As-Sayl Al-Kabīr (Arabic: ٱلسَّيْل ٱلْكَبِيْر) is a village in Makkah Region, western Saudi Arabia,[1] which is located some distance from the city of Taif. Abdullah ibn Abbas narrated that his cousin, the Islamic Prophet Muhammad, had fixed Qarn al-Manāzil (قَرْن ٱلْمَنَازِل) as the miqat for the people of Najd. It has also been used as a miqat by people coming from places like Oman, the U.A.E., Pakistan, Malaysia and Australia.[2]
