The Hijra, the migration of Prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Medina, marks the beginning of the Islamic calendar and started in the 12th year of Prophethood (Nabawat) on the 12th of Rabi-ul-Awwal. This date is traditionally accepted as the start of the Hijri calendar year and is historically consistent with Islamic sources.

A
Nuh (A.S)

According to Islamic tradition, Prophet Nuh (Noah) (A.S) is considered the first prophet after Adam and is traditionally credited with many early human advancements. While there is no explicit detailed hadith or Quranic verse stating he invented the comb, classical Islamic teachings and scholarly narrations often attribute the invention of basic tools like the comb to early prophets such as Nuh (A.S).
