Arabian Peninsula before Islam is a very backward area. Most people are pagan Arabs and the others are followers of Christianity and Judaism. Mecca when it is a sacred place for the Arabs. because in that place there are idols of their religion and also there Zamzam Well and the most important is the Kaaba.

Prophet Muhammad was born in Mecca in the Year of the Elephant is on the 12th of Rabi al Early or on April 21, (570 or 571 AD). Prophet Muhammad was an orphan after his father Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib died when he was still in the womb and the mother Aminah bint Wahab died when he was 7 years old. Then he was raised by his grandfather Abdul Muttalib. After his grandfather died he was raised well by his uncle, Abu Talib. Prophet Muhammad later married to Siti Khadijah when she was 25 years old. He was a goat herder.

Prophet Muhammad never appointed hakim.pada age of 35 years, the city flooded Mecca, he did not like the atmosphere of the city of Mecca is filled with people who have high social issues. In addition to worship idols, the people of Mecca at that time also bury female babies. Prophet Muhammad spent more time in seclusion in the cave of Hira to seek tranquility and think about the inhabitants of Mecca. When Prophet Muhammad was 40 years old, he was visited by the Angel Gabriel. After that he taught Islamic teachings secretly closest to the people known as "as-Sabiqun al-Awwalun (The first people who converted to Islam)" and then openly to the entire population of Mecca, after dropping revelation of al- Quran Surat al-Hijr verse 94.

In 622, the Prophet Muhammad and his followers moved from Mecca to Medina. This event is named after the Hijrah. Since the event began the Islamic calendar or Hijri calendar.


Residents of Mecca and Medina fought with Prophet Muhammad. with good results although there were among the Muslims who were killed. Eventually the Muslims became stronger, and managed to conquer Mecca. After the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. died, the entire Arabian Peninsula under Islamic domination.
