The Prophet Muhammad

Muhammad was born 570 [|CE], in Mecca and was raised by an uncle since his parents died when he was still a child. He is regarded a a prophet of God as well as a messenger. Muhammad, at the age of 40, during the month of [|Ramadan], it is believed in the Islamic religion that he received his fist revelation from God. Muhammad and his few followers were forced to fee Mecca to avoid being killed. Many people didn't like him because of his belief in one god. But in 622 he and his many followers conquered Mecca. In 632, after returning from a pilgrimage to Mecca, Muhammad fell ill and died in Medina.
