Answer two following questions:
Pre-Islamic Paganism was based on pluralism, why then would they eventually become so hostile to Muhammad's call of monotheism?
How did the Prophet's early life facilitate his career as a Prophet?
Muhammad’s Call for Monotheism
Many Islamic followers rejected Muhammad’s call for monotheism. They don’t respect it as they view it as a Christian doctrine of the Trinity. According to them, these were corrupt beliefs possessed by Christian and were held by Jesus (Cole, 2019). At an early age, he was orphaned and was taken care of by his uncle, who installed Christian virtues in him. He had foreseen his future career, and it became his role to shape him to fit. Through his work as a merchant and shepherd, he learned how to deal with different people.
