Having opposed the idolatry of his fellow tribesmen of the Kuriysh and the dominant aristocracy - the Kaaba Guardian, Muhammad completely broke with paganism. Already in the first public speech, Muhammad showed himself a prophet of God's anger, an exposure of unbelief and a preacher of divine justice.

The central idea of Muhammad is a faith in life after death. The first stage of his ministry in Mecca began with a warning about the trial and rewarding: “Truly - the day of separation is a certain time, the day when they get into the pipe, and you will come in crowds.
And the sky will open and become gates ... Truly, Geenna is an ambush, for the transgressing - the place of return, in which they will stay for centuries, not tasting there either coolness or drinking ... After all, for the God -fearing there is a place of salvation, gardens and vineyards, and full -breasted peers, and the cup full. So Muhammad proclaimed a new religion - Islam, which means humility to will and the establishments of the only god.
The message itself is contained in the Qur'an, in which they see the miracle of faith, and not the work of Muhammad. In the whirlpool of conflicts of numerous trends, sects and heresies, throughout the social, cultural and political transformations that marked the history of Islam, the image of Muhammad remains a factor uniting Muslims. In the folk religion, the cult of Muhammad arose, but strict beliefs consider it exclusively as a person, although it recognizes the divine the plan, the execution of which Muhammad devoted his life.
The materials of the Encyclopedia "World around us" were used. History did not have a divine appeal does not have written evidence of contemporaries about Muhammad. The legends about his life and acts of the hadiths, for a long time spread verbally, were recorded later. The first biography of Muhammad based on Hadis was compiled by Ibn Iskham Um.According to tradition, it is generally accepted that Muhammad ibn Abdallah, Kuriyshit from the Khashim clan, was born in the "Elephant Year" - the year of Abraha’s unsuccessful campaign against Mecca, that is, about a year.
He belonged to one of the noble Meccan families, leading his origin from Kusai. Muhammad was orphaned early - he did not know his father Abdallah, who died before his birth, and at six years old he also lost his mother. When he was nine to ten years old, his grandfather Abd Muttalib died. Muhammad's father was a poor merchant and, dying, left his wife Amine five camels, several sheep and one slave.
Muhammad was taken to him by Uncle Abu Talib, the head of the Khashimid clan, a generous and kind person, but extremely poor. Muhammad led his work life: as a child, a pass of sheep and goats is a contemptuous lesson from the point of view of the Meccans, and when he grew up, he began to be hired to accompany caravans. With them he visited Syria, where he met a Christian creed, whose rituals remained incomprehensible to him.
In childhood, Muhammad was very lonely and spent a lot of time on Mount Hira, at the foot of which Mecca is located.

Fatima survived her father briefly, having died in the year. During his lifetime, Muhammad did not take other wives for himself, and after her death, in memory of her, he often arranged treats for the poor. Such a commandment is mentioned in the Sura of the Qur'an "Morning": I swear in the morning and the darkness of the coming night! Your Lord did not leave you and did not hate.
After all, the last for you is better than the first. After all, your Lord will give you, and you will be satisfied. Didn’t he find you an orphan - and sheltered? Didn’t he find you lost - and directed you on the path? Didn't he find you poor - and enriched you? And you do not oppress the orphan, but do not drive the asking, but announce the mercy of your Lord Koran, in the year Muhammad first heard the divine call to him for the first time.
The Archangel Jabrail ordered Muhammad to speak, or rather, to read from the heavenly book, but Muhammad did not yet know what and therefore was silent. To the second call, Muhammad dared to ask and only the third said to the poems that became the Surah of the Koran "Building", which begins like this: read, in the name of your Lord, who created - created a man from a clot. And the Lord your generous, who taught Kalam, taught a person to what the Koran did not know, thus, the first word of the divine appeal irrefutably testifies to the revelation: Muhammad was elected an intermediary between the word kalam emanating from Allah, and people who themselves could neither hear him or read.
Those who began to dissolve rumors that Muhammad was actually talking with a certain Syrians, the following answer was given: we know that they say: "After all, only a person teaches him." Muhammad did not create a teaching, but created forms of existence - in accordance with the acquired understanding of God, as the real execution of His orders and prohibitions.

Umar insisted that the Muslims pray not in a private house, but openly at Kaaba. The Meccans mocked them, asking: “When will your Day of Judgment finally come? Muhammad appeared to his people as an Arab prophet, announcing the truth unchanged since the beginning of times:“ Say: “Truly, my prayer and my piety, my life and death, the lord of worlds, who has no similar to him.
