Initially poor people accepted the teachings of prophet and most of leaders of Makkah opposed but with in 2 decades nearly whole of the Arabs accepted the teachings of Islam .

People of Mecca were idol worshippers. They wer plunged into the darknss of ignorance. They were drunkards, gamblers, cheaters and superstitious. They buried their daughters alive and had no respect for women. They exploited the poor and the weak. They followed no rule. Their motto was, "Might is right."

When the last Prophet of Islam Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) preached the message of Almighty Allah inviting the Meccans to worship only One Almighty Allah, to be honest, truthful, fair, and straightforward in their dealings, they turned against him. They were not ready to change their traditions, culture and the power over the poor and the slaves. They felt a threat. They reacted by torturing the Muslims who were mostly the poor and the slaves.

Why did the leaders of Mecca give Muhammad control of the city?

When Muhammad arrived in Mecca, he came for the sole purpose of cleansing it, in other words; to conquer it. When he did so, no-one put up a fight and, even the leaders submitted to his army. They knew now that they could no longer pose a threat to the ever-growing band of Muhammad's followers and that resisting would lead to unnecessary bloodshed, for a lost cause. Thus, having militarily defeated the Meccans, the Muslims took over Mecca and, due to Muhammad being their leader, it was only fitting for him to be handed over the control.
