Building the Mosque and Brotherhood

622 CE (1 AH)

The first thing the Prophet ﷺ did in Madinah was build a mosque. He worked with his own hands alongside his companions. Then he created a bond of brotherhood between the Muhajirun (people from Makkah) and the Ansar (people of Madinah). The Ansar shared their homes and money with their new brothers.

The lesson

Sharing and helping newcomers builds a strong community. We are all brothers and sisters.
