Early Life

<templatestyles src="Hatnote/styles.css"/>

Main page: Incidents around the birth of the Prophet

Muḥaddithūn and Islamic historians unanimously agree that the Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ was born in the Year of the Elephant, approximately fifty days after its eponymous incident.[47] His birth ﷺ is attributed to either the 8th or 12th day of Rabīʿ al-Awwal, the third month of the Islamic lunar calendar (April, 570 CE).[48][49][50]

The Prophet ﷺ was born to ʿAbd-Allāh b. ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib and Āminah b. Wahb. His father, ʿAbd-Allāh, passed away a few months before his blessed birth,[51] and his mother passed away when he was six years old.[52] For most of these first six years, the Prophet ﷺ lived under the care of Ḥalīmah al-Saʿdiyyah ﵂, his foster mother, amidst the Banū Saʿd.[53]

We find: The mother of ‘Uthmān bin Abil-Aas ﵁, Fāṭimah binti ‘Abdillah says: “During the blessed birth of Rasulullah ﷺ, I was with his mother Āminah. I noticed the whole house radiating with nūr (brilliance), and I saw the stars stooping so low I thought they would come crashing down onto me.”[54]

The Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ did not have the normal effects of after-birth or any form of dirt on his blessed body.[54]

Upbringing

<templatestyles src="Hatnote/styles.css"/>

Main page: Childhood of the Prophet

At around four years of age, the Prophet ﷺ was visited by the angel Jibrīl ﵇ (Gabriel), who wrestled him to the ground, split his chest, and removed a black sliver from his heart. Thereafter, the archangel washed his heart with Zamzam, placed it back in his chest cavity, and then resealed his chest.[55]

The entire paranormal event frightened Ḥalīmah ﵂, who returned the Prophet ﷺ to Āminah. Āminah would thereafter care for the Prophet ﷺ until her passing in either Abwāʾ, a small oasis in between Makkah and Madīnah, or in Makkah. The Prophet ﷺ was now, effectively, an orphan.

After this event an Abyssinian bondswoman, Umm Ayman Barakah, brought the Prophet ﷺ to his grandfather, ʿAbd Al-Muṭṭalib, in Makkah.[56]

The Prophet ﷺ was embraced by his grandfather, with whom he remained until eight years of age, when ʿAbd Al-Muṭṭalib passed away.

After his grandfather's passing, the Prophet ﷺ was adopted by his paternal uncle, Abū Ṭālib, who would care for him until he ﷺ was 50 years old.

Following this juncture, many muḥaddithīn and muʾarrikhīn (historians) mention the story of the Prophet's ﷺ first excursion to Syria, Damascus, or Rome with his uncle (reports vary) and his encounter with Baḥīrā (or Buḥayrā). The following is a summary of most variants of this story:

In response, Abū Ṭālib sent the Prophet ﷺ back to Makkah with Abū Bakr ﵁.

He ﷺ would tend to the goats of the Quraysh, and Abū Hurayrah ﵁ narrates that the Prophet ﷺ said: "There was not a single messenger who did not graze sheep."[57]

Adulthood Before Attaining Prophet-hood

Second Journey to Syria

<templatestyles src="Hatnote/styles.css"/>

Main page: Second Journey to Syria

The Prophet ﷺ came to be known as al-ṣādiq (truthful) and al-amīn (trustworthy) among the Quraysh due to his excellent conduct. When the Prophet ﷺ was twenty five years old, Khadījah ﵂ was interested in having the Prophet ﷺ oversee her trade goods in a caravan departing to Syria. The Prophet ﷺ accepted the offer and he set off to Syria accompanied by Hadhrat Khadījah’s ﵂ slave, Maysarah. [58] At Busra the Prophet ﷺ sat underneath the shade of a tree. In the vicinity of this tree there lived a monk named Nastoora. He saw the Prophet ﷺ and approached him. Nastoora said “From ‘īsā bin Maryam ﵇ right up to this present moment, besides you no other prophet has sat beneath this tree” Following this he remarked to Maysarah “He (Rasūlullāh ﷺ) has this redness in his eyes.” Maysarah responded and revealed “Yes, this redness has never left his eyes.” Nastoora exclaimed “Yes, surely this is the Prophet.
