Prophet Muhammad was to be orphaned at birth. At the age of 6 years old, his mother Siti Aminah died, so that at a young age is already an orphan and eventually cared for by his grandfather Abdul Muttalib. But when he was 9 years old his grandfather also died. Then raised by her uncle Abu Talib, the poor and the profession as a trader. At the age of 12 years by Abu Tholib has introduced international trade in Syria. Small Youth uncle always embraced and very loved by uncle. "I'll take her with me and we will never separate" His uncle said. In Syria there lived a great preacher named Bahira an inviting dining the Quraysh tribe. Bahira asked "O Quraysh, none of you who did not attend meeting invitation". "Yes" they answered, "except a little boy who lived in the back with baggage". Bahirapun feel confused and said "That's not fair. Let him go ". When Bahira saw, he began to look at him carefully. Finished eating and dispersed, Bahira approached him and asked him some questions. And finally Bahira can see the "signs of Prophethood" that exist between the two shoulders. Bahira then approached Abu Talib and asked "How are the children of this man?". "He is my son" said Abi Talib. "Not. He is not your son. Not his father might still be alive "Bahira said. "Indeed. He was the son and brother had died saudraku "said Abi Talib said, apologetically. Selajutnya Bahira advised Abu Talib, "Go back to your country with your niece and keep it from Jews. Because, by God, if they see it and know about it as I know, they would do the persecution against him. A future laid out for him very much. Then immediately returned to the country with this young man ". Abu Talib was a little scared and took Muhammad returned to Mecca as soon as he finished trading in Syria. Thus excerpt from the book Muhammad: Encyclopedia of Seerah, volume 2, the third book of Afzalurrahman. Finally, Muhammad became the leader and skilled traders. God chose him as prophet and messenger. Mr. western economics, Adam Smith in his book The Wealth of Nations on page 655, mentions that Muhammad was a leader who can unite a great nation in the Arabian Peninsula. Prophet Muhammad selected by Michael Hart as the number one most influential in history. Similarly, Abraham Lincoln lost his mother at the age of 9 years and left behind by his brother who he loved most at the age of 17 years. Eventually became a successful American president. I personally also have to part with my parents when I was 3 years of age. It turned out that the disaster if we can take the positive side can lead us to fly higher and create a bright future.
