The religion of Islam was started by Prophet Muhammad. Muhammad spent most of his life as a merchant. When he was 40 years old, he received the knowledge of the Quran from Allah. This knowledge became the foundation of the religion of Islam. By 630 AD, Muhammad had preached Islam in most parts of Arabia. His life was religious and he used to visit pilgrimage sites and do devotion.
Muhammad faced many hardships in his life. His father died before he was born, and he was raised by his grandfather and uncle. Muhammad's descendants are believed to be spread all over the world today.
Spread of Islam in India
Soon after the rise of Islam, Islam began to spread to India via the Arab coastal trade route through Gujarat. By the 7th century, Islam had reached the inland areas of the Indian subcontinent. Subsequently, the Arabs conquered Sindh and in the 12th century Mahmud of Ghaznavi came to North India via Punjab.
After this, many Muslim rulers and traders came to India, and the culture of Islam gradually spread in India. Qutubuddin Aibak is also credited with laying the foundation of the Muslim empire in India.
