It is situated about 180 km inland from the Red Sea in a well-watered oasis where fruit, dates, vegetables, and grain are grown. Medina was known as Yathrib before the flight (Hegira) of Muhammad The chief building is al-Masjid a-l Nabawi, the Prophet's Mosque, which contains the tombs of Muhammad, his daughter Fatima, and the caliphs Umar and Abu Bakr. Medina is the seat of Islamic University. The pilgrimage to Mecca usually includes a side trip to Medina. In both cities, only Muslims are allowed to enter.
