Muhammad’s father died shortly before his birth, so Muhammad’s mother took him to live with husband’s father (Marston 12). Muhammad’s name means ‘worthy of praise’ or ‘often praised’ and was an unfamiliar name in Arabia (Salahi 23). He lived on the Arabian Peninsula, near the Red Sea (Martson 7). He was from the Quraysh. The Quraysh are an Arab tribe said to descend from a nobleman, Fihr ibn Malik, who lived eleven generations before Muhammad (Cook 12).
