How was the Arabia region before Muhammad mission?

Before the prophet (may peace and blessings be upon him) was born and the Quran revealed to him (at the age of 40) the Arabs were very backward minded. Each individual could have had upto one god each. Where the Ka'Ba lies now (the place where Muslims go to pilgrimage (i.e the big black cube) was filled with idols. These idols ranged from small rocks to large ones and even plants etc... when the prophet (PBUH) revealed what was revealed unto him he told the people of Mecca the truth and that God was only one and that he was the final messenger and that the Qu'ran was the final complete revelation from God.

At first the Meccans would not stand for it at all and his presence was not welcome at this community. Although Muhammad (PBUH: Peace be upon him) was a very honest and sound minded individual in terms of trade and business sense, he was actually illiterate meaning he could not read or write. So when this individual came to the people and revealed this beautiful and accurate revelation from his own mouth, (God imprinted the whole Qu'ran verse by verse in his mind) the people were shocked, dumbfounded and stunned as to how this illiterate man could reveal something which went against their values.

As a result the Prophet (PBUH) left Mecca for Madina; the people here welcomed him with open arms and listened to his wise Words.

To cut a long story short, 100 years after the prophets death (PBUH) Islam had spread all the way from eastern Europe all the way to western Africa)

Nowadays Islam is the most perfect religion factually speaking (every religion besides Islam contradicts itself somewhere among its own verses. To this day Islam is the only religion which Science works along with rather than against. Not a single Word can be disproved by modern science and as science has improved, the Qu'ran reveals further more miracles which seemed irrelevent at the time but as a result of scientific improvements, we can see that the Qu'ran was right all along and it was just a matter of time until science could verify it.

Islam is now the fastest growing religion in the world and is also the second largest religion.

Please read about Islam and the miracles of the Qu'ran to see for yourself how it is so much ahead of every other religion and how it is the perfect way of life to lead.
