Sahabi Tree, Tree of Al Buqayawiyya (The Blessed Tree) (Arabic شجرالمبارکہ) is a 1500-year-old tree located in Safawi, Jordan.[1] 156 km from Amman, the capital of Jordan.[2] The tree is a Atlantic Pistachio tree.[3] It is located on the old trade route between Mecca and Damascus. Caravans used to travel by this route.[4][5]

Religious importance[edit]

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.[6] Under this tree, the monk Bahira foretold about the prophethood of Muhammad.[7][8][9]

It is a tourist attraction in Jordan, with many Muslims visiting the tree every year.[10][11][12]

From Azraq, take the road north to Safawi for about 30 km, which is about 14 km away toward al-Buqayawiyya.[13][14]
