Muhammad nimself was bron in 570 A. D. in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, as a posthumous son of Abdullahi, by his wife, Amina. He came from the tribe or Quraish—the noble tribe ol Mecca which was said to have descended from Ish-

mael.

His mother died when he was only :>:x years old, and he was nursed by an African maid from Abyssinia. In his youth, he was employed as a shephe.’d boy, and in his maturity he engaged himself largely on isolated meditations in caves outside the town. His divine mission started from the age of forty, when the angel Gabriel appeared to him with revelations trom God, The Quran is the record of those formal utterances and discourses whice were communicated as the Word of God, through Gabriel, from time to time. They were sent down as portions of a Heavenly Book in sections of manageable length and in relation to the circumstances of the moment Muhammad preached his mission with such great fervour that he encountered great opposition even from his own people. His denunciation of all forms of social injustice and fraud, his condemnation of all the evil practices, moral delinquencies and exploitations that were rampant in Arabia, brought him into dorect grips with the leaders of the country who saw this new mission as a danger and threat to their social positions and economic sta-

bility.

They, as a result, formed a hostile confederacy and hostile gangs, by which all forms of intercourse with the followers of the Prophet were banned, ami large-scale molestations against them were carried out. These forced the Prophet to contemplate deserting his own

home.

HAVING RECEIVED encouragement from the people of Medina— 200 miles* away — he set out on the famous Hijida, or Muslim Emigration of 622 A. D., from Mecca (o Medina. This event marked a turning point in the history of Islam, and the year 622 was adopted as the first year of the new Muslim era. In Medina, the Prophet found an entirely different atmosphere. He found himself in complete authority and immediately set out to establish a new Islamic state, based, in its framework, on revealed commandments and getneral rules. This state, which was deoeribed as unique in human history, combined both the religious and modern elements of state-

Women Polygamous, Psychoonalyist Says N. Y. Study Shows NEW YORK (ANP) — Mdch. is v/hispered around the bridge tables about the philandering husband—the married boy who is always looking for a chance to demonstrate his sexual prowess with a willing female. Rut what about the errant wife —the gal, sometimes gay, sometimes solemn and withdrawn who surrendeis to a powerful urge to indu’go in extramarital sexual forties? An eminent New York psycho-•-.nalyist has made a study of polygamy among women — rot in far-off exotic Africa — but in modern, sophisticated New York. The psychoanalyst is Dr Norbert B/omberg, associate clinical professor of psychiatry at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York POLYGAMOUS women, said Dr. Broml>erg, share a common destiny — although married to eminently respectable, even ideal, husbands, they have an urge _to form an intense attachment with another man. Dr. Bromberg said the wives will admit their husbands are usually good. Indeed, they often stand in awe of the husband’s fine qualities and even exaggerate them. But, she expects to he babied, to be “patted on the head,” he said. When the husband wants his wife to give up the “little girl” role, and assume the responsibilities of a family and share his anxieties, she turns away from him and seeks an entirely different type of man. This is not. Dr. Bromberg said, because of the character ef the husband but because of certain childhood family backgrounds and personality characteristics of the woman involved. The woman is usually the child of an unstable family, often the victim of emotional neglect and the absence of a mother in the home. Upon turning to her father for support, she either found him weak and indifferent to her problems on supporting the mother against her
