Quick fact: The Holy Prophet (PBUH) was born in the house of his uncle Hazrat Abu Talib in Makkah.

Explanation

The house where the Holy Prophet (PBUH) was born belonged to his uncle Hazrat Abu Talib, who later became his guardian after the death of Abdul Muttalib. This house was located in the valley of Banu Hashim in Makkah, near the Safa hill. Today, a library stands at this site in Makkah. Hazrat Abu Talib played a crucial role in protecting and supporting the Prophet (PBUH) during the early years of Islam.

Good to know

The Holy Prophet (PBUH) was born on 12th Rabi-ul-Awwal in the Year of the Elephant (Aam-ul-Feel), corresponding to 571 AD. His father Hazrat Abdullah had passed away about six months before his birth, and his mother was Hazrat Amina bint Wahb. After birth, the Prophet (PBUH) was first nursed by Thuwaybah, the freed slave of Abu Lahab, and later by Halima Saadia of the Banu Saad tribe.
