Muhammad Brings Forth A Spring in Mecca

A Persian miniature taken from the Siyer-i Nebi is a Turkish epic about the life of Muhammad, completed around 1388. The Ottoman ruler Murad III commissioned a lavish illustrated copy of the work. The calligrapher Lutfi Abdullah completed the work in 1595. The Prophet Muhammad is always shown veiled. The illustration is captioned: "When Muhammad brought forth a spring in Mecca, however, the people declared he was an evil sorcerer, not a prophet, some in fact, led by the wicked Abu Jahl (blue turban), plotted his death".
