Cave Hira- the site where Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. first met angel Jibrail. This is where the first revelation of quran were given to him. (the first two verses of Al-Alaq)
This is a Quran manuscript from the 7th century, written in the Hijazi script. Below is a modern version with colour-coded Tajweed rules.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI'm writing you in regards to the photograph above of the Cave Hira. I work for Explore, a project of the Annenberg Foundation, and our team is working on a documentary film encouraging tolerance and awareness of Islam and the Prophet Mohammad. We are interested in licensing the rights to briefly display the above photograph within the body of the documentary. If you do not own the rights to the image, perhaps you could point me in the right direction?
Explore is a philanthropic multimedia organization that makes documentary films showcasing extraordinary nonprofit efforts and leaders around the world. We help open the door to a world most people never get to see - one often neglected by the mainstream media. Viewers meet the people affected by the positive change catalyzed by philanthropy, and just as importantly, the leaders creating it. We are a fully not-for-profit, educational institution.

of the type of content we produce. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have. I look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Barrett Ross
Associate Producer
