Critical of the lax moral standards and polytheistic practices of the inhabitants of Makkah, he began to lead a contemplative life in the desert. In a dramatic religious vision, the angel Gabriel announced to Muhammad (PBUH) that he was to be a prophet. Encouraged by Khadija, he devoted himself to reform of religion and society. Polytheism was to be abandoned. But leaders of the Quraish generally rejected his teaching, and Muhammad (PBUH) gained only a small following and suffered persecution. He eventually fled Makkah. | |
