The Prophet's lineage goes back to Ishmael, son of Abraham. Hashim ibn Abd Manaf made Mecca a trading center, giving birth to Abd al-Muttalib, who was responsible for providing water to the people and re-dug the Zamzam well. Among his sons was Abdullah, the Prophet's father.

Abd al-Muttalib ransomed his son Abdullah with one hundred camels, and Abdullah then married Aminah. Abraha killed Ariat, and assumed the rule of Yemen. Visions were seen foretelling the birth of the Prophet (PBUH), and Aminah became pregnant with him, and Abdullah then died.

Abraha marched with his army to demolish the Kaaba, but Abd al-Muttalib said, "The House has a Lord who protects it." The elephants stopped by God's command, and He sent the Ababil birds to pelt them with stones of hot clay, and Abraha and his army perished.

Fifty days after the incident of the Elephants, the Prophet was born. Saif ibn Dhi Yazan prophesied his birth. Halima al-Sa'diyya breastfed him, bringing blessings to her home. She then returned him to her mother after the incident involving the opening of his chest. Aminah died on her way back from Medina.

God protected His Prophet, PBUH, from a young age. His grandfather and then his uncle Abu Talib took care of him despite his poverty. He worked as a shepherd, then went with his uncle to the Levant, where the monk Bahira introduced him to the seal of prophethood and its attributes.

The prophethood's sign appeared with the extinction of the Magian fire and the closure of the Samura Valley. Waraqah ibn Nawfal said Muhammad was the Prophets' Seal. He worshipped in Hira and participated in the Fujjar War at the age of 15, then in the Hilf al-Fudul to support the oppressed.

The Prophet traded in Syria with Khadija's money, along with Maysarah. He was known for his trustworthiness. The Arabs used to bury their daughters alive for fear of shame. Waraqah ibn Nawfal told Khadija that he was the last prophet, so she married him. Later, the Kaaba was destroyed by floods and rebuilt.

The Prophet settled a tribal dispute by placing the Black Stone in his hand. He adopted Zayd ibn Haritha. Then, prophethood began in the Cave of Hira with the revelation of Surat Al-Alaq. Khadija, may God be pleased with her, reassured him, and the revelation of the surahs continued.

The first to convert to Islam was Khadija. Among the men, it was Abu Bakr, and among the boys, it was Ali. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) invited his uncle Abu Talib to Islam, but he refused. Bilal converted to Islam and was tortured, as did a number of Quraysh leaders.

Abu Talib refused to trade the Prophet with the Quraysh. He declined money and leadership, declaring, “Even if they placed the sun in my right hand and the moon in my left, I would not abandon the call.” He proclaimed the call loudly on Mount Safa, and Surah Al-Masad was revealed about Abu Lahab.

The Quraysh accused the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of being a soothsayer, a poet, or a madman. Their most likely explanation was that he was a magician. He would present his message at the Souk Okaz, where Abu Lahab would follow him, harass him, throw stones at him, and call him a liar.

Abu Jahl tried to kill the Prophet while he was prostrating. He saw a camel stallion and was terrified, so he returned disappointed. Hamza ibn Abd al-Muttalib converted to Islam, declared his protection of the Prophet, and threatened anyone who would harm him.

Revelation was interrupted for a period of time, and the Prophet awaited its return. Surah Ad-Duha was revealed. Abu Lahab ordered his sons to divorce the Prophet's daughters, and his wife sought to hurt him but couldn't see him. The Prophet commanded his companions to reside with a just monarch in Abyssinia.

The first immigrants to Abyssinia were Uthman ibn Affan and his wife, Ruqayya. Amr ibn al-As and Khalid ibn al-Walid tried to recapture the Muslims, but Ja'far ibn Abi Talib recited verses from Surah Maryam, which made the Negus and the bishops weep and refused to hand them over.

The Prophet prayed that God would strengthen Islam through one of the two Umars, and God chose Umar ibn al-Khattab. He went angrily to his sister and beat her. Then he read some papers that were in her possession, and so-and-so's heart softened, and he converted to Islam and declared his religion to Abu Jahl.

The infidels of Quraysh boycotted Banu Hashim and Abd al-Muttalib for three years in the valley of Abu Talib. They would trade with them. A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asking for help, so he advised him to work in the trade of clothing and vessels instead of begging.

The Prophet revealed to his uncle that termites had consumed the unjust document, leaving only "In Your Name, O Allah." Thus, the siege was lifted. A man came demanding his right from Abu Jahl, so the Prophet ﷺ went with him. When Abu Jahl saw him, he trembled and returned the money.

Abu Talib died and the Prophet was subjected to harm. Then Khadija died, so that year was called the Year of Sorrow. Gabriel gave her the good news of a house in Paradise. Abu Bakr freed Amir ibn Fuhayra, and the Quraysh asked for a sign, so the moon split, but they denied it.

Out of mercy for the Quraysh, the Prophet refused Gabriel's request to close the two mountains when he complained of his weakness under the tree. Khabbab ibn al-Aratt was tortured, so the Prophet urged him to be patient. Abu Dharr al-Ghifari converted to Islam and pledged to spread the message.

On the Night of Isra' and Mi'raj, the Prophet was taken on a night journey from the Masjid al-Haram to Al-Aqsa Mosque, then he ascended to the Lote Tree of the Limit, and prayer was made obligatory. The Quraysh denied the miracle, but Abu Bakr stood firm.

After seeing the prophets on the Night of Isra' and Mi'raj, the Prophet told the Quraysh. At the First Pledge of Aqabah, Yathrib people pledged monotheism and abandoning sins. It took place in the 12th year of the Prophet's mission, and the polytheists' persecution of the Muslims intensified.

In the Second Pledge of Aqaba, the Ansar declared their commitment to obedience and support for Islam, and the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, formed an alliance with the Khazraj. Utaybah ibn Abi Lahab tried to harm him, so he prayed against him, and a lion devoured him on his way to Syria.

The Prophet ordered his companions to migrate secretly to Yathrib. Umar migrated, defying the Quraysh. Ibn al-Daghna granted protection to Abu Bakr, who wished to accompany the Prophet. The Quraysh conspired to kill the Prophet, so he left their presence without being seen, and Ali slept in his place.

The Prophet went with Abu Bakr to the Jabal Thawr for three days, and their guide was Abdullah bin Urayqit. The Prophet was saddened by the departure from Mecca, and the Quraysh announced a hundred camels as a reward for whoever would bring them.

Suraqa converted to Islam on the day of the conquest of Mecca. When the Prophet passed Umm Ma'bad's tent, Allah handed him sheep's milk. Medinans sang to him when he arrived. He built the Quba Mosque, created unity between Muhajirun and Ansar, and vowed to develop an Islamic community with Jews.

After asking questions only a prophet could answer, Abd Allah ibn Salam came to believe. He became one of his special companions. In Medina, congregational prayers were prescribed, and the call to prayer was adopted.

The polytheists conspired with Ibn Salul to fight the Prophet. He gathered his followers, but the Prophet dispersed them. Then the Prophet wrote the Constitution of Medina, which united the Muhajirun, the Ansar, and the people of Yathrib into one nation based on support and justice.

The Quraysh confiscated the Muhajirun's wealth and decided to intercept their caravans, so Abu Sufyan changed his route. The qibla (direction of prayer) was then changed to the Kaaba. The Muslims camped at Badr after consulting the Prophet with his Companions, and the well was behind them in preparation for battle.

The polytheists camped at Badr, so God sent rain as a victory for the Muslims and a calamity for the disbelievers. The Prophet commanded not to kill any of the Banu Hashim who had fled under duress. The Muslims fought, accompanied by angels from heaven, until victory was achieved.

The Muslims were victorious at Badr and the polytheists were captured. The Prophet accepted the ransom of the prisoners, and those who could not afford it were given the option of teaching ten Muslim boys. Abu Lahab died of adasa, and in the second year of the Hijra, zakat was made obligatory.
