So the magicians fell down prostrate[bow down]. They said: "We believe in the Lord of Hârûn and Mûsa ." 20 verse (70)
And indeed We revealed to Mûsa (saying): "Travel by night with Ibâdi (My slaves) and strike a dry path for them in the sea, fearing neither to be overtaken [by Fir'aun ] nor being afraid

The three major events are; from my point of view: prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) migration to Yethrib (called late AlMadinah or Medina)Prophet Muhammad and his companions entering Mecca (or Makkah)prophet Muhammad death
before prophet Muhammad (PBUH) 360 deities were prayed as Gods in Mecca and people from all over the Arabia came to Mecca to pray them and this made high power and income for leaders of mecca. but leaders of mecca suddenly faced a man who says: "there is no God but Allah" and recited Quran with very interesting voice and meanings and people increasingly followed him so they felt danger and forced Muslims and even tried to kill prophet and isolated them from society for 3 years and even Muslims could not but food fro market. so Muslims decided to immigrate to Medina and the conflict always continued.
Before Muhammad's revelations, the three main religious practices in Mecca were the worship of idols at the Kaaba, pilgrimage to the Kaaba, and the observance of various rituals during the pilgrimage season. These practices were part of the polytheistic religion that dominated the region at that time.

Medina, in the current country of Saudi Arabia. at that time Medina had 3 main tribe of Jews and they were waiting for appearance of new prophet according to their old books of Judaism.
(1) That they considered him a blasphemer. (2) That they were worried about losing money, as his preaching against their gods was impeding the tourist trade to the Cube Temple. (3) That they wanted to stop the fights that kept breaking out in the streets, originally started by Muslims, but quickly reaching the point where it was difficult to tell who had started what. (4) That they did not want to go to war against Medina. It was only when Muhammad and his friends in Medina actually declared war against Mecca, and seemed likely to raise an army, that the Meccans sentenced Muhammad to death.
The three holiest cities in Islam are Mecca, Medina, and Jerusalem (in that order). Mecca is considered holy because it is where Muhammad grew up and had the vision during the Night of Power which founded Islam. It is also where the first community of believers were however they were highly persecuted by the local pagans. Medina is where Muhammad and his followers migrated during the Hijrah and allowed Islam to flourish and spread. Jerusalem, which was conquered by the second caliphate Umar, is now where the Dome of the Rock stands and reminds Muslims of the place where they think Muhammad ascended to Heaven.
The answer to the question can be very lengthy as there are many reasons why Mecca is important in Islam. You can read books about that. However, the main obvious reasons include: 1. The Kaba ( the first house of worship ever built on earth) is in Mecca. 2. the Kaba is the directional point of reference for prayers in Islam. 3. The other sacred places are also located in mecca. 4. The city where Prophet Muhammad pubh was born. 5. It marks the beginning of Islamic history.
