Quick fact: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) performed his farewell Hajj, Hajja tul Wida, in 10 Hijri.

Explanation

Hajja tul Wida (the Farewell Pilgrimage) took place in 10 Hijri, just a few months before the Prophet's (PBUH) passing. It was the only Hajj he performed after migration to Madina. During this pilgrimage, he delivered the famous Farewell Sermon at Mount Arafat, which summarized the core teachings of Islam and emphasized human equality, rights, and justice.

Good to know

The Farewell Hajj occurred in the 10th year after Hijrah, and the Prophet (PBUH) passed away approximately three months later in Rabi-ul-Awwal 11 Hijri. This pilgrimage is significant because it was the only Hajj the Prophet (PBUH) performed after Hijrah, and it served as a model for the rituals of Hajj that Muslims follow to this day. The Farewell Sermon delivered during this Hajj is considered a comprehensive charter of human rights in Islam.
