The Myth of the Pigeon in Mecca
Anggunnya Merpati Around the Grand Mosque with Various Myths and Stories History. Pigeons are a favorite of many poultry.
Around the Grand Mosque there are many groups of wild pigeons feeding on the streets and courtyards of the mosque. When passing through the courtyard of the Grand Mosque, pigeons with the number reached hundreds of flying and fighting over food deliberately given by the pilgrims who were there.
Sometimes the bird is tame because even though we are not far away. The pigeons in Mecca and Madinah were the same as other Merpati, having no special features compared to other pigeons. But Mecca pigeons are often found in the courtyard of the Grand Mosque is different from the type of European or Indonesian pigeons. The colors are unique and the fur is adorned with two similar cross-lines of the rank of an officer in the army.
Narrated, pigeon Mecca associated with the history of hijrah Prophet Muhammad SAW. At that time the Messenger of Allah with the friends of Abubakar is being chased by the Quraysh, he then hid in the Cave of Hira to escape from the chase. At that moment at the cave door nesting spiders and at the same time there are also doves laying eggs.
Seeing that the cave door was closed by a spider and there were doves laying, the Quraysh made sure it was impossible for someone to hide in the cave, and the Messenger of Allah and Abubakar r.a. finally escaped.
If we are in the holy land of Mecca, we are forbidden to catch much less to hunt the dove, whether in ihram or not. Except after being outside the city of Mecca, and even then not for the ihram.
The Word of God: "" O ye who believe! You shall not kill the game when ye are ihram ".
And the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said. "Verily Allah glorifies the city of Mecca, so it is not lawful for someone before me and also after me. He is lawful for me for a moment from the daytime. Can not be revoked the plants, should not be cut the tree and should not be expelled game animals "
Some Arab historians suspect that the pigeons surrounding the Temple, Mecca and Medina are descendants of a pair of pigeons that once built their nest in front of the cave where the Messenger of Allah and Abu Bakr ash Siddiq hid from the pursuit of the Quraysh.
According to some people also pigeons around Mecca have different characteristics of pigeons in general. The colors are unique and the fur is adorned with two similar cross-lines of the rank of an officer in the army.
Apparently the tame pigeon bands surrounded the Ka'ba, spinning seven times as if they were in a compound. Maybe people think it is just a coincidence, but if we remember back to the Power of God then we will soon realize that nothing is impossible for God. In addition there is one more case that would be more astounding to us.
The sky of the Arabian Peninsula is famous for its many species of birds of prey such as eagles and alap-alap. Pigeons are easy prey for eagles. But strangely, no eagle has ever been seen whirling after a pigeon as its prey.
The people of Mecca are not much different, they are famous for this crowd of pigeons. They were never troubled by the presence of these doves, and even they made a deal not to slaughter the birds.
They also liked to let the doves go into their homes as if they were part of his family. Not infrequently the birds also share the ration of food
