The Prophet
THE LIFE OF
MUHAMMAD
Mecca (570-622)
Medina (622)
Muhammad was involved with a well-known story about setting the Black Stone in
place in the wall of the Kaaba in 605 CE.
The Black Stone, a sacred object, was removed to facilitate renovations to the Kaaba.
Muhammad began to pray alone in a cave named Hira on Mount Jabal al-Nour, near
Mecca for several weeks every year.
Allah sent angel Gabriel to Muhammad to recite verses (holy teachings) that would be
included in the Quran.
Muhammad experienced the Isra and Mi'raj, a miraculous night-long journey said to have occurred
with the angel Gabriel.
At the journey's beginning, the Isra, he is said to have travelled from Mecca on a winged steed
(Buraq) to "the farthest mosque" (in Arabic: masjid al-aqsa).
Later, during the Mi'raj, Muhammad is said to have toured heaven and hell, and spoke with earlier
prophets, such as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus.
