Chapter 3, lesson 1 The First Muslims Mr. Wyka - World History Chapter 3, lesson 1 The First Muslims The Kaaba, in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, during the Hajj When? A.D. 600 Where? Southwest Asia – Arabian Peninsula

Essential Questions How can religion influence the development of an empire? How might religious beliefs affect society, culture, and politics? The Annual Hajj. The Kaaba is in the background of the picture.

Why does it matter? From a humble beginning of polytheists in the Arabian desert, Arab culture and religion has literally transformed much of the world. Islam is a worldwide religion, second only to Christianity in the number of adherents. And… There will be a quiz later in class…

The Arabs – A.D. 600 Arabs are a Semitic language speaking people, like the Israelites. They lived on the Arabian Peninsula (present day Saudi Arabia & Yemen) and lived a nomadic, pastoral lifestyle. Arab society was tribal, with each tribe ruled by a sheikh.

The Arabs – A.D. 600 But you ask: “How could the Arabs live a nomadic lifestyle, which involves moving about, in a hostile, harsh, desert environment?” The secret was … The domestication of the humble camel. in Arabia between 3000 – 2500 B.C. Opened up much of the desert to the Arab nomads and expanded trade routes into formerly impassable regions.

Early Arabs – Before Islam Before Islam, most Arabs were polytheistic Allah was a chief god among many Symbolized by a sacred stone. Each tribe had their own sacred stone. The Black Stone, a massive black meteorite, was worshiped by ALL tribes in common. It’s shrine in Mecca was (and is) called the Kaaba. The Arabian Peninsula became a nexus for trade in times when the usual trade routes (ie. Silk Road) became dangerous.

The Life of Muhammad Muhammad was of the merchant class, married to an older, wealthy widow. Claimed revelations from God through the angel Gabriel. Muhammad claimed to be the final prophet in a line of prophets including Moses and Jesus. Muslim’s have a very different understanding of Jesus than Christians do.

The Life of Muhammad Muhammad’s messages were eventually written down by his followers after his death. These messages formed the Quran, the holy book of Islam. The principle teaching of the Quran is that there is only one God, named Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet.

The Life of Muhammad Muhammad and his small band of followers were not accepted in his home town of Mecca (Makka). His journey from Mecca to Medina in A.D. 622 is known as the Hijrah and is very important to Muslims. Muslims date their calendar from the Hijrah, which became year 1. Islam sees no separation between political and religious authority. As such, Muhammad was both a political and religious leader. In 630, he returned to Mecca with an army. The Meccans submitted to the will of Muhammad.

The Teachings of Muhammad Islam is monotheistic Allah is all powerful The Five Pillars of Islam direct the life of a faithful Muslim Shahada – True Belief (“There is only one God, Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet.”) Salah – Prayer 5 times a day kneeling toward Mecca Zakat – Charity to the poor Saum – Fasting during the lunar month of Ramadan. Hajj – Pilgrimage to Mecca once in a lifetime.

Shari’ah Law Shari’ah refers to a code of law that regulates a Muslim’s daily life. Shari’ah is based on an interpretation of the Quran by Islamic scholars. Public caning of a woman who violated the dress code according to Shari’ah Law.

Looking back…

What does iconoclast refer to? A person who believes that the use of icons, or religious art, is idolatry and pursues this to its logical end – the destruction of religious art.

Iconoclast Iconoclasm was a phenomenon in the Orthodox Church of the Byzantine Empire, not the Catholic Church of Western Europe. An iconoclast believed that religious art was idolatry, or false worship. Can you deduce from the map WHY iconoclasm might have taken root in the Christian East, but NOT the Christian West?
