There were many people in Mecca who opposed to his teachings. Previously he had had a series of revelations and had got words from Allah.According to them, he started to peach God's sayings, e.g.: There is no other God but Allah and his prophet is Muhammad. His opposition forced him and his small group of followers to leave Mecca. They fled to Medina in 622 (it is called the HEGIRA), and this year is considered the starting point in the Islamic calendar as well as the founding year of Islam. In Medina, he made an organized community from his followers, and led them into many battles, including a battle against Mecca in 630. During this struggle he united the Arab tribes under Islam (the new religion spreading fast). As a result the Arab Empire was born and now there are about 1 billion followers - Muslims - all over the world.

One day, while Prophet Muhammad (God bless him and grant him peace) and his companions (God bless them) were offering salat, the formal Islamic prayer, Allah revealed a new verse of the Qur'an, announcing that He had selected a new qiblah (direction of prayer), which was towards Makkah, and specifically towards the Kaabah, the stone house in Makkah that was first constructed by Prophet Adam (God grant him peace) and his son. As they prayed, the congregation swiveled so that they were praying in the direction of the Kaaba in Makkah.
