LONG ago there lived a man in Arabia called Abdulla. His wife was Amina. To them was born a son whom they named Mohammed.
When Mohammed was young, both his father and mother died. He thus became an orphan at an early age. So his grand- father brought him up. When the old man died, Mohammed's uncle took care of him.
Mohammed first tended sheep. Later he looked after a caravan. In Arabia camels are used to carry men and goods from place to place. The camels form a line one behind the other like a train. This train of camels is called a caravan. Everyone thought highly of Mohammed because he was good, honest and truthful.
