When Rasulullah
reached the age of thirty-three, he developed a tendency to be alone and
in deep thought and was drawn more towards the contemplation of the Great
Creator, Allah. There was an ever-present light and brilliance 'Noor' around
him which gladdened his heart.
Rasulullah
resented the worship of idols and he denounced 'polytheism' (worship of
more than one God). He abstained from eating food that had been offerings
to the idols.
As Rasulullah
got older he desired to be lonely and began to retire to the cave of Hira
which was about five kilometers from Makkah. The cave was only three meters
by two meters in size. During his visits to the cave he took with him only
a small supply of bread and water.
He was always engaged in prayer and contemplation of the Greatness of Allah, the One and Only God.
