On Monday, the twelfth day of Rabi al-Awwal in the Year of the Elephant, Aminah gave birth to Muhammad (puh). His father Abdullah was dead. Like many other women in Mecca, Aminah sent her son away from the city for his early years to the desert where he was more healty. So he has passed early years in the desert. During his time in the desert, Muhammad played with children and together they used to take the sheep out to graze. While he was six years old he had lost his mother. He was then adopted by his grandfather, Abd al-Muttalib. Two years later Abd al-Muttalib died. Muhammad has lived together with his uncle Abu Talib. In this time Muhammad used to take the family’s sheep to graze and trade with his uncle. When the Prophet Muhammad was twenty-five years old, he and Khadicah got married and he contiuned his commercial activities
