The boulder with the two Paleo-Arabic inscriptions. The top inscription was likely carved by Ḥanẓalah bin Abī ʿĀmir, a companion of Muhammad. (Image credit: Taif-Mecca Epigraphic Survey Project, King Faisal Center for Research and Islamic Studies, directed by Ahmad Al-Jallad and Hythem Sidky)
The writing is only the second confirmed inscription whose attribution connects to Muhammad.
