The Life and Teachings of Muhammad

This is a picture of many people honoring Muhammad. 

Muhammad was born in Mecca but then when 6, his mother gave him to nomads and was taught and learned by them. In his 30s, Muhammad got the "message" from god while being in a cave in Mount Hira saying that he should be a prophet of god, which he then turned into. Muhammad then found a group and began a new religion, Muslim. Muhammad taught people to believe in only one god and to respect and honor others around them, but even though some people didn't approve of his teachings, he still fought in his belief.

Arabia before Muhammad

         Before Muhammad was born, Arabian society was divided into many social levels. Women, for example, were highly cherished and protected that it lead to bloody fights, just to protect the women. Not only did they just fight for women's protection, but they also fought for freedom between cities and countries.
         Mecca, a religious center, was not only a place for religion, but was also a trading spot. Many people traded goods from the Mediterranean to South Arabia, East Africa, and South Asia.

         Mecca was the one place that Muhammad was known for, for he has shaped and changed Arabia to be a better place.
