Importance of Re-Planning

Ancient Makkah had become a controversial spot for the Islamic mission. When a place becomes controversial for one’s work, it is difficult to remain there and work normally. Thus the Prophet gathered information about other places and found that Madinah, which was then called Yathrib, was free of all such controversies. The Prophet hence decided to migrate to Madinah. Therefore, migration means re-planning of one’s mission. Migration was not merely leaving of one place for another, rather it involved a re-planning of prophetic mission. At the time of his migration, the Prophet made a very historical statement: “I was ordered to migrate to a town which will swallow all other towns. People call it Yathrib and it is Madinah” (Sahih Bukhari). The Prophet had predicted that his re-planning would give new success to Islam. In this way, as part of a great vision, the Prophet decided to leave Makkah and migrate to Madinah.
