Within the phenomenological framework of Edmund Husserl, perceptions of territory and senses of spatial belonging within a political community emerge from structures of consciousness that are continuously constituted and reproduced within the lifeworld. In this context, following the migration of the Muslims to Medina and the establishment of the Prophetic State, a distinctive form of political lifeworld emerged among the Muslim community. This transformation endowed Muslims’ understanding of the grounds of their collective coexistence within the territorial framework of the Prophetic State with a new meaning. Drawing upon the works of scholars and commentators of this period, this study investigates, within the framework of Husserlian thought, the manner in which Muslims constituted and experienced the meaning of their political cohesion in Medina during the era of the Prophetic State. The findings suggest that, during this period, the concept of the Islamic Ummah gradually became the horizon of consciousness through which Muslims understood and interpreted the grounds of their political cohesion within the city of Medina, which repeatedly underscored the unity of the Islamic community and thereby reinforced a shared horizon of collective identity among Muslims. Moreover, the geographical coexistence of Muslims and Jews in Medina constituted an integral part of the intersubjective process through which Muslims endowed the territory of the Prophetic polity with meaning. This process of territorialization was initiated with the reorientation of the Muslims’ qibla from Jerusalem toward Mecca and gradually manifested itself in the form of military confrontations with the Jewish communities. On the other hand, the novel political-economic order of the Prophetic state brought about a reconfiguration of Muslims’ economic and social relations through the institutionalization of mechanisms endowed Muslims’ perception of the political geography of Medina, as well as their understanding of the rationale for defending its boundaries, with new meaning.
