SILENT AUCTION HIGHLIGHTS 

Ma'thur al-Fijar
  Prophet Muhammad ﷺ first sword: Al-Ma'thur

Bid on a 3D Printed replica of the sword - Own a beautifully constructed piece of Islamic History for you to treasure.

Al-Ma'thur, also known as "Ma'thur al-Fijar", is the sword which was owned by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ before he received his first revelations in Mecca.  It was willed to him by his father, Abdullah ibn Abdul-Muttalib.  The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ migrated with the sword from Mecca to Medina, and the sword remained with him ﷺ until it was transferred, along with other war equipment, to Ali ibn Abi Talib.  The blade is 99 cm in length. The handle is a gold alloy in the shape of two serpents, and is encrusted with emeralds and turquoise.  Today the sword is housed in the Topkapi Museum, Istanbul, Turkey. 

This replica was built to scale with over 180 man hours in design and hand work and stone setting.
