Storms rage in Mecca...

Did you know that after thirteen years of preaching his new religion, Muhammad faced limited success and fled Mecca with around 150 followers? He formed an army and returned eight years later, conquering the city that had rejected him. While some Muslims believe Mecca was a city of religious persecution, historical records indicate it was more religiously pluralistic and tolerant before Islam's arrival.

Initially, the Meccans tolerated Muhammad's new religion, requesting mutual respect. However, he began openly insulting local religions and their ancestors, creating tension. Over time, Muslims became increasingly violent, leading to conflicts. After Muhammad's exile from Mecca, he continued to harass the city, eventually returning with an army to conquer it. His victory did not result in a widespread massacre, but it marked a turning point in Mecca's history.

Muhammad's conquest led to the destruction of idols and temples, and many Meccans converted to Islam under duress. The once-tolerant Mecca became a theocratic and intolerant city. Muhammad's actions contradicted the earlier religious pluralism, leading to the expulsion of non-Muslims from the city and a change in its character.

The occupation of Mecca by Muhammad's forces exemplifies the violent history of early Islam and its transformation from a tolerant city into an oppressive one. Despite its pre-Islamic history of religious diversity, Mecca became a symbol of religious intolerance. Today, non-Muslims are not even allowed to visit Mecca (there is not a single Muslim voice of protest), highlighting the city's shift from its previous pluralistic nature.
