Muhammad was born in

youth in the caravan trade.
According to legend, the
archangel Gabriel told him

Allah (God).
The new religion is called
Islam, what means
submision to the only and
very God,
Allah

the only God, that the poor and the
rich were equal and they had to share

merchants of Mecca and Muhammad
had to escape to Medina in 622.
This event, known as Hijra, is taken
