Jabal Al Nour turns green after continuous rains in Makkah

Jabal Al Nour, the mountain housing the historic Cave of Hira where the first revelation of the Quran was received by the Prophet Muhammad, has turned lush and green following continuous rainfall in Makkah.

The images show the entire mountain blanketed in greenery, an unusual occurrence for the arid region. Jabal Al Noor, a revered site in Islamic history, is typically characterized by its rocky and barren terrain.

However, the prolonged rainfall has transformed its landscape, aligning it with a notable hadith of the Prophet Muhammad.

The rains that led to this remarkable change are expected to continue in the coming days, according to meteorological forecasts. Authorities have advised pilgrims and residents to exercise caution while traveling, as the heavy rainfall may lead to flooding in some areas.

The phenomenon has also added a unique dimension for visitors to the holy city, as Jabal Al Nour’s green covering has made the sacred mountain an even more striking symbol of the transformative power of nature.
