In the course of this study, the author has conducted dozens of field expeditions collecting data, recording GPS coordinates, identifying landmarks, calculating distances, and covering as much as possible the entire route by foot. He has also examined every available resource from Hadith and Seerah literature and narrations, historical documents, maps from the eighteenth century through the present, as well as conducting extensive interviews with local residents to glean information handed down through generations. After analyzing, synthesizing, and cross-checking the information from this research he determined as precisely as possible the exact route of the Prophet's (blessings and peace be upon him) Hijrah.
