Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Mosque of the Companions (Arabic: مَـسْـجِـد الـصَّـحَـابَـة‎, translit. Masjid aṣ-Ṣaḥābah) is a mosque in the city of Massawa, Eritrea. Dating to the early 7th century CE, it is believed to be the first mosque on the African continent. It was reportedly built by companions of the Islamic Nabī (Arabic: نَـبِي‎, Prophet) Muhammad who came here to flee persecution by people in the Hejazi city of Mecca, present-day Saudi Arabia.
