Having reached the half-way point in the study of the Meccan Period in the Sira, this episode covers one of the most important discussions on the life of the Prophet Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace), namely the pre-prophecy signs that appeared around him heralding his mission, and the beginning of revelation (wahy). It discusses the meaning of revelation and its types, and concludes with a reading of the most important hadith on the subject: the hadith called 'How Revelation Began,' narrated by Sayyida 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her).
