Mecca, sometimes spelled Makkah, is the holiest city in Islam and is visited by Muslims from all over the globe. Not only is Mecca the city in where the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was born, but it is also the home of the Great Mosque, which is also known as al-Masjid al-Haram. This mosque is considered to be the holiest place in all of Islam. In addition, when Muslims pray, they face Mecca, which is the holiest site in Islam. In addition, in order to fulfill the requirements of the Hajj, also known as the Pilgrimage, which is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, one must remain in the city for an extended period of time. Mecca is considered by Muslims to be the most sacred of all the holy places in the world. But even before the arrival of Islam, the city had already established a reputation as an important economic and religious hub in its own right. The location of Mecca as an oasis on a trade route linking the Mediterranean Sea with Southern Arabia, East Africa, and the subcontinent of India is primarily responsible for this phenomenon. During the final Umrah travel packages allow for buying and commerce to take place. In ancient times, Mecca was an important oasis along the caravan route that linked the Mediterranean Sea with South Arabia, East Africa, and South Asia. This route connected Mecca with all of these regions. The town gained in prominence as a Roman and Byzantine commerce and religious centre because of its location nearly exactly in the middle of the route between Marib in the south and Petra in the north. It was thought for a considerable amount of time that the fact that Ptolemy included Macoraba, a city located in the heart of Arabia, in his Guide to Geography served as proof that Mecca was well known to the Hellenistic world. Nonetheless, during the latter half of the 20th century, a few pieces of scholarly study have raised questions about whether or not Macoraba is, in fact, Mecca.

In Islamic mythology, the construction of the Kaaba as a dwelling for God is attributed to Abraham and Ishmael, Abraham's son by his wife Hagar. Before the advent of Islam in the seventh century, the stone structure in the form of a cube was considered to be the holiest location in Mecca. Before the arrival of Islamic rule, the city was ruled by a number of distinct Yemeni tribes. It was built as a city-state by the Quraysh, who had significant trading links to the rest of Arabia, Ethiopia, and Europe throughout this time. Mecca became a center for tribal gatherings, as well as trade and religious tourism, throughout time.

In the years that followed the year 570, when Hazrat Muhammad S.A.W. was born, the city's significance as a religious center rose, and this development continued. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) was expelled from Mecca in the year 622; nevertheless, he went back to the city eight years later and finally seized control of it. Mecca is considered to be the birthplace of Islam. He put a stop to the practice of building idols and designated Mecca as the most holy site for Muslims to worship God. He did this so that people would no longer make idols. Since then, this city has been revered across the Islamic world as the religion's most significant and essential spiritual hub. Since the old caravan route started to decline, Mecca's economic significance has decreased, and ever since then, the city has relied mostly on the money created by the Hajj as well as the gifts provided by Muslim kings. Mecca's dependence on these two sources of revenue has allowed it to survive despite the decline of the ancient caravan route.
