Why are mount Hira and Gabriel important?

Mount Hira is significant in Islamic tradition as the site where the Prophet Muhammad received his first revelation from the Angel Gabriel (Jibril) in 610 CE. This event marked the beginning of his prophethood and the foundation of Islam. Gabriel is revered as the messenger of God, delivering divine revelations to prophets, including Muhammad, and is central to understanding the transmission of God's messages in Islamic belief. Together, they symbolize the initiation of a transformative spiritual journey and the communication between the divine and humanity.
