Abd al-Muttalib (Saba al-Hamd) of Clan HashimBorn ± 530 at Mecca, Arabia, died ± 578 at Mecca, Arabia, approximately 48 years THE FOUNDATIONS OF ISLAM Muhammad: The Prophet and his message. Life and Works. Muhammad (in full Abu al-Qasim Muhammad ibn 'Abd Allah ibn 'Abd al-Muttalib ibn Hashim) was born in Mecca c. 570 after the death of his father, 'Abd Allah. Muhammad was at first under the care of his paternal grandfather 'Abd al-Muttalib. Because the climate of Mecca was considered to be unhealthful, he was given as an infant to a wet nurse from a nomadic tribe and spent some time in the desert. At six he lost his mother, Aminah of the clan Zuhra, and at eight his grandfather. Though his grandfather had been head of the prestigious Hashem (Hashim) clan and was prominent in Mecca politics, he was probably not the leading man in Mecca, as some sources suggest.
