Medina (Al-Madinah al-Munawwarah-The Radiant City) is the second holiest city in Islam. It was the destination of the "Hijrah" (migration) and the place where the first Islamic state was established. Medina is home to the "Masjid an-Nabawi" and the tomb of the Prophet (PBUH). It is known for its "Sakinah" (tranquility) and the "Rahmah" (mercy) of its people ("Al-Ansar"). The Prophet said that faith returns to Medina like a snake returns to its hole. For the believer, Medina is the city of "Sunnah" and "Adab," where the "light" of Islam was perfected and spread to the world.
