Dear Friend, I have traveled to Makkah and Madinah for business, and have met a man named Muhammad as well as his followers. Muhammad and his followers believe in a religion called Islam, which Muhammad teaches about. Muhammad is a teacher of the faith and religion of Islam. He was born in 570 C.E. in this city, Makkah in Arabia.
He is a man who received the word of God. Mohammed wanted all of his followers to submit themselves to God. This rule almost separated the poor and the wealthy. Mohammed and his followers were forced to leave and to goto Medina. The Muslims read a holy book containing Islam’s fundamental beliefs from God, called the Korah.
In the city of Mecca, a man started a new religion known as Islam. This man was Muhammad who was born in about 570 C.E. While going to pray in a cave in the mountains of Mecca, an angel named Gabriel visited Muhammad. Gabriel proclaimed that Muhammad was a prophet, messenger of God. As he received messages from God, Muhammad began to teach and recite them to others. Over time, Islam attracted new followers through military conquest, trade, and the appeal of message, which contributed to the rapid spread of Islam.
By 30 CE, Muhammad had become an active merchant in Mecca. Muhammad was aware of many different religions and often engaged or interacted with them on different occasions. By 610 CE, when Muhammad was 40, he endured a metaphysical and holy enlightenment that changed his spiritual beliefs and eventually changed the world. His beliefs were that Allah was the ruler of the universe, idolizing false gods was
Elijah Muhammad, born Elijah Robert Poole (October 7, 1897 – February 25, 1975), was an American religious leader, black separatist, and self-proclaimed Messenger of Allah who served as the leader of the Nation of Islam (NOI) from 1934 until his passing in 1975. In the 1930s, Muhammad officially founded the Nation of Islam, a religious movement originating from the teachings of Wallace Fard Muhammad, which focused on promoting black empowerment, economic independence, and racial segregation. Muhammad's teachings influenced the conversions of prominent figures such as Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali to the Nation of Islam, who both played significant roles in raising national awareness of the organization. Wallace Fard, was the founder of the first
Islam is one of the largest religions today and this is how Islam started. Muhammad was from Mecca which was a spiritual place for many religions. Mecca is where Muhammad began his preaching. Mount Hira was where Muhammad first realized their was one god, Allah in the year 610 CE. Muhammad was sent away in the year 622 CE and came back to Mecca in 628 CE with all of his new followers to continue preaching to other people.
That means that the Muhammad role in Islamic belief is very different from that of Jesus in Christianity. Muhammad is viewed as a Prophet or messenger while Christians consider Jesus to be the incarnation of the deity itself. Little is known about the early life of Muhammad not even his birth date. But he was born around 570CE. He traveled with Caravan and Prophethood begins when he was 40 years old.
Mohammad was one of the best known Muslims throughout the world because of how drastically he changed the Islamic belief system. He was the last prophet and taught the ways of God. He was a political and spiritual leader of the community of the city he cared for, Mecca. All of Arabia was under influence as well. He accepted the miraculous birth of Jesus but denied the divinity of Christ and rejected the Crucifixion as a Jewish falsehood.
Much of what we know about Muhammad and the early days of Islam comes from three sources: Qur’an: word of God as revealed to Muhammad Hadith: the recorded sayings and actions of Muhammad Sira: biographies [a story of someone
Muhammad taught what was called the Quran, which was direct teachings from God. He also inspired many people with his own teachings that were similar to the Quran, but the technique was different. Many people at first rejected Muhammad’s teachings, these non-believers were persecuted. He told everyone the commandants
The given prophecy outlines his role as the prophet to bring about a new form of monotheism to the Middle East. However, Muhammad does not recognize this until his wife, Khadija, takes him to her cousin, a Christian monk. At first, Muhammad does not take any steps to spread this religion and indeed takes more prompting from God to finally spread his religion across Mecca. After this forced reminder from God, Muhammad takes on the role of an outspoken prophet for monotheism. Unfortunately, ancient Mecca was not well suited for the views of monotheism.

Both religious figures were the same in that they grew up in poverty, a very basic humble upbringing, they also lived a life of persecution for their beliefs. Muhammad, like Jesus, respected women even though the culture at the time did not. Chatting with Ahmad, he explains what Muhammad teaches Muslims, he teaches about Islam, to worship God alone, and also that Islam enjoins good characteristics such as truthfulness, patience, deliberation, kindness, humility, modesty, keeping promises, dignity, mercy, justice, courage, patience, friendliness, contentment, chastity, good treatment, tolerance, trustworthiness, gratitude for favors, and self-control
To fully understand the Islamic religion, we must understand the story of Muhammad because his prophecy was so influential and his message still continues to exist. Muhammad was the last prophet that was sent by Allah. Allah has chosen Muhammad because he has similar characteristics to Allah, and he Prophet was also featured in the community as a leader of Islam (Sechzer, 2004). Muhammad is a role model to every Muslim in the world. His message was that all men must worship the one true God, Allah.
