1 The Speech on Mount Safa

2 Prophet through His revelations to preach among his tribesmen that there is only One God, Allah, and that no one shares His Divinity. The Prophet went to Mount Safa. situated in the centre of Makka, a short distance from the Ka'ba. He called for his tribesmen and when they had assembled, He said: 'lf I tell you that beyond this mountain there is an army which is going to invade you, will you believe it to be true or untrue?' They all said: 'We will believe it to be true since you have always spoken the truth.'

3 The Prophet then said: ‘I tell you that the army of death is after you. I warn you of the wrath of Allah. I am His Prophet. You should accept, this as true and believe it forthwith. Stop worshipping idols. Worship Allah. Obey His commands. Reject bad actions and turn from them so that you may attain Salvation.' On hearing this the tribesmen became angry. They worshipped many idols and even kept some of them in the Ka'ba. People from all over Arabia and beyond came to the Ka'ba to lay their offerings before these idols and the tribesmen took these offerings for their own use. They were caretakers of the Ka'ba, custodians of the ldols. and it brought them a good income. The Prophet was now asking them to give up their way of life with all its advantages. An uncle of the Prophet, Abu Lahab, cried loudly: 'O Muhammad, have you called us here for only this?' Many of his tribesmen then deserted the Prophet.
