Sahabi Tree, or the Tree of al-Buqayawiyya (The Blessed Tree) (Arabic: ôìñé çÃÂèÃÂÃÂùçÃÂÃÂé), is a 1500-year-old tree located in Safawi, Jordan, from Amman, the capital of Jordan. The tree is an Atlantic Pistachio tree. It is located on the old trade route between Mecca and Damascus. Caravans used to travel by this route.
It is believed that one such caravan was going to Syria from Mecca, when Muhammad sat down under its shadow at the age of 12. He was accompanying his uncle Abu Talib. It is said that under this tree, the monk Bahira foretold about the prophethood of Muhammad.
It is a tourist attraction in Jordan, with many Muslims visiting the tree every year.
King Abdullah of Jordan ordered to construct a fence around the tree to safeguard the tree.
