التنعيم
Tan'im is historically significant as the place where النبي Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم) instructed Aisha (رضي الله عن her) to go to enter الإحرام for her العمرة during the Farewell الحج, after she had completed الحج. The مسجد built at this location is therefore known as Masjid Aisha. Today, Tan'im is the most commonly used point for people residing in or visiting مكة to exit the Haram boundary and re-enter الإحرام for an additional العمرة. Taxis and buses regularly transport الحجاج between the Grand المسجد and Tan'im. The location marks the boundary between the Haram (sacred precinct) and the Hill (non-sacred area), which is necessary to cross before entering a new الإحرام.
