A.|last=Shamsi|title=The Date of Hijrah|journal=Islamic Studies|volume=23|year=1984|pages=189–224, 289–323}}</ref> or [[June 17]]<ref name=FazlurRehman51>{{cite book|last=Shaikh|first=Fazlur Rehman|title=Chronology of Prophetic Events|year=2001|publisher=Ta-Ha Publishers|location=London|pages=51–52}}</ref> &ndash; The [[Prophets and messengers in Islam|Islamic prophet]] [[Muhammad]], after being commanded by God Almighty, secretly leaves his home in [[Mecca]] to make the [[Hijrah]] (emigrate) to Yathrib (later renamed by him [[Medina]]), along with his [[Sahabah|companion]] [[Abu Bakr]]. They take refuge in the [[Cave of Thawr]] south of Mecca for three days, departing on September 13 or June 21.
* [[September 20]]<ref name=Shamsi/> or [[June 28]]<ref name=FazlurRehman51/> &ndash; Muhammad does not enter Yathrib directly, but stops at its outlying environs of Quba. He establishes the [[Quba Mosque]] here, the first mosque of Islam. On July 2 (or September 24) he makes his first visit to Yathrib for Friday prayers.
* [[October 4]]<ref name=Shamsi/> or [[July 13]] &ndash; After a fourteen days' stay in Quba, Muhammad finally moves from Quba to Yathrib, and is greeted cordially by its people. Here he drafts the [[Constitution of Medina]], an agreement between the various Muslim, Jewish, Christian and pagan tribal communities in the city, forming the basis of a multi-religious Islamic state, and begins construction of the [[Al-Masjid an-Nabawi]] Mosque. Later during the caliphate of [[Umar]] in 638, the lunar year during which the emigration to Medina occurred (Friday 16 July 622 – 4 July 623) is designated "Year One" of the new [[Hijri year|Hijri era]] (''Anno Hegirae'' &ndash; AH).
