This lecture discusses the unique sanctity of Mecca, highlighting its historical role as a place of peace amidst a turbulent Arab society.

This demonstrates Allah’s provision of security and peace to the city, earning it the title 'City of Peace.' This inherent protection continues to be a defining characteristic of Mecca today.
