeking to examine the similarities and differences between these two momentous events. Employing a descriptive-analytical method and drawing upon Qur’anic, hadith, and historical sources, the article explores the social, political, and cultural impacts of these migrations on the expansion of the Islamic and Jewish religious civilizations. The findings indicate that both migrations were divinely ordained acts aimed at liberation from oppression and the establishment of faith-based communities. They share common features such as confrontation with tyrannical rule, the necessity of careful planning, and the decisive role of charismatic leadership in guiding the migrants. Nevertheless, significant differences in scope and long-term consequences led to distinct structural formations and civilizational trajectories in the two traditions.
