Migration to Medina
Abdullah bin Sa‘d relates from his father that when the Holy Prophet (sa) was migrating to Medina, he reached Kharraz (this is the name of a valley situated near Hijaz, and it is also said that it is one of the valleys of Medina). When he was leaving Kharraz, he met Hazrat Talha (ra) bin Ubaidullah in the morning, who was part of the caravan returning from Syria. They gave the Holy Prophet (sa) and Hazrat Abu Bakr (ra) Syrian clothes to wear and informed the Holy Prophet (sa) that the people of Medina had been eagerly awaiting his arrival for a long time. The Holy Prophet (sa) then went forth with a greater pace, whilst Hazrat Talha (ra) made his way to Mecca. When he completed his work there, he later migrated with the family of Hazrat Abu Bakr (ra) and reached Medina.
