Brothers and Sisters,
Assalam-o-Alaikum Wa Rahamatullah Wa Barakatuh,,,,,
This tower is set up for your comfort and we have been keen to furnish it with all means for your comfort during your stay in this secure land adjacent to Allah's House. On this site, the Prophet (PBUH) has set foot during (Makkah's conquest) and during his (Farewell pilgrimage), as cited in his Biographies and Traditions, such as: Narrated Abu Al Waleed, who said, I was told by Al-Mahdi Ibn Abi Al Mahdi, after Add Al Razzaq, after Maamar, after al Zahri, after Ali Ibn Al Hussain, after Amr Ibn Uthman, after Osama Ibn Zaid that he said: Oh! Messenger of Allah: "where would you settle tomorrow", during his pilgrimage. He said: "Ogail hasn't left any suitable site for us". And added: "with the will of Allah we will settle at Kheef Bani Kinanh tomorrow".
Not far away from where you are is Hira Cave (Al Noor Mountain) and beside you is the Royal archeological palace, which opens on Al Abtah's Mountain Pass, which is mentioned by the poet Al-Farazdaq in his poem commending Ali Ibn Al Hussain. This pass of course is and extension of the valley of Ibrahim, may Allah bless him, leading to the Holy Sanctuary of (Minah), which is followed by Ibrahim and other prophets, peace and blessing be upon them, during performing their rituals. This same pass has witnessed great historical events, where it had been a meeting place for Arab tribes during the pre-Islamic paganism age, to express pride FOR their deeds and battles, after finishing their Hajj rituals. However after the advent of Islam, Allah Almighty revealed in his Holy Book: { so when you accomplish your holy rites, celebrate the praises of Allah, as you used to celebrate the praises of your fathers, yea, with far more heart and soul) (Quran an: 2/200).
This is kheef Bani Kinanh on which the tribe of Quraish had made an alliance with the tribe of Bani Kinanh against Bani Hashim not to make marriage contracts, commercial deals or inheritance deals with them. That accord had lead to isolating the prophet (PBUH) in his house at the mountain passp of Bani Hashim for three years.
We have been keen to let you stay under the redolence of history and to smell its fragrance which fills the sides of this valley that is valued by the great men who have shouldered the flag of monotheism and made this Ummah enter the faith of Islam, and to remember with us the biography of our beloved prophet (PBUH), his companions, days of his youth and endeavors of his call and to supplicate with us Allah Almighty in an atmosphere full of comfort and tranquility.
Therefore, we are concerned and pleased to make your stay comfortable and to make you carry along with you good memories about the abode of revelation and the start of the Message at Kheef Bani Kinanh hoping to see you soon in another visit.
Again, all our staff are ready and happy to serve you during your visit and wish you a happy stay at Kheef Bani Kinanh.
