PROPHET MOHAMMED

Mohammed married a lady called Kadija. Many children were born to them. Only one girl survived. All the others died. She was called Fatima.

When Kadija died, Mohammed married another woman called Ayesha.

Once the people of Arabia rebuilt the Kaaba in a city called Mecca. Kaaba was their temple. The people invited Mohammed to install the black-stone in the building. It was a great honour.

Mohammed became deeply religious. He often went to a cave near Mecca and meditated on God for days together.

At that time people in Arabia worshipped many Gods. So the wise men of the country came to Mohammed, and asked him to teach the people to worship the only true God. Mohammed did so. He said: "True religion is worshipping the one God and serving humanity. People must have faith in God, do good deeds, and treat all men as brothers."
