Islam as a distinct religion began with the Prophet Muhammad (c. 570–632 CE). Muslims believe he received revelations from God (Allah) beginning around 610 CE in Mecca; the community he led and his migration (Hijra) to Medina in 622 CE mark the foundation of the Muslim community and the start of the Islamic calendar. Muslims also view Islam as the continuation of earlier monotheistic revelations given to prophets such as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus.
