WITH A QUIZ

Many years before the birth of our beloved Prophet Muhammad, praise and
veneration be upon him, there lived in Mecca a very great chief. His name was
Hashim, and Prophet Muhammad, praise and veneration be upon him, was his
great, great grandson.

Hashim was the chief of the tribe of Koraysh and was very well known and
respected for his upright character. He loved his fellow tribesmen and sort ways
in which he could ease their harsh life. Caravan journeys across the hot and
dangerous desert were a necessity to the existence of the Koraysh, however,
they were often attacked, robbed and killed, and this grieved Hashim.
