Al-Qaswaa is the camel of the Messenger of Allah (salallahu alayhi wa sallam), which he preferred because of its stamina and endurance. No other camel beats it in a race. It is the camel on which the Messenger of Allah migrated from Makkah to Madinah. The spot on which it knelt down is the same spot where the mosque of the Prophet was located in Madinah. It is the camel on which the Prophet conquered Makkah and the same camel on which he made his first and only hajj.
