Muhammad (s) spent his childhood as an orphan. A few months after [[Abd Allah b. Abd al-Muttalib|'Abd Allah]] (his father) married [[Amina]], the daughter of Wahb (the chief of the [[Banu Zuhra family]]), 'Abd Allah went on a business trip to [[Damascus]], and passed away on his return in [[Yathrib]] (now Medina). Some historians say that his death was before Muhammad's birth, and some have written that he passed away a few months after Muhammad (s) was born. Muhammad (s) spent his early childhood with a woman from the [[Banu Sa'd]] tribe, named [[Halima]], who breastfed him. Muhammad lived his first years with his wet nurse and her husband in the desert.

When Muhammad (s) was six years and three months old (or four years old according to some reports), he traveled to [[Yathrib]] with his mother, Amina, to see his relatives on the side of [[Abd al-Muttalib]]'s mother (i.e., Banu 'Adi b. Najjar). However, on her way back to [[Mecca]], she passed away in [[Abwa']] and was buried there. Amina was 30 years old at the time of death.
