The Revelation
When Muhammad was around forty, while he was meditating in a cave called Hira, in the mountains near Mecca, Mohammed had a divine revelation. The archangel Gabriel appeared and revealed to him the Quran and stated that there was one God. Thus the KALIMA or the basic statement of faith in Islam is:
LA ILAHA ILLALAH; MUHAMMAD UR RASOOL ULLAH. (There is no god but God, and Muhammad is the prophet of God.)
Gabriel also said that Mohammed is the Prophet of Allah. After the revelation, the Prophet migrated from Mecca to Medina. This migration is called Hijrath, and is a very important event in the history of Islam. The Islamic calendar called the Hijri Era is based on this event, and many devout Muslims undertake this pilgrimage.
