Islam is the second largest religion of the world. People who believe in this religion are called Muslims. The founder of Islam was a prophet called Muhammad. This man was born in the Arabian city of Mecca more than 1400 years ago in a very poor family. His father died when he was young and then he was adopted by his uncle. He married a woman called Khadija. Muhammad saw Allah in a profound cave called Hira near Mecca. In the cave, Allah (God of the Muslims) showed him a sacred book, the Qur'an and ordered him that he must preach the religion.
