He was born April 28, 570 in Mecca, and died June 8, 632 in Medina. His followers were persecuted by Mecca polytheists.
In order to save them, Mohammed sent them to Abyssinia in 615, and in 622 they moved to Medina. This event is called "Hijra" in Islam and marks the beginning of the Islamic calendar.
On June 8, 632, Islamic Prophet Muhammad died in the Arab city of Medina.
He died at the age of 64, at the home of his wife, Aisha, after suffering from fever, headache and weakness for several days. He exhaled with his head on Aisha's lap. He was buried in the same place where he died at Aisha's house. Later, a tomb and a green dome were built on the site, and everything was put into the Prophet's Mosque, the second holiest site in Islam (after the Holy Mosque in Mecca).
