Before Revelation:
Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) was now approaching his fortieth year. He felt a mystifying internal unrest, yet he did not know the rationale behind it. He was himself not aware what the inexplicable confusion meant to him; nor did the idea that God was about to honor him with revelation and prophet-hood ever crossed his mind. This was how the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) felt, as has been attested by God in the Quran:
"And thus We have inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our Command. Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. But We have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of our bondmen. And Lo! thou verily dost guide unto a right path." (42:52)
