Medina is the capital of the Al-Madinah Region in Saudi Arabia. At the city's heart is al-Masjid an-Nabawi 'The Prophet's Mosque' which is the burial place of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Medina is one of the three holiest cities in Islam the other two being Mecca and Jerusalem. Medina was Muhammad's destination in his Hijrah migration from Makkah and became the capital of a rapidly increasing Muslim Empire under Muhammad's leadership serving as the power base of Islam and where Muhammad's Ummah Community composed of both locals and immigrants from Muhammad's original home of Mecca developed. Medina is home to three prominent mosques namely al-Masjid an-Nabawi Quba Mosque and Masjid al-Qiblatayn 'The mosque of the two Qiblas'. Muslims believe that the chronologically final surahs of the Quran were revealed to Muhammad in Medina and are called Medinan surahs in contrast to the earlier Meccan surahs. N. p.

Publicado según acta del Parlamento en 1760. Se trata de la reedición de un grabado de Henry Overton II publicado originalmente en Londres por Robert Sayer en 1752. El mapa pertenece a una de las ediciones realizadas tras el terremoto de Lisboa de 1755. Suele identificarse como una edición londinense pero por sus características puede que haya sido impreso en París al estilo de Maillet de la misma época probablemente imitando las ediciones inglesas. Este mismo grabado fue copiado en muchas ediciones posteriores solo o en libros siendo una de las vistas más conocidas de Lisboa antes del Terremoto. unknown
