Prophet Muhammad story
The Story of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)
Muhammad (pbuh) was born in Mecca ( Makkah), Arabia, on Monday, 12
Rabi' Al-Awal (2 August A.D. 570). His mother, Aminah, was the daughter of Wahb
Ibn Abdu Manaf of the Zahrah family. His father, 'Abdullah, was the son of Abdul
Muttalib. His genealogy has been traced to the noble house of Ishmael, the son
of Prophet Abraham in about the fortieth descend. Muhammad's father died before
his birth.
Before he was six years old his mother died, and the doubly
orphaned Muhammad was put under the charge of his grandfather Abdul Muttalib who
took the most tender care of him. But the old chief died two years afterwards.
On his deathbed he confided to his son Abu Talib the charge of the little
orphan.
When Muhammad was twelve years old, he accompanied his uncle Abu
Talib on a mercantile journey to Syria, and they proceeded as far as Busra. The
journey lasted for some months. It was at Busra that the Christian monk Bahira
met Muhammad. He is related to have said to Abu Talib: 'Return with this boy and
guard him against the hatred of the Jews, for a great career awaits your
nephew."
