The 3D journey needs JavaScript and WebGL. The model replays the Hijrah in eight phases: the night in Makkah and the two laden she-camels; the cave of Jabal Thawr with its mouth left empty; the sea-shore road with the guide walking ahead; the noon halt and Suraqah's horse sinking in the sand; the tent of Umm Maʿbad; Qubāʾ and the first mosque; the entry into Madīnah; the welcome and the household's arrival. Figures are faceless; the Prophet ﷺ is never depicted. Every claim traces to data/ledger/hijrah.json.
