Muhammed was born in Mecca. His
parents died when he was 6 years old. His grandfather and
uncle looked after him.
He married when he was 25 years
old. He worked hard and became rich.
Many people worshipped pagan
dolls. Muhammed didn't like this. He went into the
mountains and deserts because he wanted to be alone.
Muhammed went to a cave near Mecca. The
Angel Jibril gave him a message from Allah.
Later angels took him to
Jerusalem. He prayed with earlier prophets like Abraham,
Moses and Jesus. Then he went up into heaven.
Allah told him he must pray 5 times everyday.
Muhammed had to leave Mecca. He
went to live in Medina. He lived a good Muslim life and
was kind to everyone. Many pagans became Muslim.
When he died pagans had left
Mecca. Muhammed died at 63 years old.
