Ladies and Gentlemen,

In this good apportunity was born in Mecca in 571 A.D. The name of his was Abdullah and the name of his mother was Aminah. Muhammad was born after the death of his father. His mother also died when he was Six years old. After the death of his mother, Muhammad was brought up by his grand_ father Abdul Muttalib and later on, by his uncle Abu Thalib. From the very childhood Muhammad was serious minded And very often used to think about everything which he saw around him.

As a young boy of thirteen years, he joined his uncle in his business. During his trade_journeys he curiously watched the various customs of the different Arab societies. At the age of twenty_five years he was employed by a rich widow Khadijah for looking after his business. She was so impressed with the noble character of Muhammad that she subsequently married him. Prophet lived with her still she died. After her death the prophet married other women who were also widows except the fourth one (Ayesha Begum) who was daughter of his freind and disciple Abu Baqar from Khadijah, the prophet had two sons and four daughters . But, only the fourth daughter Fatima survived him. From other wives there were no children.

Prophet Muhammad thought seriously about the evils in the society and was anxious to find out ways and means to remove them. He used to go to a lonely cave in the mountain called Hira' where he thought about the concept of God, religion and the reform of the society. It is believed that once, in the month of month of Ramadan in 609 A.D., when the prophet was meditating in the cave , he heard a strange voice.

The voice was from Angle Gabriel who was sent to him by god. Gabriel whispered in the ears of the prophet "Read in the name of Allah, the Creator of all things, who made man from a clot blood.
