In Episode 9 of Life of the Final Messenger ﷺ, persecution in Makkah reaches a level where faith must seek refuge beyond its homeland.
The Prophet ﷺ advises some companions to migrate to Abyssinia — a land ruled by the just king Al-Najashi. Leaving behind their homes, they cross the Red Sea in one of Islam’s earliest migrations.
Quraysh react swiftly, sending ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ with gifts to bring them back. But in the royal court, Jaʿfar ibn Abī Ṭālib delivers a powerful testimony of Islam — moving the king to tears.
Abyssinia becomes Islam’s first sanctuary — proof that faith, when persecuted, will always find a place of protection.
