# Muhammad's first revelations at Mecca begin a public recitation corpus as later sira dates it

Date: 610

## The fact

Around 610 CE, as later sira and handbook chronology date it, [Muhammad](/people/muhammad) began reciting short passages at Mecca that communities later collected as Quran. The year is conventional. It is not a surviving cave autograph and not the 1924 Cairo edition. Muhammad's documented role is: He recited short Meccan passages that later communities treated as Quran. Companions memorised; he did not typeset a 1924 Cairo mushaf.

## Context

Mecca was a shrine-and-trade town. Khadija is named as first hearer in the received file. Waraqa is a neighbouring interpreter. Sharing recitation with unnamed early hearers is required. A Wikimedia mosque door is not a lifetime face. The setting of Muhammad's first revelations at Mecca begin a public recitation corpus as later sira dates it is the public file around 0610-01-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver edu-[digital-learning-access](/drivers/edu-digital-learning-access) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

Confidence is stated on the impact path, not hidden in adjectives. Do not convert 1924 print into 610. Do not treat a mosque door as a likeness. Mixed effects of Muhammad's first revelations at Mecca begin a public recitation corpus as later sira dates it are separate paths.

## What is established and what is not

Established: a sourced public record of Muhammad's first revelations at Mecca begin a public recitation corpus as later sira dates it under 0610-01-01 for Muhammad. Established: a sourced public record of Muhammad's first revelations at Mecca begin a public recitation corpus as later sira dates it under 0610-01-01.

Shared responsibility is part of Muhammad's first revelations at Mecca begin a public recitation corpus as later sira dates it. Naming Muhammad does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 0610-01-01 to any measured indicator is not treated as zero. Alternative explanations — weather, other armies, later statutes, or independent cultural change — remain live where the sources do not close them.

If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.

Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, museums, and adaptations are not converted into extra lifetime acts.
