The history of Islam is believed by most historians [1] to have originated with Muhammad's mission in Mecca and Medina at the start of the 7th century CE, [2] [3] although Muslims regard this time as a return to the original faith passed down by the Abrahamic prophets, such as Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, and Jesus, with the submission (Islām) to the will of God.
Muhammad sends Missionaries at request of some men from the Banu Amir tribe, [92] but the Muslims are killed as revenge for the assassination of Khalid bin Sufyan by Muhammad's followers. [84] 70 Muslims were killed [92] and 2 Non-Muslims were killed [92] Quran 3:169-173 [93] Ibn Hisham [94] Sahih al-Bukhari, 5:59:405, Sahih Muslim, 4:1433; 24

Al-Sīra al-Nabawiyya (Arabic: السيرة النبوية), commonly shortened to Sīrah and translated as prophetic biography, are the traditional biographies of the Islamic prophet Muhammad written by Muslim historians, from which, in addition to the Qurʾān and ḥadīth literature, most historical information about his life and the early history of Islam is derived.
One of his early titles, preceding his conversion to Islam, was Ateeq, meaning "saved one". In a weak narration in Tirmidhi, [ 2 ] Muhammad later restated this title when he said that Abu Bakr is the "Ateeq of Allah from the fire" meaning "saved" or "secure" and the association with Allah showing how close to and protected he is by Allah.
