Zamzam
Hundreds of years before its time, the well of Zamzam in Mecca was filled up and nobody knew its location. The Well of Zamzam (or the Zamzam Well, or just Zamzam; Arabic: زمزم) is a well located within the Masjid al Haram in One day, `Abdu'l-Muttalib had a series of four dreams directing him to Zamzam's location. `Abdu'l-Muttalib, with his eldest son, Harith ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib, dug the location where Zamzam is today, finding water after four days of effort. Ḥārith ibn ‘Abd al-Muṭṭalib ( was one of the uncles of Muhammad and also a Sahaba. At this success, the Quraish argued that since the well was the property of Ismail, it belonged to the whole tribe.

The next day, `Abdu'l-Muttalib exhorted his companions that it was cowardice to succumb to death. He mounted his camel and its foot hit the earth producing a stream of water. The different caravans drank from the fountain and said: "Allah has decided between you and us. By Allah, we will never dispute with you about Zamzam. The same Allah who has created this fountain here in this desert for you has given Zamzam to you. "
The Year of the Elephant
According to Muslim tradition, the Ethiopian governor of Yemen, Abraha al-Ashram, envied the Kaaba's reverence among the Arabs and, being a Christian, he built a cathedral in Sanaa and ordered pilgrimage be made there.

There were many elephants in Abraha's army and the year came to be known as 'Am al-Fil (Year of the Elephant), beginning a trend for reckoning the years in Arabia which was used until Umar ibn al Khattab replaced it with the Islamic Calendar. The Year of the Elephant (in Arabic, عام الفيل, `Âm al-Fîl is the name in Islamic history for the year approximately equating to 570 The Arabian Peninsula (in Arabic: شبه الجزيرة العربية šibh al-jazīra al-ʻarabīya or جزيرة العرب jazīrat al-ʻarab) Umar (a=عمر بن الخطاب|t=`Umar ibn al-Khattāb c 581-83 CE &ndash 7 November, 644) also known as Umar the Great or Omar the Great The Islamic calendar or Muslim calendar ( Arabic: التقويم الهجري at-taqwīm al-hijrī; Persian: تقویم هجری قمری
When news of the advance of Abraha's army came, the Arab tribes of Quraish, Banu Kinanah, Banu Khuza'a and Banu Hudhayl united in defense of the Kaaba. Banu Khuza'a is an Arabian Tribe. Origin Khuza'a known as Haritha Amr bin Muzaqiba A man from the Himyar tribe was sent by Abraha to advise them that Abraha only wished to demolish the Kaaba and if they resisted, they would be crushed. The Himyarite Kingdom or Himyar (in Arabic مملكة حِمْيَر) anciently called Homerite Kingdom by the Greeks and the Romans `Abdu'l-Muttalib told the Meccans to seek refuge in the hills while he with some leading members of Quraish, remained within the precincts of the Kaaba. Abraha sent a dispatch inviting `Abdu'l-Muttalib to meet with Abraha and discuss matters. When `Abdu'l-Muttalib left the meeting he was heard saying, "The Owner of this House is its Defender, and I am sure He will save it from the attack of the adversaries and will not dishonor the servants of His House. "
It is recorded that when the Abraha's forces neared the Kaaba, Allah commanded small birds which destroyed Abrah's army with raining pebbles from their beaks. Abraha was seriously wounded and he retreated towards Yemen but died on the way.
This event is referred to in the Qur'an, chapter 105 Al-Fil:
Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with the owners of the Elephant? Did He not make their treacherous plan go astray? And He sent against them birds in flocks, striking them with stones of baked clay, so He rendered them like straw eaten up.
