Milton Bronner told how Mohammed, an Arabian camel driver, who had contacted with Jews and Christians. founded his religion after recelTln* vlsmna' which he el'smed were sent to him from heaven through the medium of the Angel Gabriel. BV MILTON BRONNER Farepean Manager. NEA Servlea t'OR three years after Mohamad med founded what was to become the powerful Moslem religion. he and his small band of believers practiced their rites in secret. From this has grown a following of 230.000.000. or about one-eighth of humanity. Mohammed considered himself a prophet inspired by God. He did not yet look upon himself as an envoy of God. Then he had a new “vision.” His believers assert, that the Angel Gabriel said to him: "Oh, prophet, make known all that has been revealed to you bv your Lord. If you do not do it, you will not have obeyed his message. Tell about good and evil as It has been taught you, without fear of the pagans." Greatly troubled. Mohammed gave a great feast to all his relatives to whom he had not yet revealed his “vision." They mocked him and left. He then called a meeting in the market place and was derided. But he went to the outskirts of the town and there made converts among the poor, the slaves and the women. The rich and powerful would have nothing to do with him. So he attacked the rich like a regular soap-box Socialist: "Tbs desire of Inrrmlnt your rlrkn prorrupir* yon "I p to the moment of your descent into the tomb. “Certainly yon will learn. "Again I ay, von will learn, “You will see Hell!" m m a HEN they were not angry, Vt they mocked him. If he was a true prophet, they asked, why did he not perform miracles? Mohammed replied: “I am not a maker of miracles. lam only a giver of warnings. I

turn. He mocked their idols—those things of stone and clay, deaf, dumb and blind, unable either to help or hurt mankind. Their worshipers, he said, were immoral in their manners, hard of heart, avaricious in their dealings, and usurers to boot. This man Mohammed meant trouble and the leaders of the town asked his uncle, Abu Talib, to silence him. “Oh. my uncle,” said the prophet, “if there were against me the sun on my right hand and the moon on my left, I would not abandon my work until God makes me successful or calls me to Him.” VMM T44T OHAMMEDS uncle, pagan ■*-*•*■ though he was, promised to protect his nephew from the wrath of the powerful Meccans. But he did not succeed. The crowds spat upon him, threw filth at him. His followers, too. were persecuted and the slaves were beaten and o.*„en tortured. At last, part of his small following made its escape and went to Christian Abyssinia, where they .were treated kindly. For some years he and the rest of his followers were banished from Mecca and were allowed to

His persecutions began again. But by now he had met some Arabs from the oasis and town of Yatsrib. later to be the holy town of Medina. These Arabs were prepared for a monotheistic religion, because of the Jewish tribes which lived in their oasis. They believed in his new religion. They urged him to come to Medina to live. His “voices" had not told him to emigrate. But little bands of his followers slipped away from Mecca and went to Medina. m m m A T last Mohammed and Abu Bakr alone were left and they, too, set out for Medina in the year 622.

r the Meccans and took refuge in a deep cavern. Some of their enemies were hot on their trail. Abu Bakr was sure they would be cap- | tured and killed. Mohammed replied : “What do you think can happen to two men who have God with them as third?" Here Moslem legend enters the story. There was a bush at the | entrance of the cavern. It suddenly grew, until Its branches almost hid the entrance. A dove settled in one of the branches and cooed, undisturbed. A spider built a large web. Those, who were seeking the two men. were quite sure no one had entered that cavern for months. So they escaped and in ten days’ hard riding with camels arrived safely at Medina. 200 miles away. Mohammed was welcomed by his new converts, as well as his old followers. Hp became not only prophet and head of the new faith, but law-giver, warrior, chief man of the town. m m m A LREADY, before he had left Mecca this Mohammed, whom a recent Moslem biographer calls “the most perfect man who ever lived,” had taken as his second wife Avesha. 9-year-old daughter of his friend Abu Bakr. He ultimately married nine wives, although he restricted his followers to four. It was at Medina that Mohammed began to make his faith a | fighting one. At first, to revenge himself upon the Meccans he permitted small bands of his follow- . ers to go out in the deserts and attack the caravans destined for Mecca. There was booty in it and S all Arabs love booty. The Meccans resolved to give battle. There resulted In the year 624 an engagement at Badr which Moslems pompously call one of the decisive battles of the world. Perhaps it was, in that it gave confidence to the followers of Mohammed. led to further victories and his final supremacy. But in comparison with the enormous battles of the World war, this one was a mere fleabiter. Three hundred Moslems engaged 1.000 Meccans and put them to flight after an all-day struggle. m m m THEN Mohammed turned his attention to completing his grip on Medina. The Jewish tribes there had made an offtnsive and defensive alliance witii his followers. Mohammed professed to believe that they had been in treacherous correspondence with his enemies at Mecca. He winked at crime when some of his fanatical followers crept into the homes of the Jewish tribal leaders and assassinated them. Later he drove the rest out of Medina, and still later attacked them in their distant oases and put many to the sword. Only those were spared who became I converts to the faith. In January, 625, the Meccans

had their revenge. They sent 3.000 men to battle at Ohod against 700 under Mohammed. The Moslems were beaten. Mohammed himself had his cheek pierced by an arrow. A lance crashed his steel helmet over his face. A splinter smashed his jaw and he lost some teeth. The Meccans might have captured him and destroyed his little force, but they were more intent on booty and. finally, left without finishing their work. It was a serious trial for Mohammed. The unbelievers laughed in their triumph. This prophet was only a general—and a beaten general at that. Next: Mohammed’s triumphant return to Mecca and the destruction of the idols. ... Anew religion takes firm root—though its prophet is busy with family matters in trying to compose the quarrels among his nine jealous wives.
