Who was Mohammedan and what did he do to begin the faith of Islam?

Mohammad is the central prophet of the "Islamic" faith. Born into a noble Quraish (Quraysh) clan, he was orphaned at an early age. He grew up to be a successful merchant, then turned contemplative; it's said that beginning when he was 40, Mohammad was commanded by Allah (God) to recite the words that would later become "Islam's" holy book, the Qur'an (or Koran). As the revelations continued, Mohammad preached publicly of the duty to submit to the one true god, gaining followers and earning the enmity of the polytheistic authorities. To escape persecution, Mohammad was forced to flee in 622 to Yathrib (later called Medina). His poetic recitations and pleas for social justice continued to win converts, and Mohammad was repeatedly called into battle in his efforts to unite Arabia behind the faith known as "Islam" (meaning "submission"). After finally conquering Mecca in 630, Mohammad returned to Medina, where he died in 632.

Did Muhammad meet with resistance?

AnswerThe Prophet Muhammad began his career in Mecca, where he met considerable resistance. Some 70 of Muhammad's followers migrated to the friendly protection of the Christian King of Abyssinia. Soon afterwards, Muhammad departed secretly to Yathrib (Medina), under the cover of night, with his closest companion Abu Bakr. His cousin and son-in-law remained behind to sleep in his bed and foil a plot to kill Muhammad while he slept.In Medina, Muhammad also met resistance, but managed to win over the various tribal leaders, except for two Jewish tribes, which he expelled from Medina and later decimated.The Arab people respected a strong leader and began to join the Islam movement. From this point, Muhammad met little resistance among the Arabs.
